All I have to say is our current president is a war maniac, he's a shame for the Americans (I don't want to say he's an idiot or something).
I don't know about Clinton, Obama, or McCain much, but I think at least they are better than Bush. And I don't want to involve into the political issues right here, just my opinion.

yo man, everyone should just live in peace. unfortunately, lifes not like that. someone needs to take something from someone else. It is americas fault for invading iraq, cause a country that was cool with usa was taking iraqs oil. so how is iraq supposed to respond. sit there and let em take thier oil? bs. obama should win presidental elections. some ppl stopped voting for him cause he was half muslim. fuckin racist faggs. o well, if anythin ever happens here, i live like five minutes away from the us, canada border.

the reason U.S invaded iraq and started a war in the first place is strictly business.Did you know that Bush is a part of a corporation that sells war machines?therefore if he declared war for no apparent reason,hed profit obviously.And i should also add that when 9/11 occured,he let the osama bin laden family free,without interogating them,cuz the bin laden's are business partners with the bush family.its all really messed up and i could go deeper into the subject but thta would be too much too write.And the reason its all killing in the news is cuz hte media chooses what they put obviously.Its like they try to scare you so much that you buy pointless stuff u wont really need like security systems or what not.anyways this is a long enough post

Fuck buddy here in Vancouver racisms all over the place... most of you probably know I have the most common name world so now everytime someone sees a terrorist on tv named "Mohammad" people call me terrorists and they're fucking fags. I showed one of these guys a real terrorist and he shut his mouth forever. Oh yeah and now for the Iraq and America thing. Personally I hate the bloody fuck out of Bush. What I'm about to say isn't neccesarily true for all American Soldiers but its true. They are all fucn fags... dude they're not there to fight a war. They just went to kill innocent civilians. Has anybody heard on the news of American soldiers killing civilians or RAPING them.. Well any country would retaliate after they're people were being made fun of and shit or having their innocent bystanders killed. Oh yeah and now for the Muslims.. Honestly if EVERY Muslim person on this planet was a terrorist we all know half of the Earth would be gone.. A war would be going on every 100 miles. Terrorists all kill people
for the will of god. Well personally I was told killing people in Islam was against gods wills. The ACTUAL reason they're killing Americans is for two reasons.




1. They're families are being killed here and there.

2. If any of you have of the Qu'ran its our holy book. If a muslim does anything against the Qu'ran intentionally they will be punished in the afterlife. In Islam its "haram" to harm another person. The word "Haram" means forbidden. But since the Qu'ran was made around a few thousand years ago.. some of the stuff is still based on that age of time. So those extremists are following that. If anyobdy has heard of the beheadings of some Americans here is the reason why.




[47:4] If you encounter (in war) those who disbelieve, you may strike the necks. If you take them as captives you may set them free or ransom them, until the war ends. Had GOD willed, He could have granted you victory, without war. But He thus tests you by one another. As for those who get killed in the cause of GOD, He will never put their sacrifice to waste.

wow, that cleared a few things up. there are lots of things that are against the Qu'ran arent there? coz my friends family is muslim, and his brother suicided and his mum was so upset coz she was convinced he was going to hell because of it im christian and we dont believe that, so its kinda good to know what different beliefs there are, coz i dont really know much about muslim beliefs

Guys I really hope you don't think that the president of the US actually makes decisions.

I think what he really is is a figure. He can't even speak right, you expect him to make decisions like this, for the country? I'm pretty sure that he has people behind this decision making.

Oh I forgot to mention that verse in the Qu'ran is based on Mohammads time so if they do that today I think it would be considered a sin and they would go to hell.

Thumbs down Re: The World Thread

First off, I'm not religious, my 2 best friends are a muslim, and a christian. We all get along, discuss various beliefs, and appreciate the fact that a lot of our friends are in the military fighting for what they feel is right.

Man, talk about media not reporting. You live in CHINA, your government won't allow most of the REAL information into the news. Damn communists.

[quote=ecthelionI once read somewhere the a huge percentage of the Congress people who ordered the Iraq war actually thought that Iraq was in Africa. [/QUOTE]

I don't think that is true... and, anyways it's only like 400 km away from africa.

SOMALIA! American troops have been there for YEARS trying to stop the civil war, ARE YOU KIDDING ME? If you had some civil war in your country, people killing each other, and the U.S. DIDN'T come to help... you'd be all over their shit for NOT helping. If they do, then you want to jump their shit because THEY HAVE ALTERIOR MOTIVES? Fucking hippocrits!!!

HAHA, a communist from CHINA explaining what the American president is, or isn't.... that's like a blind movie critic that has never watched a movie talking about an academy award winner... all hearsay. Go watch a ballet you dancing queen.

Come on man, he isn't half of a religeon. The guy is christian, yes his birth father is muslim, but he doesn't practice that religeon. What is the point?

I didn't expect a bunch of 14 and 15 year olds to actuall be informed. Get an education, read up on current events, not just the shit that you are force fed. Then start a thread after you have some actual insight.
