Quote from candletrader:

... when the US empire eventually deteriorates (and it will, thankfully, ultimately deteriorate), I would like to see a global environment with competing systems of similar strength, in order to ensure a backdrop of geopolitical checks and balances... perhaps China, global Islam and a unified Europe will be the new players in such a system, and hopefully the interplay of these competing systems will prevent the hegemonistic situation that the world was faced with under the USA...

My only fear is that the US hegemony will take a while to die out, since it has infiltrated the 4 corners of the planet through puppets, proxies and military bases... I only hope it happens within my lifetime but, alas, I may be robbed of this experience, since the process of empire degradation is likely to take longer than a few decades...

Quote from candletrader:

This is precisely the sort of rhetoric that leaves the civilized world with no choice but to take appropriate action against the criminal foreign policies of the USA...

Quote from candletrader:

My wager is that the USA and the pathetic poodles who lap up America's droppings (UK, Australia) will attack Iraq in defiance of the UN... with regards to the USA breaching international law, the civilized world will tell the USA that it got what it deserved, when the Islamic people take their revenge on the USA...

Quote from candletrader:

If the eskimos ruled Iraq, the USA would be threatening to bomb the eskimos... this is categorically not about Islam... its about the USA's pursuit of geopolitical domination and resource control...

1.10pm EST: The first day of A-day seems to be about over... that was BEAUTY IN MOTION... just amazing stuff!! That'll teach the terrorists to never attack us again... we shoulda gotten more than a few thousand killed in this glorious first night of A-day... we are slowly but surely gettin' our retribution...

Well done USAF and Navy, we love ya!

Quote from candletrader:
It is my (unsubstantiated, gut feel) belief that the Evil Iraqis are being supplied advanced weaponry by the Evil French, Evil Russians, Evil Germans, Evil Chinese, Evil Iranians, Evil Pakistanis, Evil Saudis, Evil Europeans and Evil Far Eastern countries (and probably many other Evil Countries too)...

I strongly believe that the Evil World is either arming or supporting the Evil Iraqis to murder our brave American heros...

Quote from candletrader:


Let us never forget September 11th... we will never let that happen again... we will do whatever it takes to defend ourselves, in our brave battle against the Evil Doers... and we have every right to keep the oil, so that the evil doers are economically punished for their evilness...

Quote from candletrader:

May God Bless you all, May God Bless our Brave Soldiers in their battle against the Iraqi evil doers and May God Bless America...

Anyone else bothered by this? From "the civilized world will tell the USA it got what it deserved" to "let us never forget September 11th..." I don't think this shit is funny. Not at all.
 
Quote from OPTIONAL777:



You mean bothered enough to place him on ignore?

Or bothered enough to try to make a case against him?

Bothered enough to call a spade a spade.
 
this shit is offensive and is totally inappropriate on an american capitalist trading web site and should not be allowed by the moderators. This site is private property and and privately owned, and the owners are not required to allow this kind of stuff. Candletrader can make his own website or go to a more appropriate web site with this shit. If the moderators allow this they are freely choosing to do so and deserve whatever consequences arise from it.

Why not just put him on ignore?

Don't like what's on? Block the channel.
 
More importantly, who gives a rat's ass? Don't we all post in the chit-chat forum for entertainment purposes only? Perhaps Candletrader had a change of heart -- or perhaps his political views are more in depth than what we can conclude from just a few posts in the chit-chat area.

He's got some personality, which is nice. I don't think he's disruptive like other people (Vinny and crew).

I was against this war before it started and I have since changed my views and now support the war. People's opinions change when they learn new facts.
 
darkhorse,
you of all people being so well written (- no put down - sincerely meant) will know that it is his rather overdone attempt at sardonic irony. What's wrong is he doesn't know when a surfeit becomes counter productive and starts to make the practitioner look a little silly to say the least
 
us regular candle watchers pointed that out a while ago...

still, candle is but a man, and thus liable to err. life's too short to spend rebuking those with whom we disagree (yes, i've learnt).

build bridges, don't burn them.

much love to ya candle. keep the open mind. it beats a foolish consistency any day!

:)

So true. Facts can change everything.

I even remember when you talked so much about trading, and the fact was that you didn't know shit.
