It's easy to sit in our crystal towers and discuss this rationally. But the truth is in the middle east they don't have much and their is always another megalomaniac coming to take more. When you have only a few meager possessions and your family, when that is taken away you have nothing. So many in that region have lost everything. I don't think it's good to celebrate death, not at all. However if I lost my family and my possessions, had no money to eat, no place to sleep, and lived in a war zone, how could I ever hope to be happy. Look at all the things the First World has, now try to imagine only 1% of it. Your goddamn right I would cheer somebody's death if they controlled all the power and wealth. And I have no shame in saying that if my child and wife we're killed over fucking oil I would grab TNT or a gun and I would take out as many occupants as possible with no regret. Those people as so many of you have said in this thread are fighting for the little they have left. I am ashamed for what I have and what I have taken from those people.
Lot's of your soldiers fighting your wars, and I mos def mean your wars, are laughing and high-fiveing each other every time they kill. Not just militants anything that the bullets hit. I write to my senators and my congress men, the president, the heads of staff and every other person in charge of making wartime decisions. I protest when I can, I tell my stories to those who will listen.
THERE IS A GD WAR GOING ON. How can you have a discussion about people laughing at a stroke patient. This thread should be PEOPLE ARE FUCKING DYING BY THE DOZENS FOR NO GODDAMN REASON.
I know you must think I'm crazy, just some ex-soldier war nut who's shell shocked and has no idea what he's saying, but I worked for those 100 rep points and 1000 posts so when I finally start to vent on this pitiful excuse for a planet somebody would listen. No place on earth is better than the middle east and no person is better than any other. I don't see any fucking threads for the poor little children who have died so we can fuel up for 1 cent less at the pumps.
I hope you all feel bad.
