the American and British public (not just 'English' stonebeard) were lied to - Sadam was an ally when Iran was the bogey man and his arnaments came from Uncle Sam - The tyrant was removed and I 'm happy about that - BUT - we were misinformed (FACT).

Would it not be fair then to say that the English brought the bombings upon themselves then?

The British govt did yes.It was not acting on the will of the people-the majority of Brits were against our involvement unlike our American cousins....

It's not my fault if there are some brain-washed, Bush-following-to-the-death, manics who will follow the President and his propaganda until the very end of the world. This is not my fault, nor is the war. And remember, those who supported the war, or at least most of them who were so unlucky as to fall under the hypnotic spell of the White House and CIA propaganda ("false intelligence") actually believed their country was going to be attacked again.

You must remember, two planes didn't crash into London and killl nearly 3,000 of your citizens.

 

We've all suffered from terrorist atrocities,I live 13 miles from Manchester and 20 miles from Warrington....200 miles from London

Nor should we forget whose citizens were the chief benefactors of the IRA ....

Well Stone, Tony is what I call a victim of gray-brainwashing. People like him look at things through gray eyeballs. To them, there's no good or evil. No good guys or bad guys. Everything is nuanced. We must learn to understand the actions of terrorists and sympathize with them. Everytime an atrocity is committed, they try to find some "good" in it. And of course vice versa. It's really a very confusing mental state. But they call it an open mind. But in reality it's basically having no direction at all.


Your problem is that if your side perpetrate a terrorist atrocity it isnt terrorism. If your perceived enemy takes action against you to protect its interests,or the security of its lands then it is terrorism.


To the average Iraqi YOU ARE THE TERRORIST!!!


It isnt about good or evil it is about pointing out wrong. I find no good in any act of terrorism-Arab,Jew,American,Bristish,Irish,Russian,Aghan.All who go out and kill indescriminately-all are equally disgusting filth and anyone who condones this behaviour has lost their humanity and their dignity.


I find it incredible that you wish to qualify slaughter as an issue of right or wrong.


IT IS ALWAYS WRONG!


Will you get it right for once Tony. We are not fighting Iraqis. We are not fighting Bath Party soldiers or Saddam's cronies. We're fighting Al Queda insurgents.

JEEZZ! Don't you know the enemy is? See what I mean about confusion?

But to blame America for terrorist attacks on our allies soil is dodging blame.

BTW: I wouldn't take offense to Oliverstoned's post if he mentioned only Bush as the fault with Bin Laden, but since he accused the whole of America for terrorist attacks commited by fanatics, I can do nothing but take offense.

The USA Government and especially it's military and CIA are the biggest oppressors and terrorists in modern history-FACT.

Funny.  I don't feel oppressed.

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?
