war has rules.they obviously aint followin them if they are kidnapping american civilians and construction workers and cutting there head off
Look, I know that kidnapping American citizens and cutting their heads off sucks, but what the fuck are They doing there in the first place! Greed for money has got them by the balls. They're being promised 100 to 300 G's a year to work in Iraq. And Nick Berg was told to leave Iraq because American Civilians were in danger, oh I forgot, don't mess with a man's paper. Plus, does it really fucking matter that a few peeps get their heads cut off, yeah its a horrible way to die, but people are dying around the world from other shit like hunger and AIDS. The U.S. embargo on Iraq has caused the death of over 1/2 million CHILDREN since the beginning of the first Gulf War mostly because it was impossible for Iraq to get the necessary medicines needed to cure otherwise simply curable ailments. Now if thats not fucked up I don't know what is. As Americans we complain about 3,000 people dying on 9/11 or 1000 soldiers dying in war, BUT THAT'S NOTHING! We need to think about the problems that the rest of the world has before we complain about a few peeps getting their head chopped off.
But don't get me wrong, I love the U.S., we have a great country here, full of diversity and opportunity (although the government keeps certain races down on purpose. They love criminalizing lower classes on the nightly news. Why don't they broadcast all the white collar criminal shit?). I'm just sick of people saying that it's fucked up that Americans are dying. Come on people we've been sheltered from this shit our whole lives. Peeps in the Middle East see violence on the daily. Its a different culture. We have to understand that.
Going back to the "War has rules" comment, yeah they're doing some fucked up shit, but we're doing the same thing. I got peeps that went to Iraq and said they literally killed everything in their path (ex. Woman, children, dogs). War still has rules going back 4000 years. Read the "Art of War" by Sun Tzu. Some people fuck up, but as the U.S., we have to continue to strive to follow the rules. We should be more civilized than how our soldiers treated the prisoners at Abu Ghraib. If a motherfucker jumps off a bridge are you gonna jump too?
I hope I haven't offended anyone too much.
