Let's assume, for the sake of argument, that Arabs are the worst possible group of people imaginable.
Okay, how would that possibly justify the actions of Marines killing babies?
Rather than a rationalization of our wrong actions by pointing to someone else and saying they have done worse, just give us the skinny on how any American could possible support the killing of babies by US soldiers?
Bush has labeled countries as evil, which I suppose is his way of saying we are good.
We liberated Iraq...were the people we liberated evil, because Iraq was some supposed member of an axis of evil?
Okay, then how is that we the good, could possible be responsible for Abu Gharib or such atrocities? Are we made evil by the actions of a few?
Isn't it just possible that this is not a black and white situation at all, where we are all good, and they are all evil...that many good people can at times act in ways that are considered evil, and the actions of a government are not necessarily the representation of the people who are under their rule.
This attempt to smear All Americans by the actions of some Marines, or to smear all Iraqis because of the actions of Saddam, etc. doesn't help to foster any sense of goodness at all that I can see....
What makes situations like Abu Gharib or the actions of the Marines look so bad to the world, is that we have claimed to be the good that is fighting the evil....
Quote from jem:
I will explain your b.s. when you first explain how some arabs can blow up civiliams of all ages on a routine basis. And how other arab clergy can encourage it. And it is not always jews but Iraqis and and asians and middle easterns in Jordan.
Do you want to play the whose culture is better game? Perhaps you wish to leave Canada and return to your homeland?
