Lately I have spent way too much time defending America's actions around the world. I have been posting on Kevin Sites Hotzone from yahoo. These people are haters of America, they don't want to hear the truth, they just want to hate. Excerpts of my defense:
The article we are suppose to be talking about seems to have fallen into the neverending Bush haters. So back to the article. I love this statement "On Sept. 13, 2001, one such angry American, Patrick Cunningham, tried to start a fire in my local mosque's garage." ....... Ok 1 drunk American does something stupid and he is equal to OBL! This is what the author is saying. Basically she is comparing the intolerant Americans who subjugate all the minorities to the Muslim world (sarcasm). Hey let's not forget about the 350 children in Beslan murdered by self proclaimed martys! The thousands if Iraqi's killed by suicide bombers, the millions killed in Africa..... all in the name of Islam. Come on folks , wake up and smell the coffee, we can attack a lot "muslim nations" and have plenty of reason to do so. Less we forget Lockerby Scotland, we should of bombed the hell out of Mohmar Kadiffi (sp). The attack on the USS Stark in 1988 was enough to destroy Iraq. The KLA in Kosovo was responsible for thousands of deaths. America seems pretty forgiving to me. The US is moderate as far as our reactions to all the attacks perpetrated by Muslims, supported by "Muslim Nations". Where are the voices of the moderate Muslims. I never here them speak out in these forums about how awful it is that these groups do this in the name of Islam, they sit back and complain about how America reacts to being attacked. How America is evil, last time I looked we didn't send SFO into a Iranian Schools and kill all its children! So you left wing looneys take a look in the mirror, read a little history and understand these people will kill you just like they kill their neighbors. I would rather fight them in the streets of Iraq with the best trained Army in the world intsead of trying to stop them before they get on a bus, plane or subway here in the U.S.

Now this is for Gildo20032002. I can't believe I am responding to your fanaticism...but I must. Do your research! As a doctor you must realize the effects of nerve agents, if not ask the Kurds! You talk as if everyone in the country of Iraq loved Saddam, you must watch too much CNN instead of doing your own research. Also Iraq started this war in 1988 with the attack on the USS Stark. You are just angry because America is defeating facism. The previous Iraqi goverment was responsible for attacking it's neighbors at a whim, well they won't do that anymore. My advice is take the time to read some of the moderate Iraqi websites, you may possibly have a different veiw on what is really occuring there. Also some Iraqi's may not want us occupying their country. I would bet it is the same percentage of Germans that didn't want us occupying their country in 1945. For a being an educated person (doctor) I am suprised that you are so ignorant on the facts of the middle east.

gildo20032002- I understand what you are saying, I just don't agree. Under your logic (innocent people dieing) we should of not been involved in WW2. 12 million people died in that war, and a majority of them were civilians. Germany was no direct threat to the U.S.in 1942. But the U.S. understood that if Hitler would of stayed in power that he would of progressed into a threat to the entire world. If we would of not intervened Hitler would have developed a nuclear weapon and subjugated the entire world into his facist beliefs. Now you tell me how this is any different. Iraq was a threat, we changed regimes, the world is a better place with out Saddam and his influence in the middle east, and someday you will realize that, but I doubt you will admit it.
