All Middle East Troops Out of America, Now!

[BeFree]

I think it is time that all middle east armies leave the Americas. We have long endured their presence here and their actions have left us with bombed out cities, hundreds of thousands of our citizens dead and wounded, and enabled certain royalties and other regimes to undemocratically rule over us.

How long have they been here now? Ever since WW2, right?

Well, I think it is time that everyone take up arms and evict them from our homelands. I know some of you already have fought them but now I pledge to join you, and together we will shove them from our shores!

Uh oh. Wait. I got it backwards. It is American forces in the middle east, right? Well, no wonder they hate us, Duh.

1. The shoe worn on the other foot provides an interesting perspective

Ouch!

2. The rich on both sides want us to stay there

That's the problem. It's just business nothing more. So long as the Mary Millers and George Bush's strike business deals with the likes of the Saudi Royals nobody's going anywhere.

3. It's a good analogy, but it wouldn't be tolerated by the Hawks

It would just inflame them (but what doesn't?).

4. My brief discussions with freeps often involve this shoe

on the other foot technique. I also like to let them run amok with their
logic. "So, do we kill ALL the Muslims in the world? Is that the idea?"
Most of the time they kind of giggle and have nothing to say which to
me is a positively bone chilling response.

5. Every now and then you meet one with maybe no conscience

Who just doesn't have moral sense.

If you have to kill some a-rabs for some profit or something, why not? I mean what's going to happen to me if i do that? Might as well.

That kind of bullshit.

There are just some cruel people; just had an encounter with one of these cruel philosopher-lites a little while ago. Not good people. We have to outnumber them and fight them back for a decent world.
