Blaming the Jews
This is a pretty comprehensive documentary about the spread of anti-semitism in the Muslim world. I am aware that not all Muslims agree with the ideas expressed in the film by some Muslims, but I also think that this documentary's addressing and dispelling of various conspiracy theories might be good for Lucidthots to see.

That's the problem. These people are still living in the 8th century mentally and spiritually. I see no change coming until after a big war and millions dead shows them that their road is a dead end.

"Why of course the people don't want war ... But after all it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship ... Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger."
~ Hermann Goering, Nazi leader, at the Nuremberg Trials after World War II

Hey - blaming the Jews for everything is much easier than actually thinking, or taking personal responsibility for yourself.

Just read the idiot-Nazi rants of Lucidthots...

It's funny how the same routine plays out over and over again, and still you can't learn from it.

You say this crap.
I point out that Iraq NEVER ATTACKED US.

And then you claim the fact that we weren't attacked is irrelevant, ignoring logic and reason in the process as you avoid the fact that your very response was obliterated, back-peddling madly as you go...

I haven't seen anybody around here complain about attacking the Taliban.
I haven't seen anybody around here complain about going after al Qaeda.

I HAVE seen a couple people say that we don't need to be concerned about the people who orchestrated the whole thing, and who is with absolute certainty planning future attacks.
Funny how that is coming from YOUR side of the aisle though...

And I keep pointing out I never said Iraq attacked us. You just can't get that through your skull. The reason we are in Iraq is not because they attacked us. You are the one who has to keep saying it to make some point which is known only to you. Germany never attacked us either. N. Korea never attacked us. Duh.

Germany was invading other countries that we were allied with.
Was Iraq invading any other countries that we are allied with?
