If we didn't have help in those wars in our infant years, the USA would not exist. The French helped as well. We seem to be taking all of the credit for our own freedoms. If we didn't have help, where do you think we'd be today?
Also, I am not wrong about this war being about finishing what Bush, Sr. didn't finish (i.e. Bush, Sr. would've LOVED to have brought down Saddam . . . hint, hint) and the oil. It is NOT about morals or freedoms. How can you sit there and say it is? What freedoms that are written in the Constitution are we directly protecting by attacking Iraq? The only freedoms I know about are included in the Constitution. PLEASE correct me if I am wrong. I know you will. (hint the sarcasm.) We aren't protecting freedom of the press or speech (i.e. Patriot Act, which isn't a war), the right to bear arms, the right to assemble and peacefully protest, etc. Americans are too stupid to protest the Patriot Act because the whole propaganda that Bush, Jr. spread about Americans giving up some freedoms to protect others. Who decides which ones are the most important?
What morals are we protecting? Last time I checked, the USA was not the beacon of morality as Americans like to preach that our country is. Seems to me like the word "hypocrites" can be thrown in the conversation now. I also didn't know the USA had a morality code that citizens were to follow. Where is that written in the law books or Constitution? Please correct me if I am wrong, but I didn't know I had to live by another's set of morals. I thought I lived by my own.

I translated what I wanted to say into several languages. For the asian languages you'll probably need those language packs for the characters to show up on your screen. Basically I wanted to make sure the point got across without any cultural or lingual impediments.

Rudey,
I have only looked at your multi-lingual post because I have you on ignore. I tried to decipher anything intelligent in your posts. Why don't you post something worthwhile and meaningful instead of calling someone or something someone says stupid? Remember two of those "freedoms" we're "defending" and "fighting for" by attacking Iraq is the freedom of speech and peaceful protest.

So I'm blocking your freedom of speech? Yes this war was about baseball and oil you little einstein you. And to a certain other person I've already determined you were a liar and had trouble reading, so please don't talk too much before you hurt yourself.

I didn't call anyone anything. I didn't name any names. But I do remember someone lying and someone also not being able to read something I wrote and making themselves look dumb in the process. Even if I named names, who is insulting someone? What do you call someone who lies? What do you call someone who can't read, doesn't apologize for the mistake, and goes off on a passionate tirade?

Seriously though could you enlighten me on what to call someone who lies and what to call someone who can't read?
