You're as big a terrorist in your mentality as a bearded crazy. Only ur white and you gotr american citizenship so you don't kill americans.. you kill arabs and muslims. there is no difference man. And it scares the hell outta me.

well all i can hope is that regular people who DON'T compensate for their lacking penile assets, will sit back and watch you animals ( american and muslim terrorists) shoot it out. After that we'll get started on actually helping the world instead of trying to destroy a part of it.
So you want moral equvalency. You want tit for tat. If they kill 3 of us, you think it's okay for us to kill 3 of them. That's not how we won WWII. We dropped fat man and little boy and wiped out 300,000 civilians. Guess what? War over. What is gonna happen if we drop one on Tehran? War over.

If I'm as big a terrorist as that nut job in Iran, the so were Churchill, Roosevelt, and Truman. You don't win wars with moral equivalency. You pound you enemy to dust until they surrender. I guarantee you that one big one on Tehran will stop all the fighting. No more insurgency in Iraq and hezbully dries up and dies. I have the balls to do it. You don't have any barbs on your berries. That's your problem.

Oh no, I was just making sure. I just wanted to confirm your stupidity. See you said the following directed toward Intangible Child:

At least he had the guts to drop the big one a few times. You don't.
To you dropping an atomic bomb on hundreds of thousands of innocent people is a matter of "guts"? Its a matter of insanity. Not to mention even if Intangible Child had the "guts", as you say, obviously he isn't the President of the United States where he has the power of 9,960 nuclear warheads to use at his whim.

Truman had his reasons. They didn't really know what an atomic bomb could do to people, at least in the long term, and Truman wanted to scare the Soviets. Was it right? Hell no. But he had his reasons, and politically, they made sense.

I believe it was right. It was right to save American lives. An invasion into Japan would have cost us Thousands and thousands of dead Amerians. They knew what kind of bomb they had. They did a test explosion in the New Mexico desert. Truman wanted to end the war and he did. If you want to stop terrroism, then blow off the head of the snake in Tehran.

When Americans are being held against their will, tortured, and thrown into death camps by the leaders of America..then your judgement will be correct.

I'm not walking down the street in fear right now..so I really don't think you could compare this administration to Hitler.

That's a hypothetical. Many generals from the time period would have disagree with you. Heck, many military experts still argue over whether it actually saved lives.

If we ever evalute killing that many innocent civilians as a good thing we are completely lost.

Morality is not contingent on religion to exist. Therefore religion only detracts from the purity of morality.
