  • What's the alternative to drones? Boots on the ground? You mother-blam!-ers complain about the things that keep you safe from angry mother-blam!-ers who have it out for America. You just don't get it. It's not that AQ isn't attacking, they're being stopped every day.

    You sound like a 16 year old stoner, "brah". Why don't you go read what Hezbollah has to say about Al Qaeda and then we'll talk. Al Qaeda may have lost leaders but that doesn't mean they aren't a threat. America may have made these enemies for war profiteering, but that's a different subject. Especially when Obama is making the "War on Terror" much cheaper by sending out little RC toys to do the dirty work instead of thousands of troops, bombs, guns, millions of rounds of ammo, hundreds of tanks and all sorts of other expensive shit Bush used.

  • Not to detract from what you're saying, but one doesn't even have to read what Hezbollah has to say about al-Qaeda to understand the threat they pose to securities in various regions of the world. To get a good understanding of what al-Qaeda is, their affiliates and allies are, and their objectives, one could just read [url=http://www.longwarjournal.org/archives/2013/07/global_al_qaeda_affi.php]this[/url]. It's pretty condensed, but very informative nonetheless.

You will understand sometime anyway, whether it will be kicking and screaming, or you realising you are trying to justify you're own rights away and wise up. [quote]You sound like a 16 year old stoner[/quote] You're almost right, close but no cigar. Not that there is anything wrong with, it like you suggest ;)

  • Actually, I dont need to. You're not exactly the easiest person to debate since you're overly agressive, almost child like obstinance to accept the truth is hilarious. Why would I waste my time giving you facts when you can do that yourself. Or for that matter, that others have already done. This isn't exactly a hot off the press concept that your government is pissing on you without even the decency of calling it rain. Enlighten yourself :) I see you're driving yourself down to youtube comment level absurdidty, so Im taking my leave. I'll let you rant on to someone else. [quote]There's nothing wrong with smoking weed. There is something wrong with you.[/quote] Hmm. That isn't what you said earlier since you called me a stoner. Nice big generalisation there isn't there kiddo.

    You keep responding about not wanting to argue, so why are you responding and saying "You're too stupid to argue with"? And I'm not being aggressive. Proving you wrong and dismantling your piss poor ad hominem argument isn't hostility. Take your own advice and stop trying to discuss this, because you have no idea what you're talking about. I'm not ranting about anything, I've provided you with proof that Al Qaeda is a threat, yet all you keep saying is "lol you're so brainwashed". Let me state this again: Go watch Al Manar and see what Hezbollah has to say about Al Qaeda. You want a source that isn't biased or controlled by the American government, I'm giving you one.

  • Jesus Christ kid. You need to learn to stfu and know when you're getting trolled. The guy is playing you without even trying by the looks of it. Chill out. :) Btw: You are pretty funny though. I can see why he did it ;)

  • ...Wow. He asks for an opinion and an unbiased source, I gave him one. He can choose to be reasonable or "pretend" he was being retarded.

  • Haha I'll be straight with you. The reason he went for you is because you're taking yourself way to seriously. The way you react is pretty funny I must admit and I'm trying to be neutral as possible considering you're making a prat out of yourself. Duke does this a lot. But you best make no mistake, he probably wasn't interested in having a debate with you from the start. Give him some credit though... He makes good threads :3

  • >taking myself "to" seriously Well, my friend, seeing as how I know more than most people here about how things actually work in the world, I'm going to give my serious opinion. But please go on about how America deploying an army in a foreign country is so much better than using drones. You keep talking trash over your computer and acting like you're hot shit because you're watching some dude fail to put a proper argument together and looking like an idiot in the process. Have fun. ;)

Cute how you try to act like you're a master troll when you're proven wrong. And even if you were trolling, you didn't anger me. Whether or not you take my posts seriously is irrelevant, they are there for others to see so that they can have a better opinion on all of this. When you waste the time of others, you waste your own time.

  • No. :3 Seriously though. Trolling aside. You were a prime target. You take yourself far to seriously and you made it way to easy. If you want something productive to think about, I reccomend running along to one of my philosophy thread thats making its round through atm. Have fun.

    The fact that you ask a serious question, recieve a serious answer and then attempt to act like you're a troll picking and choosing targets is hilarious. I made what "to" easy? Dismantling your argument? If you're going to troll, at least post something confusing or something that will cause anger. All you did was post something ignorant and then act like you trolled the shit out of me. Whatever lets you sleep at night. And no, I'm not going to visit one of your pseudo intellectual philosophy threads. "LUL BRO WHAT IS LIFE HUR DURR"

  • Someone's a bad loser. Look brah. Sorry to have to break it to you, but everyone here is either against you, or watching this hilarity. I barely even read what you said, let alone dained to give you a argument about something that you are alone in thinking. Why waste my time being OT when I mess with ya. And give me some credit ;) dont think I actually was going to argue with you about this easily picked apart jingo, hoo rah bollocks. Please. And good try. But apparantly other people liked it enough. Read up. I have a feeling you're not willing to let this go so I eagerly await you're convoluted responce.

  • Like I said, these are enemies America has created for war profiteering and to keep control of oil in the Middle East. That's the big picture. The little picture is that there would be many more attacks per year in America and Europe if it wasn't for your government "not following" the Constitution. Are rights being infringed? Yes, by both sides. Let's not pretend extremist Muslims are victims of anything. They could easily accomplish much more by banding together and creating international laws to protect their oil, not to mention fix all the backwards shit in their countries.
