Which country is the biggest threat to world peace? Is it the US with Cowboy Bush leading the way? Is it Israel with their invading neighbours and the continued occupation? Is it perhaps Iran with their so called nuclear program and threats to attack if Israel hits Syria? Or by chance is it N.Korea with their crazy murderous dictator and his dong missiles that threaten to throw the whole region into conflict? poll coming

Most likely North Korea, on the basis of the fact that their government is not founded on so much as a shred of rationality. They desire international attention, and the only way they seem to be able to get any is to behave poorly, and not to mention unilaterally. All the other countries listed do not behave solely unilaterally. Only North Korea does.

Who would want world peace?

Seriously, what manner of immature doctrine does it take to try and acheive something so meaningless? World peace.. that doesn't sound human.. if the world is completely aligned with one another, how can change come about? How can problems be solved? War is a nesscarey tool to weedout the wrong from the right. It is the cycle of nature just on a differant scale. We are not above the law of Earth.

The only plausible way for world peace would be 1984. Or in liberal's case, A Brave New World. I suggest you read it. It's a very disturbing image and it seems more and more liberals are turning to that direction of trying ti innitate that kindof life for us.

World Peace...

Because it's impossible. Just like a perfect version of Communism, as long as one man wants more than the other man, he'll do whatever it takes to get it. As long as one person hates how another person is, then there will be no Peace.

Who?

Well, let's see here. From the start back in 1948, Britain and France would have been excellent sources for weaponry and other such devices. They might well have turned to Soviet Russia as well had they had no alternative.

Coming into modern times, China would be another excellent source, as would black market arms from the collapsed economy of Russia. You see, it's not that hard to come up with alternatives. The Israelies didn't care where they got their support and weapons: only that they got them.

Of the countries on the poll, North Korea and US tie in first place, and Israel takes second.
Israel's in second because it has some sort of recognizeable reasoning behind it's erratic and bizare decisions - it's surrounded by enemies that are hellbent on wiping it off the map.
The US so far has caused more destruction in it's random rampages than North Korea, but it's arguable that if we had a competent president we would've saved all our military power for when it's needed rather than on some invasion to make the president feel like a big boy, and while North Korea's idiot acts as of late haven't caused nearly the destruction, it is doing them completely unprovoked, targeting more innocent nations, and it's messing with nukes.
I don't want to hear anything about how North Korea needs aid so badly - it managed to raise the world's 4th largest military, and South Korea has managed to become a prosperous industrial nation, so there's no reason why the North has to be in the kind of shape it's in. If it's government wasn't so weak that it had to resort to being a militaristic dictatorship then that place could be doing pretty well for itself.

So I tied the two based on how both countries have brought their troubles upon themselves, NK for going out of it's way to be retarded, and US for also having incompetent leadership where it counts, and while the US's meaningless invasion of Iraq has caused more widespread loss, it's not even close to the extent or danger of what North Korea's trying to cause.

Although I admit I don't criticize Bush for the way he's handling North Korea and Afghanistan nearly as much as I do for his handling of Iraq. The Taliban was asking to get their asses blasted, and North Korea is the kind of enemy you don't want to necessarily rush to war against but don't want to just sit back and take your own sweet time in dealing with either.

Yes. We're speaking about no U.S. support ever. The Soviet Union, as amazing as it might seem, was a global power for a large portion of Israel's history. China would pick up the slack when the Soviet Union collapsed, since Israel would latch onto the nearest available significant source of funding, and China would be all too eager to take such a useful pawn in world affairs into its hands.

But why they would have been so interested about Israel? For religious reasons? Obviously not. Soviet Union's strategic allies were Turkey and Egypt, they have also supported Palestinians' cause, PLO etc. (which, I admit, might not be the case if USA hadn't supported Israel)

Anyhow, USA would have supported one of the countries in the Middle East and Soviet Union would have supported some other country. It could have been Israel, I give you that.

The only reason the Soviet Union supported most Arabian countries in the first place was due to the U.S. support of Israel. We could just have easily ended up with a reverse outcome, where the U.S. supported most Arabian nations.(Which would definitely have been a rather odd situation. Makes one wonder if we'd have ever had to dealt with radical Islamic terrorists attacking the U.S.)

Who is the greatest threat to world peace?


Islam
Rubiconic Crossings

I'll take this as a serious proposition.

Who is the greatest threat to world peace?

I doubt any of the countries you mention would have the capacity to cause world decimation. They might be agents and fight the fight but they would not be the cause.

Countries will not use nukes. They cannot. Any nation using nukes would be obliterated so fast that you would not be able to say 'duck and cover'. This is the reality. Even North Korea will not use nukes. Sure they could concievabley hit a few population centres but the retaliation would be complete. Not even a nuclear retalitation. Understand that North Korea exists due to the Chinese not wanting to have to deal with Koreans inside of China. The rest of the Korean saga such as the DMZ and the American presence in the region is secondary to this understanding.

Who would stop China from invading North Korea? They have a track record of invasion to boot!

That is all that can be said of North Korea. A smoke screen.

Is China a possibility? To be honest I would have to say that I wonder if the China we know today will be the same in 20 or 30 years time. There is much stress in that country between citizens and government. Add a dash of capitalism...well we've seen China's economy grow year by year by roughly 8% or 9% for at least the last 6 years.

China is the largest investor in Africa. Now how's that for geopolitics?

The main problem I can see with China is its sheer size. There are already provinces that are unstable with Islamic activities. The huge rural economy is in upheaval and yet the government has purchased a number of mobile execution vehicles. These are the real deal when it comes to death on wheels. They even have uplinks so that state officials can witness executions remotely.

Makes Gitmo sound like heaven.

China will either break apart or become more restrictive. Either way will dispose China from looking for global hegemony.

A break up would involve a civil war. That would be catastrophic for China as an entity. It would also be horrifically bloody. This could also raise the spectar of the ultimate horror. A government turning a nuke on one of thier own cities. China has the nukes. Has it the cajones to do that to restore order?

Because that is the only way that the Communist Party could retain control ultimately. Of course this is a last stand scenario.

Would other countries intervene before things escalated to that level? Now hows that for a can of worms?

If China becomes more restirctive, which it seems it is with its 'death on wheels' project, it will become introspective. This is the way of Communists. Think East Germany on an even larger scale.

Of course they can kiss any capitalism projects goodbye and Hong Kong will become a resort for the party elite.

Think high tech feudal....

Ultimately China is hard to predict but I don't think they are a threat to world peace.

My hope is that a middle course is steered and that over the long term capitalism brings the freedoms it needs to thrive.

Russia. Ahh Russia. I think the Sov thing is dead in the water. I really don't see Russia using nukes. Pretty much for the reasons I gave for North Korea.

Nukes assure your death. You do not use them. Anyway Russia has its own backyard to clean up first.

There is one aspect that does make pause for thought. Gas. Russia will be the EU's main gas supplier sooner or later. North Sea gas is running out.

Please forgive this train of thought but please bear with me. The UK is currently thinking of its energy strategy. Do you think market forces or strategic resource? Do you minimise risk but increase cost or go the other way?

These little nuances are part of the global geopolitical game. However all games have rules and using nukes is out.

So the UK is thinking if becoming tied to Russia for its energy needs while still maintaining its 'special relationship' with the US is feasible. I hasten to add that I hope this is the case but I have seen little evidence of joined up thinking in the current New Labour regeme.

So the game gets complex. Thats how war comes into the game. Its the way we conclude disputes. Of course war is waged on many fronts. From culture to economic and military.

Back to the countries.

Iran. A threat in so much any terror sponsoring country is a threat. They can cause an awfull lot of damage. But as a threat to world peace? No. If peace was wanted in that region there would be.

As the dance of politics flows through our world one can observe that this is so. Even on both sides the talkingheads say they want peace. The region will explode eventually and I doubt there is much anyone can do about that. Even without American interference I still think that is the case.

Are there chances of nukes? Possible. Not aimed at the US though. If anything another Arab city. Or a European city. After Isreal has been dealt with. When push comes to shove the Saudi's will let loose their F-15's against the Isreali F-15's etc etc etc.

But once again I don't think this will happen. Isreal will not get nuked. Iran nukes Isreal. With what...one or two? Isreal strikes back. The US would not allow anything out of any other country in the region until Isreal was finished. Even the Saudi's. Remember...The US has Iraq now. It does not need the Saudi's. In the long term that is.

What about Iraq? Not as a threat but the question of oil. The US is staying there long term. A US company even developed chocolate that does not melt!

Of course the US will stay until it is thrown out. If that happens the US will find another source. South America looks inviting.

I'm rambling now LOL

Suffice it to say that the truely greatest threat to world peace are ideas...

There *is* a roadmap to peace. It involves taking out all those that keep attacking the rest of the world.

The world has slowly become a much more peaceful place since the Spanish American War. However, since everything is reported so well these days, it seems much worse...

2500 American dead in Iraq over 3 years? Tragic.
But consider the standards a mere 90 years back (1 July 1916): 19,240 Britons dead in ONE DAY. What do you call that? Monsterous?

The Middle East & Venezuela: OPEC is all about the terrorism!

To me, it really isn't about countries or nations or terrorists or 'ebul corporations'.

Until the very last shred of hatred, ignorance and greed is gone from the world, there will never be world peace. I'm not spouting some kind of New Age idea, it's just that true peace must be both internal and external. Even if there was no physical war, 'world peace' would not be guaranteed.


Now you see why the idea seems implausible to say the least, but I do not think it is impossible.

World Peace must be established before it can be threatened. Think of World Peace as a baby and these "threats" as a Dingo. The Dingo can't eat the baby when it is in the womb. And if you ask me, world peace hasn't even been concieved yet. Except in the minds of wishful thinkers.:(

No better or worse than neocons.
Except that Neoconservatism is an actual ideology, defined and known as neoconservatism.
The prefix "neo" can denote that many of the movement's founders, originally liberals, Democrats or from socialist backgrounds, were new to conservatism, but can also refer to the comparatively recent emergence of this "new wave" of conservative thought, which coalesced in the early 1970s from a variety of intellectual roots in the decades following World War II. It also serves to distinguish the ideology from the viewpoints of "old" or traditional American conservatism.

Islamofascism is a made-up word, a giant Godwin if you will.
Islamofascism is a neologism and political epithet used to compare the ideological or operational characteristics of certain modern Islamist movements with European fascist movements of the early 20th century, neofascist movements, or totalitarianism. Organizations that have been labeled Islamofascist include Al-Qaeda, the current Iranian government,[1] the Taliban, the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, and Hezbollah. None label themselves fascist, however, and critics of the term argue that associating the religion of Islam with fascism is both offensive and historically inaccurate.

There *is* a roadmap to peace. It involves taking out all those that keep attacking the rest of the world.
No, it means taking the bull by the horn and wrestling it to the ground. It has to begin with a negotiated peace between Israel and the Palestinians. The US by invading Iraq, and sabre rattling with Iran and NK, certainly avoids the process that should be taking place.

The world has slowly become a much more peaceful place since the Spanish American War.
I guess you know nothing of two world wars that killed tens of millions of people? Plus all the other sundry of wars that killed tens of millions more. Yup, real peaceful.

2500 American dead in Iraq over 3 years? Tragic.
But consider the standards a mere 90 years back (1 July 1916): 19,240 Britons dead in ONE DAY. What do you call that? Monsterous?
What will be the death toll when the whole Middle East erupts into one gigantic war? BTW, nice of you to minimize the effects of the Iraq War by only declaring the number of US troops that have died. How about the tens of thousands of Iraqis that have been killed....or don't they fit into your equation?

What negotiated peace would this be? The one that involves Israel being picked up and moved out of the Middle East? Because you and I both know that that is the ONLY acceptable solution to most of the Arabs. :rolleyes:

Actually, I'd posit that the US waving the sabre put bin Laden back into hiding, killed off tens of thousands of people that hate you, me, women's rights, tolerance, and the various freedoms you and I take for granted every day.

No I guess you know nothing of two world wars that killed tens of millions of people? Plus all the other sundry of wars that killed tens of millions more. Yup, real peaceful.

Yes, and let's look at their aftermaths: today the world boasts a relatively peaceful and united Europe for the first time since Rome, but under self governance. There hasn't been a big war in Asia since Korea, and that in many respect was housekeeping from WW2.

Humans cannot always settle things in negotiation. :(

Compare that to centuries past: The Tartars, the Huns, the Huns. Napoleon. Most areas couldn't go a decade without a conflict.

Good question, and only time will tell.
However, given that Europe and Asia are BOTH more peaceful as a result of the major wars, and that parts of the Middle East have been since the various Israeli conflicts (ie: Egypt and Jordan), I take it as an unfortunate necessity.

Let's face it: history has been one big run of man trying to define the world, shape it in his image. Often these images clashed, and there was conflict.
The world of today is at an interesting point: with the exceptions of 5 Communist states and a chunk of the Middle East, the world has mostly agreed on a kind of government. That's huge.

I don't give an Iraqi death toll because it's disputed. It certainly isnt anywhere near the 100.000 or more some would claim. However, how many Iraqis did Saddam kill yearly? How many killed in Iraq are foreign fighters?

Nice try, perhaps you should reading a little history?

I can just as easily point to Norwegian whaling or Canadian seal clubbing as being reasons why those countries are anti-environemental (if I believed that) and it would not make it a reason to go out and kill whalers or furriers.

Why, because Human Rights Watch is a tool of the Bush administration??? Do you want more examples - they are not hard to find.

You cannot admit that Saddam was an evil person, and that we did the Iraqis a HUGE favor - by the way you avoided the poll I posted on that subject also.


HERE it is!!!!!!!



The Iraqis want you gone yesterday. The longer you stay, the greater the cost, and more you will lose.

This is not the case! The Iraqi's want us to leave when the Iraqi govt. is able to handle things themselves. THAT is what the (again) misreported polls say. Actually here is a quote from ABC news regarding this:Specifically, 26 percent of Iraqis say U.S. and other coalition forces should "leave now" and another 19 percent say they should go after the government chosen in this week's election takes office; that adds to 45 percent. Roughly the other half says coalition forces should remain until security is restored (31 percent), until Iraqi security forces can operate independently (16 percent), or longer (5 percent).http://abcnews.go.com/International/PollVault/story?id=1389228
Notice they try to spin a 52-45% spread as almost equal. Disregard the fact that try to lump the "leave after elections" in the "leave iraq now" figures. Those that wanted us to wait after the elections (19%) - apparantly saw we were doing some good there! Only 26% wanted us to leave immediately.

Perhaps "who will start WWIII" would've been a better way of phrasing it. As it is, there is no serious answer to this question. Hence, why I'd vote for "Your Mom"

In the last 40 years which country has started, or taken part in the most wars. other than Israil, which you could argue was 1 long war.

In the last 8 years which country has invaded the most sovrign coutnrys.

Which country claims that it guards 'freedom and democracy' and then proceeds to attempt to pull down other democratically elected goverments.

Which country has named an 'axis of evil' and has invaded one of those 3 countrys on extreamly questionable motives, which seem to have more to do with the fact that the said coutnry has oil than the fact the country actually had WMD's.

Which country is now making very, very agressive noises at another member of this axis of evil.

Which coutnry constantly supports a hostile and imperialistic power in the Middle East, no matter what human rights violations they carry out.

Which country has the highest millitary funding in the world.

Which country hads a close freind to there president that says 'Wiping all the towel-heads out would be a good thing.'

Any answers?

Oh, and Britian/the Ludendoff Offensive saved everyones asses in WW1 and russia saved us in WW2, arguyably it could be said that the US saved Berlin from communist occupation via the Marshall plan and the BErlin airlift but thats only arguable.

To all the dimwits who answered "The US" to this: :upyours:

You really do need to get a firmer grip on the reality of the world. How many times does America have to save your sorry butts for you to think, "Well, you know ... maybe saving my ass was a pretty good thing."


Eutrusca,

I have a deep respect for you, and everything you have done. Thank you for your service to the United States. This probably means jack shit to you, but I am honored to be able to debate with someone who has had your experiences.

We have many times saved the world, however, I personally feel that the current administration has made a mockery of what the US stands for, and I feel that they are a destabilizing factor.

The US in its self is not a hazard, but those who run it are.

World peace is a myth, like King Arthur. There has never been such a practice and without serious socail devolpment on a world wide scale it never will be. One can not threaten something that does not exist.

In the last 40 years which country has started, or taken part in the most wars. other than Israil, which you could argue was 1 long war.

Which country has been called upon to help fight communist insurgents. Who answered that call.

In the last 8 years which country has invaded the most sovrign coutnrys.

Nice time frame selection and way to ignore the reasons behind it.

Which country claims that it guards 'freedom and democracy' and then proceeds to attempt to pull down other democratically elected goverments.

Not the U.S. - guess again.

Which country has named an 'axis of evil' and has invaded one of those 3 countrys on extreamly questionable motives, which seem to have more to do with the fact that the said coutnry has oil than the fact the country actually had WMD's.


Extremely Questionable????

Lets look - North Korea!!!! Population starving to death while their "dear leader" aggressively move to threaten Japan and South Korea with Nuclear weapons and oh by the way - is one of the main sponsors of terrorists.

Next on the list: Iraq - now here we had a real peach of a leader. In ONLY four instances, the death toll from this WONDERFUL regime killed enough people to average more than 71,000 violent deaths per year. (and not of the car accident type - they were killed by Saddam) He twice invaded his neighbors without any justification, hired assasins to kill other world leaders, gassed his own people with Chemical Weapons of Mass Destruction, Sought more powerful WMD's and fired on planes who were protecting the Kurdish people from certain slaughter. He hid his weapons programs and sought to reconstitute them the minute he weakened the sanctions enough to allow it.

Finally - Iran. Gee you seem to have an afinity for the most vile individuals on the planet. THis person has sworn to completely eradicate another Nation, who has not attacked them in any way. They deny that the Holocaust ever happened and are desperately seeking a Nuclear weapon with which to carry out it's promise to eliminate the aforementioned country. OH! I almost forgot, they are the absolute leader in state sponsored terrorism and without them, nearly every terrorist organization in the world would either cease to exist or be drastically reduced in their effectiveness.


No, I think the U.S. President pretty much nailed it.



Which country is now making very, very agressive noises at another member of this axis of evil.

Which country is once again, leading the fight against evil? Or perhaps you approve of slaughtering a whole Nation?


Which coutnry constantly supports a hostile and imperialistic power in the Middle East, no matter what human rights violations they carry out.

I thought you were against anyone interfering in soveriegn nations????? We are working in this country - diplomatically because we DO have the ability to affect policy in that manner in this case. In the ones you critisize the US for, there is NO basis for negotiations - UNLESS you want to stall so that the terrorist supporting country can gain a Nuclear weapon.

Which country has the highest millitary funding in the world.

And which country does everyone call for when disaster/war/etc hits thier country??? Which country serves as the de-facto military for damn near the whole western world. (with some very notable exceptions)

Which country has been called upon to help fight communist insurgents. Who answered that call.

The Vietnamise people elected the Communists as there goverment over Diem. The US refused to let that stand and instead propped up Diems goverment, commiting countless atrocities. This is of no offense to the US verrens, bu that war was comletly unjustified.


Nice time frame selection and way to ignore the reasons behind it.

Afganistan was justified, but Iraq? It always seems like your falling from one branch to another...

"The Iraqies have WMDs and want to attack us!" Erm....no they don't

"Saddam Supports Al-Quieda" No he didn't.

"saddam is a bloodtirsty dictator" Coprrect, but there are far, far worse dictators in the world-Murgaba, Castro... Why not attack them.

Oh, I forgot, they don't have oil.

Ever heard your president speak, all that crap about guarding democracy and bringing freedom to the Middle East, "Freedom is on the march." how about saying you wehre looking after democracy during the cold war, while simulatiously trying to topple Democratically elected Communist goverments and propping up brutel regimes in other parts of the world.


Extremely Questionable????

Lets look - North Korea!!!! Population starving to death while their "dear leader" aggressively move to threaten Japan and South Korea with Nuclear weapons and oh by the way - is one of the main sponsors of terrorists.
I'd like some everdense of that, mate. So far I havn't seen any everdense of NK supporting terrorism. And your threatening them with Nukes as well. if I was udner consatant threat from Regime Change and being nuked, I'd want my own weapons. I'm no supporter for Nk but the best way to deal with them is deplomacy, not saying there evil.

Next on the list: Iraq - now here we had a real peach of a leader. In ONLY four instances, the death toll from this WONDERFUL regime killed enough people to average more than 71,000 violent deaths per year. (and not of the car accident type - they were killed by Saddam) He twice invaded his neighbors without any justification, hired assasins to kill other world leaders, gassed his own people with Chemical Weapons of Mass Destruction, Sought more powerful WMD's and fired on planes who were protecting the Kurdish people from certain slaughter. He hid his weapons programs and sought to reconstitute them the minute he weakened the sanctions enough to allow it.
I'd like to see everdense orf those figures, please. And why didn't you take him out in the 1st gulf war.At the time you attacked him he no longer had any chemical weapons, hadn't gassed his own people, and wasn't seeking more powerful WMDs. Oh, and he didnt have a secret weapons program, unless it was extramly well hidden.

Amd I didn't see any everdense of him firing on the planes protecting the Kurds, as that would be an act of war.

Finally - Iran. Gee you seem to have an afinity for the most vile individuals on the planet. THis person has sworn to completely eradicate another Nation, who has not attacked them in any way. They deny that the Holocaust ever happened and are desperately seeking a Nuclear weapon with which to carry out it's promise to eliminate the aforementioned country. OH! I almost forgot, they are the absolute leader in state sponsored terrorism and without them, nearly every terrorist organization in the world would either cease to exist or be drastically reduced in their effectiveness.
Everdense of them supporting terrorism please? Incidentally Saudi Arabia is one of the biggest breeding grounds of terrorists as well, as is Pakistan. But there US allies so you wouldn't go after them...

And Iran was heading towards Liberalisation before the "Axis of evil" statements which have driven it further into religious bigomay. and if the most powerful nation in the world was threatening me with attacks, I'd want to defend myself.




Which country is once again, leading the fight against evil? Or perhaps you approve of slaughtering a whole Nation?

Leading the fight against evil? I'd leave Iran for a while instead of making them more paranoid. nagotiate, try to smuggle some contra-band in to help the srong 'freedom' movement amnoung the youth of Iran. everyone knows that this dictaorship won't be able to survive more than 10 years as most of the youths in Iran are against the current regime. You want to support this youth movement, rarther than threaten a entire country.



I thought you were against anyone interfering in soveriegn nations????? We are working in this country - diplomatically because we DO have the ability to affect policy in that manner in this case. In the ones you critisize the US for, there is NO basis for negotiations - UNLESS you want to stall so that the terrorist supporting country can gain a Nuclear weapon.
Your the only nation in the G8 summet that hasn't critised Irsrail for there attacks on Lebanon and perticually there attacks on a innocent civillian convoy that only hours before israil had ordered out of there hoems. You provide them with weapons and money. And I very much doubt that iran, or North Korea have enough uranium to create a bomb (Though NK claim to have one alread). Simply put sanctions on them via the UN and don't give them any uranium. Simple.


And which country does everyone call for when disaster/war/etc hits thier country??? Which country serves as the de-facto military for damn near the whole western world. (with some very notable exceptions)
The UN? Thast what it's there for. Usually when theres a disaster or war it's UN peacekeepers that move in to sort things out, in Rawanda for instance. But it was the US that refused to let any more UN troops into Rawanda thus allowing that massicar to coninue.

As for the millitary of the whole wesern world-are you saying, biritan, France, spain, italy, german, Russia, Canada and all those other nations can't defend themselves? Just because they don't go running around showing off there strength dosn't mean they don't have it.

Which country has been called upon to help fight communist insurgents. Who answered that call.)

No idea. The yanks destroyed land reform, any moves at social justice, and sponsored whole sale slaughter for years though.



Next on the list: Iraq - now here we had a real peach of a leader. In ONLY four instances, the death toll from this WONDERFUL regime killed enough people to average more than 71,000 violent deaths per year. (and not of the car accident type - they were killed by Saddam) He twice invaded his neighbors without any justification, hired assasins to kill other world leaders, gassed his own people with Chemical Weapons of Mass Destruction, Sought more powerful WMD's and fired on planes who were protecting the Kurdish people from certain slaughter. He hid his weapons programs and sought to reconstitute them the minute he weakened the sanctions enough to allow it.


And during that time his attacks on the Kurds were aided by the US (Kissinger closing the Turkish borders 75/76) and his first invasion and war against Iran was also backed heavily by America. He never seriously challenged the no fly zone over the Kurds and had dismantled his weapons programs as concluded by the ISG.


Finally - Iran. Gee you seem to have an afinity for the most vile individuals on the planet. THis person has sworn to completely eradicate another Nation, who has not attacked them in any way. They deny that the Holocaust ever happened and are desperately seeking a Nuclear weapon with which to carry out it's promise to eliminate the aforementioned country. OH! I almost forgot, they are the absolute leader in state sponsored terrorism and without them, nearly every terrorist organization in the world would either cease to exist or be drastically reduced in their effectiveness.


And who sponsored the dictator whose attempts to forcibly westernise his country led to the Islamic revival and revolution?



Which country is once again, leading the fight against evil?

Can't be America..they're part of the problem...Brits just follow orders from Washington.....

I see ignorant neocons/hippiecommies, trying to discuss like sain people. Dicussions between opposites can never be won. If one side doesn't have a good reply on a statement, it just highlightens something else. People should be more open-minded in these repetitive discussions, because everyone has flaws. I do like to read them, though.

And
"Fighting for peace is like f*cking for virginity."

I don't know what the greatest threat to "world peace" is, but it's not a country.
