I agree. I love debating and have no problem with it. But if you think refutation is about non-sensical fallacies and generalizations--not even concise arguments, then there's no point. |

besides come on, I hear abortion can be fun. It brings out the little kid in you. |

I'm not going bankrupt, I have a Costco membership so gas is cheaper for me. :) Besides, when I went to Canada it was a LOT more expensive for gas and I've been told Europe is worse. I don't think war on terror in itself is a bad idea, the execution was just piss poor, especially toward the end(?). Quote:

And seriously, I agree. The greatest good for the greatest number---think of it from utilitarianism ethics perspective. |
Quote:
The war on terror is a war you can't win though, it's not like going to war with a country you're invading. They're busy killing "suspected" terrorists right now, but that's only the top level there will always be more to take their place. Only know did the US open up talks with the Taliban, it took this long but I think they probably figured out they can't win this the old fashioned way. |
Quote:
It's too late now but to really end it focusing on the KNOWN terrorist cells and being less... understanding... would have been the best way to go. Talks won't work over the long haul, and I'm tired of hearing about how war is pointless, seriously. War is a horrible thing and a lot of people suffer when they shouldn't have to but without it we would all be in some serious trouble. We just needed to strike harder, faster, and not get distracted. Sometimes you have to kill a few hundred innocent people to make an omelet. |

Damn Republicans. :cool: |

Again more or less the Utilitarianism philosophy (greatest good for the greatest number--utilizing the best methods to maximize the most pleasure you can over potential pain) |
Terror is an emotion, terrorism is a tactic. "War on terror/terrorism" is a metaphor. The people making policy know that. The point is not to eradicate either, but to make terrorism so difficult to carry out against the U.S. that catastrophic terrorism(i.e. 9/11) is effectively impossible. This was never going to be a war waged only militarily - that was said at the outset. We threw the Taliban out of power through a combination of military action and political maneuvering with the various factions in Afghanistan. We also managed to keep Karzai in power through diplomacy and luck, NOT simply by becoming his enforcer.
As it stands, we have a mostly democratic government in Afghanistan and a pro-Western leader there. Al Qaeda has not been able to strike the U.S. directly, though it has struck our allies. Osama remains at large but is his ability to carry out attacks seems greatly diminished. The Taliban is resurgent and this will be a challenge in the coming years. |
I feel bad for laughing at the abortion joke. :( :( :(
and I agree with kemal, I also think Osama is very ill/or dead. |

How can you beat Terrorism? You can't. There are always going to be those out there that are full of hate and will act on it. You have to defend yourself and be careful but a war was the complete wrong way to go about. Just another chance for the USA to police the world. And our government was retarded enough to get involved. What has it got us? MORE TERRORISTS! They're more pissed off now than they've ever been! Pull the troops out, sit down and talk. It worked with Carter when he got Egypt and Israel to just sit, talk and work things out.
About the abortions - I'm pro choice. I think certain circumstances it can be ok. Such as a Rape victim who is poor and wouldn't be able to give the baby a good life. It's not a pleasant thing but it is sometimes acceptable. I wouldn't want a girl I got pregnant to get an abortion,but she's the one who has to carry it around for 9 months so it's mainly down to her. As for the joke, it was a clever pun. |
Quote:
As for abortions in rape cases, it's VERY unlikely for a woman to get pregnant from rape due to the amount of stress caused to the body among other things. |
Quote:
But then, if some smart leader came to power, sat down, spoke with your country about changing things to make your way of life better, you would be grateful and willing to listen. I know I would, and so would many others. As for children of rape, it is unlikely, but it does happen. I recently learned that one of my closest friends mother was raped several years ago and got pregnant with a girl, but aborted it because it was straining things with her and her husband and it was all too much to bare. |

So, the 'compromise' would be that we allow them to kill us, or we all decide to convert to the religious views of some insane extremists Neither of those options that would please THEM, will work for us...I can't imagine how TALKING to them could help when we will NEVER say what they want to hear...So, there will be conflict I believe that with the passage of years, people have forgotten that we TRIED to 'talk' to Sadam...He refused to comply with UN inspectors for years, they looked the other way, allowing him to do whatever he wanted while stealing UN aid from his people (aid that he shouldn't have been receiving because he wasn't keeping his end of the deal), and killing his people...We gave him MONTHS to let the UN inspectors in...He refused...We warned him for WEEKS that we were serious, and that we WOULD attack...We even gave him the date and the hour!...He STILL refused...If he had nothing to hide, why not let the inspectors in? Talking did nothing. |
Fuck politics and politiians.Its all bullshit all the people are full of shit etc....Glad you had fun!
