bloodyminded Posted April 21, 2010 Report Posted April 21, 2010 I wasn't referring to the American government. I was referring to Americans in general. Canadians of the left, regardless of which party is in power in Washington, negatively stereotype Americans on a regular basis. Usually to feed their pseudo-superiority complex. So do Canadians on the Right. They deride and dismiss the liberal portion of America. Quote As scarce as truth is, the supply has always been in excess of the demand. --Josh Billings
Shady Posted April 21, 2010 Report Posted April 21, 2010 So do Canadians on the Right. They deride and dismiss the liberal portion of America. Once again, no, I'm not referring to liberal portions of America, or conservative portions of America. I'm referring to Americans in general. Quote
Guest American Woman Posted April 21, 2010 Report Posted April 21, 2010 We never hear them complain about Canadian Infidels. You must not be listening, then. Al-Qaeda warns Canada But seriously. The jihad is against the West, and Canada is as much a western nation of infidels as the U.S. is. You must realize that, considering the strikes that have been made against other nations. It's not just the U.S. that's been singled out in that respect. If the U.S. is singled out more, it's because the U.S. is more prominent. Quote
bush_cheney2004 Posted April 21, 2010 Report Posted April 21, 2010 You must not be listening, then. Al-Qaeda warns Canada But seriously..... Oh no! What about the magical powers of mapleleafs on backpacks? Surely that will protect Canada from Al Qaeda. Plus, the Taliban and Al Qaeda are protected from all forms of "hate speech" in Canada. Can't be hatin' on Al Qaeda! Quote Economics trumps Virtue.

bush_cheney2004 Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 Bah...US traveller cheques But those are now worthless! Better stick with dope. Quote Economics trumps Virtue.
M.Dancer Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 But those are now worthless! Better stick with dope. I did the back pack thing in the late 70s. followed my Mom's advice, turned my CDN$ into $USD. Jimmy Carter was prsident.. When I arrived in Paris, one us dollar got you 7 frnacs and change...when I left 2 month later, I was getting just 4 and change... Quote RIGHT of SOME, LEFT of OTHERS If it is a choice between them and us, I choose us
Shady Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 Jimmy Carter was prsident Unfortunately, Jimmy Carter 2.0 is currently occupying the White House. I'd advise against any similar currency exchanges for the next couple of years. Quote
BubberMiley Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 I thought it was George McGovern 2.0? Oh no, that was before the election. I guess once Obama is reelected, it will be Bill Clinton 2.0.

Not sure if I consider Europe to be part of the 'west'. England, Spain and other countries have seen this. At its not just a Jihad against the west. It is as much a Jihad towards the East. India, Thailand, ect are all seeing uprisings with this fundamentalism. The west is not the only place being attacked. Quote

GostHacked Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 Lots of Jihad stuff going on in Pakistan.. Exactly. Not to mention is seems easier for the terror attacks to happen in places like Pakistan, India, and other countries due to the lack of 'security' in these places. Have there been more terror attacks in the east compared to the west? Not talking about the scale, but the number of incidents. Quote
Shady Posted April 22, 2010 Report Posted April 22, 2010 Have there been more terror attacks in the east compared to the west? Not talking about the scale, but the number of incidents. That's because it's the path of least resistence. Quote

Not to mention is seems easier for the terror attacks to happen in places like Pakistan, India, and other countries due to the lack of 'security' in these places. I'd say that its more likely due to tribal/sectarian differences as well as the govt support for the U.S...... Quote
