wow... you make my own point even better than I do. your way around every problem is to declare war? Do you really yet understand why the USA is growing more hated every day? It is because of answers like this. You are a bully. Your country is a bully. And when someone blows stuff up and kills some of your people you cry and then wonder why it all happened and why people hate you. Did it EVER occur to you to behave according to your own human rights declarations? Gitmo exists because of the failure of the american conscience. Because the place it outside the reach of your constitution, you torture and detain without due process because you CAN. Whatever happened to PRINCIPLE? Whatever happened to being the 'light on the hill' to democracy and freedom? All around the world, countries you would describe as 'lesser democracies' thank God they are not like the USA which has sold its principles down the river.
Imagine the outrage and violence that would result if the Russian Embassy decided to fly in helicopters and troops without state dept approval? WAR could result. But because you CAN, you think you SHOULD. Bring on the next Cold War. Maybe that will shut you lot up and keep you from treating the entire world as your rightful playground. -----Original Message----- From: ProFox [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Pete Theisen Sent: Wednesday, 17 October 2012 4:05 PM To: ProFox Email List Subject: Re: [OT] Hil takes one for the Bammer On 10/17/2012 01:09 AM, geoff wrote: Hi Goeff, OK, if necessary to get some blowhard or another to shut up, the president can essentially declare war on (whoever is attacking) which would fall within his/her war powers, subsequent to a ratification by congress if the war is to continue. Nothing but the defeat of the US would ever satisfy you despite your protestations, but it would satisfy the US law. What, you afraid Oz will be next? Not even on the radar. Oz knows how to deal with Islam, and we respect that even if you don't. http://www.workpermit.com/news/2012-09-20/australian-prime-minister-says-imm igrants-have-duty-to-integrate > This is why so many people thank God that you never got elected or > anywhere near the levers of power.
