As expected you've failed to come up with a single example of a principled country but you bash the US for human rights violations in China and for the unwillingness of the world community and your beloved UN to deal with these violations. Why am I not surprised?Quote from ZZZzzzzzzz:
So you are saying we are unprincipled, okay, I agree.

Your self-righteous rants and holier than thou attitude is an embarrassment to the causes you claim to represent.

Hmm, how about extending your logic just a tad:
Fukuyama = Neocon = Japanese = supporter of the war in Iraq
Colin Powell/Condi Rice = Neocons = blacks = African americans = supporters of the war in Iraq
Bush = Neocon = Evangelical = supporter of the war in Iraq.
Silvio Berlusconi = Neocon = Catholic = Vatican = strong supporter of the war in Iraq.
So do you think the war in Iraq was for Israel or Japan or Africa or Vatican or the Evangelical church or all of the above. Frankly the stupidity of simpletons reaching conclusions based on the fact that several neocons were jewish is astonishing. [/QUOTE
War in Iraq is for pro Israel influence in America.
Heck there were Mossad agents hangin out in Jersey watching the planes fly into the WTC on 9/11.
How much does the AIPAC pay you for your efforts?

I never thought you had the ability to handle the truth, this was confirmed when you claimed you would leave ET a couple of times, then slunk back like a skunk in heat...and once again, true colors...true colors...

As an American, I am highly qualified to criticize what is supposed to be a vastly "Christian" nation, but does not follow the path of Jesus Christ. I am not aware that China is a Christian nation, and their lack of concern for human rights is not surprising in any way...but this country preaches constantly that we are better than other countries on a moral platform, but it is just a facade to make money and have economic control.
That we ignore human rights issues on the basis of how it impacts our economic bottom line shows that we are not a Christian nation at all, we are a materialistic capitalistic fraudulent morally unprincipled nation.
I understand this doesn't bother you personally, maybe you are of a belief system that puts human rights below economic expansionism and ignoring human rights issues, and are likely driven by greed beyond self preservation to extreme limits, but it bothers some people, so they speak out.
That you call me self righteous, speaks to the heart of the matter, as what I am saying is true, and it is not my righteousness, but the false righteousness of Judeo Christian Americans who sell their soul for the economic bottom line.
Those who have a heart would feel guilty...those who don't simply ignore the issue at hand, namely abusive treatment of the primarily Buddhist nation, Tibet.
Perhaps if this was happening to Israeli Jews, or Christians...Americans would care.
I am afraid you're not alone. I keep wondering how many people he (and his ilk) turned off from voting democratic by his absurd views and dishonest, hypocritical, meaningless, self-righteous rants. If he was Rove plant he could hardly have discredited the modern left more than he has and could hardly have done more damage to the causes he claims to promote.Quote from traderNik:
You have singlehandedly changed my politics by showing me the absolute worst of the extreme Left.

Quote from fhl:
You have little understanding of the function of leadership from a christian perspective, although you apparently feel that you have it all figured out.
Christians are indeed supposed to be selfless and look out for the other guy.
Christian leaders are to look out for the people they lead as well as offer assistance to others (countries, etc.)
Making sure that the people you lead have a vibrant economy so they can pay their bills, etc. is not a selfish act, it is the function of a leader to look out for the people they are leading. The function of a leader is NOT to sacrifice his people, it is to help them. (and don't give me any crap about sacrificing the military men and women. that is their job)
This misunderstanding of the role of christian leadership is pervasive on the left. Always wanting to sacrifice someone else.
