Title: US threatened to bomb Pakistan... D'OH!!! is that called Terrorism????
Post by: Hugo Chavez on September 21, 2006, 12:50:31 PM
I think it is :-X

NEW YORK (Reuters) - President Pervez Musharraf of Pakistan said that after the September 11 attacks the United States threatened to bomb his country if it did not cooperate with America's war campaign against the Taliban in        Afghanistan

Not sure.  They should be.  I think most people refer to McVeigh as a terrorist, but the others should be considered terrorists too.

2. You go do some reading...

Well, at least the white house staff all got Cipro delivered three weeks before the attacks.

How many monster coincidences do we have to witness before this stuff starts to smell?

I actually know the answer to that... About a year before 911, I'm watching nightline I think it was, and they find that we're running an anthrax lab in the middle of the southwest desert somewhere.  They confront the government on it and do a story because the lab is in violation of international treaties.  Get this, they say they were running the lab to understand how terrorists make anthrax ::) This wasn't even a small lab... Not just a few beakers or whatever in a trailer, this set up was to create anthrax in quantity, of course so that we could understand how terrorists would make it in quantity :P I think we know what the anthrax was probably used for.

so Armitage put it a little more strongly than most people would, but at that point in time, the American people (through Congress) would have signed off on it in a New York minute.

Yea, none of that changes the fact that it's an act of terrorism by definition... Signing off on it doesn't make it not so.  :-*

Poor, innocent Pakis . . . never did/aren't doing anything to merit an ultimatum from US.

Musharraf knew exactly what was at stake . . . that's why he elected not to get into the Afghanistan war on the wrong side. Smart guy . . . wish we had more of those here. But, I suspect, y'all are more entertaining.

Based upon what reason?  Just that your warloving ass likes to see ppl killed? 

And the amazing thing is, as much as you seem to love war and I seem to hate it, it you and I were ever in a life/death situation, my glock would be out and firing upon the threat in about .5 seconds and I'd be shoving you out the door to remove us from the threat.  You'd likely freeze up.  People that just love to push war are like this.  They don't understand the severity of life/death situations, they don't understand the fear that people go thru in situations like that.  Makes me sick to my stomach to think that you would just shrug off the US bombing pakistan for no reason.

No.  But I know a lot of military people, LEO, and my own family has been involved in some violent situations.  And NONE of these people would so flippantly describe going to war with pakistan for no reason, and just swoon of the idea of war, as you do.

I know you don't fear or respect war, and you don't understand the value of a human life, much less tens of thousands of lives.  War is the LAST resort.  Anyone who doesn't know this has no real conceptualization of what war actually is.

a lot of them were always beggars. some of them'd do anything for a buck . . . it's their quasi-feudal culture, imo.

All these Americans getting uptight over non-POW status folks at Guantanamo . . . for instance, what do you do w a bunch of Yemenis captured by money-hungry Afghanis and now in a prison run by Americans? It's not like any law has guidelines for things like this.

isn't that the truth about Musharraf? I'm surprised he even opened his mouth . . . he needs y'all up there more than we need him.

musharraf knows world tide of opinion against the US is turning.

They came to our country and spit on our soil.  And the UN aplauded.  It sickened me.

What is the reason?  Why is it that 95% of the world hates us?  10 or 15 years ago, many of these same nations were allied with us, so I don't think you can just say 'they hate us cause we're free' or 'they hate us being the only superpower'.   

What has changed in the last 15 years?  I am in complete shock that Hugo did such a thing, and so much of the world applauded.

musharraf knows world tide of opinion against the US is turning.

They came to our country and spit on our soil.  And the UN aplauded.  It sickened me.

What is the reason?  Why is it that 95% of the world hates us?  10 or 15 years ago, many of these same nations were allied with us, so I don't think you can just say 'they hate us cause we're free' or 'they hate us being the only superpower'.   

What has changed in the last 15 years?  I am in complete shock that Hugo did such a thing, and so much of the world applauded.

I would say that the reason alot of the world hates the US is due to the foreign policy. Of course we have the major issues like Israel, Iraq etc but there a so many small things as well.

I can say here, were we are a pissy tiny useless wimpy nation, the US is generally not a favoured nation for a multitude of reasons.

For instance we trade with Cuba, and have flights to Cuba...so the US sent people down here to talk to our government and threatened us with sanctions if we continue to trade with, and have flights to Cuba. That is just a small example for a West Indian perspective. I mean if one pissy little island wants to sell some crap to Cuba, why butt in?  That is just one tiny example. We have never had circumstances of Canada, European nations etc..butting into our internal affairs, but have had many of the US government. I do get highly amused by our governments polite refusal to adhere to the US rules, as they have for years. I mean if they attack us, what are we going to do? Throw coconuts at the marines?

Are you doing the same?  You've told us you're a 17 year old girl, and implied you have very good firsthand knowldge of 3rd world living, right? 


I never thought Al-Gebra was 17 [I mean that nicely, seems very educated and knowledgable] and I also assumed to be an 'he'?

Also, I also have first hand knowledge of 3rd world living, Al-Gebra where did you live? If I am being too pokey feel free to pm me the info, or to tell me outright to shut up ;D

 me being a 17 y o female is testament to how credulous our mutual friend 240 can be ;D  It's my fault, I posted it to be ironic . . . but I forgot I was dealing w someone who takes everything he reads on the net literally.

I am very familiar w some areas of the Middle East (nothing too exotic, although I know Iran better than most Americans), the Indian sub-continent (all over the place really), and also some areas of the S. East.

You're quite the traveller too.
