Terrorism

[SicN Twisted]

“Terrorism is the unlawful use of force or violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives.”

This is the official defintion of terrorism in the US. Code. According to this definition, the United States of America is the world's leading terrorist organization. Even by its own definition the hypocrite U.S. government is guilty of terrorism — on a massive, international scale. And for over 100 years! For over 100 years, and continuing today, the US has broken international law and the geneva convention with brutal use of force and violence against civilians for political gain, awhile not in a state of declared war. Therefore, Americans need to understand that their vague, transparent "war on terror" has no meaning until we try our troops and political leaders for war crimes, and bomb Washington, D.C for funding and committing acts of terror. No citizen of the world's most brutal, internationally repressive terrorist regime has the right to point their finger at any organization in the world for anything, because at the moment, we have the #1 death toll.

Us leading the War on Terror is as logical as me leading a War on Internet Flaming or Good Charlotte leading a War on Shitty Mall Punk.

Go America!

[wheelchairman]

Ah tis like Lenin once said, All Wars are imperialist by nature.

[aavikko]

The Usa uses "pacified by war" politic :mad:

Wow. If that had been in place when I was a freshman in high school, I could have gone after the people who bullied the hell out of me under that definition of terrorism.

[SicN Twisted]

Maybe if they were Arabs...

[Mota Boy]

I have no rebuttal.


The only question is which is more ridiculous - the U.S. definition of terror or the U.S. invasion of Iraq.

[Faded Soul]

you know, I was just thinking about that myself. America is very hypocritical.

agreed, deifinately.

but what would you expect after WTC? its bullshit, but what else were they going to do?

Not invade Iraq?

I would hope 'not invade a country completely unrelated to the attack,' but that's just a hope.

[Little_Miss_1565]

Not invade Iraq?

GOD DAMN IT, you beat me to it, WCM.

But in my defense...great minds think alike.

[wheelchairman]

Flattery will get you everywhere. I was gonna comment on it, but then again, there are plenty of times where I don't read page two when I want to reply, so it's by pure dumb luck that I have not done the same thing.

WTC or no WTC Iraq was in the crosshairs and had been for a long time.

it was just a coincidental convenience that the WTC attacks happened, it just sped it along.

[Nina]

thats just what i wanted to say =o
i wish 9/11 had not happened. that way bush might
have attacked iraq and more people would have
gotten pissed.
just a thought.

[Fallen.]

yeah it was totally like the Jews with Israel after WW2.

for some reason the US thought that "oh we've been attacked as a people so that means we have the right to do what we want cos we'll just point at the WTC when anyone complains".

[Fallen.]

Note: nothing against Jews. i know they can get touchy. although, what Israel did to the Palestinians is disgusting.

[wheelchairman]

Do not confuse Zionists with Jews.

[Fallen.]

Fair point.

[SicN Twisted]

What Israel continues to do to the Palestinians is disgusting, illegal state terrorism. The only way to make justice in Israel is to put Sharone in jail for war crimes and try is the Israeli Army as a terrorist organization.
