"Like" has nothing to do with it, and what they should be (and are) worried about are fracking in the US and missile developments in Iran.

The other day, I was at the local Army surplus store here in the US. A lot of their merchandise is not actual Army surplus but new consumer-grade merchandise they order from a supplier's catalogue. The catalogue, which is not Jewish-owned or affiliated but just an ordinary American militaria...

It is indeed a fallacy for the reason I stated. In point of fact the US invented the airplane, it was not "given" to us by England, and your basic premise is that technology just sprouted from the earth of England like a mushroom on a wet lawn. By way of example, how would you fit into this...

Completely not true. The difference is that those kinds of incidents are freak occurrences here, and so heavily reported by the media. We do not have a normalized Kalashnikov culture. How many Arabs have died by violence other than warfare in the last 20 years? It's also a lie no matter who...

Again... there's that bizarre Arab idea that technology, progress, etc, are purely arbitrary, things that just happen to be there, like the petroleum under your feet. What happened with the West, since 800 years ago, was that the West's long dark age since the fall of Rome began to end with the...

I never claimed you did. I am simply pointing out where your ideas come from. Cult of personality was present in the USSR as well. Lenin had his statue everywhere. Stalin is still regarded as basically a god by many Russians. Mao's beliefs as laid down in the Little Red Book are definitely...

Because you want what we have: strong and stable institutions: our democracy, our economy, our technology, our military. You refuse to grasp those things are not accidents. They aren't gifts from G-d. They are the end product of our outlook, our values, our way of life. If your people want...

Millions of Americans own guns. I personally have a Tavor in an electronically controlled case in my den, a HiPoint 9mm next to my bed, a M1911 in my car, and a Taurus Curve I keep on my person. We have more guns than people in this country. If you really want to buy a M67 or M80, they're widely...

You think that you are validating your claim that foreigners are responsible for what goes on in your country, but in reality, you're debunking it. If speeches are enough to cause Iraqis to kill each other, that's no one's responsibility but their own as individuals and as a culture - proof they...

I only understand English. Could you explain the point of the video? Are you meaning to say that preachers in Turkey are inciting conflict?

Again with this idea that all technology is initially incidental and then redistributed. You can't see that's a fallacy? Do you not realize the United States invented the airplane?

Goes back to my point about how much help they got from anyone in starting trouble elsewhere. It's funny how your operating premise is that Arabs can't do anything unless someone else does it for them. Let me turn that around for you for a moment - why aren't there insurgencies in other...

What do you believe the US's final goal in Iraq actually is? If the vote tomorrow produced an overwhelmingly Shi'ite government, do you really think the Sunnis are just going to roll over and take that? Do you also believe that Lebanon descended into chaos because of the US and not the Sunni...

The number of civilians killed by the US military is extremely low by the standards of Third World warfare. How many died during the conflicts in Lebanon, Yemen or Iran? Likewise I am not covering for US foreign policy. I'm simply pointing out that it could be a whole lot worse...if we wanted...

What do you mean, it's enough said? You think we're not good at war because we refuse to make war on defenseless people? Man, Arab mentality right there! I don't understand the first part of what you said here. The point is that these countries are going to be ruled by strongmen no matter...

Bolded that part for you. In point of fact, it's never happened. The US military has never "overtaken" anything. In both Vietnam and Iraq, the US decided to put puppet regimes in power rather than take direct military control of the country. Those regimes crumbled on their own - but the US...

(edited my post) Sure, why not? Israel won wars with old Shermans and Centurions with some creative upgrades. Iran beat Iraq by doing the same with their ancient F-5s and F-14s. Iran converted a fuel tanker to a VSTOL carrier and are now the only Gulf state with their own carrier. The US'...

I feel like pointing out here that the Trabant is an amazing frame for stock racing or EV conversions because of its light weight and ease of customization. People do marvelous things with them. I've been trying to buy (at least) one up, in fact. If the Trabant nT ever actually makes it to...

You are confused. The US allowed the DPRK to continue to exist for the same reason Israel gave back the Sinai after a war it won and for the same reason it chose not to seize Damascus, and also for the same reason the US has such a long list of allies even though its own forces do substantially...
