To the extent that this is true -- likewise for "you all" as well. > Kim Jung Il is the despot king of a medieval nation, not a modern > leader. His aggression toward us has nothing to do with us. The hell it doesn't. Your ruling-class and its stooges still haven't even yet paid for their crimes against the korean people -- both sides, eh? And what Kim Jong-Il and North Korea actually are, is another matter entirely... But then we should talk about the well-known yanqui propensity for preferring dictatorships to real democracies, everywhere. Even ones where they "vote". And regularly, too. Nothing like knowing how to 'game' any system. > He does not fear invasion.

Your side does indeed threaten REAL invasion. This just doesn't happen to appear to be imminent. > This resembles what some far right U.S. leaders did during the latter > stages of the cold war. I doubt that many of them actually feared Russia > or worried that Russia might invade Western Europe. There was ZERO chance the Soviets were going to do what the U.S./NATO imperium said they were going to do. It was all a lie, to justify empire. And today we can easily see that NATO is the fraud it's always been. > They used this scenario to frighten people and consolidate their own > power & influence.

Of course they don't believe this. Point is that the Republicans are liars, thieves and mass murderers -- hell, just like the Democrats -- and will say absolutely anything, if they think it will get them something. And on that we could likely agree 100%. - -- grok. - -- *** FULL-SPECTRUM DOMINANCE! *************************************** * BOYCOTT BOURGEOIS MASS-MEDIA * RSS/XML newsfeeds from around * * Use these links in RSS readers * the planet: Who needs CNN/Fox? * **** Critical endorsement only **** Most sites need donations **** * http://www.greenleft.org.au/rss/glw.xml Green Left Weekly * * http://www.radio4all.net/ainfos_rp.rdf A-Infos Radio Project * * http://demandmedia.net/xml/rss2.xml Collaborative Video Blog * * http://cop-watch.blogspot.com/atom.xml Cop Watch * ******** PRIVATE PROPERTY IS THE ANTITHESIS OF DEMOCRACY ******** GPG fingerprint = 2E7F 2D69 4B0B C8D5 07E3 09C3 5E8D C4B4 461B B771 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkmtvpUACgkQXo3EtEYbt3GeRACfbypVnNtQv8TAjSUqLzI/TZ+E 9QIAn3zuT+duxz73hPadaGGTFAvFnlyU =hxdg -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
