eyeball Posted April 10, 2016 Report Posted April 10, 2016 (edited) You're not the only one WestCanMan, here's another generalization, by someone who actually knows better but apparently needs a refresher. Yes you can try and blame the west for every ones problems... So would it be fair to say the west is utterly and completely devoid of any blame, complicity or responsibility whatsoever for the disaster region the ME has become and that we're the real victims?

jacee Posted April 10, 2016 Report Posted April 10, 2016 (edited) Opposed to what? "western companies that are terrorists" ? That's not even a proven thing. It's an article about one alleged occurance! Her one weak example was from Peru or someplace like that. Bolivia? Have we been attacked by a bunch of south american terrorists?Has Canada been attacked by a bunch of terrorists of any kind?No. I guess you missed the part about US (Bush) terrorists attacking Iraq to prevent nationalization of oil. You could look this stuff up if you really want to understand: http://www.globalresearch.ca/we-re-going-to-take-out-7-countries-in-5-years-iraq-syria-lebanon-libya-somalia-sudan-iran/5166 Are we still going to war with Iraq? And he said, Oh, its worse than that. He reached over on his desk. He picked up a piece of paper. And he said, I just got this down from upstairs meaning the Secretary of Defenses office today. And he said, This is a memo that describes how were going to take out seven countries in five years, starting with Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and, finishing off, Iran. http://www.salon.com/2015/11/18/this_is_why_they_hate_us_the_real_american_history_neither_ted_cruz_nor_the_new_york_times_will_tell_you/ If you look at history, you will find that regime change whether it was in the early 50s in Iran, whether it was toppling Salvador Allende in Chile, or whether it was overthrowing the government of Guatemala way back when these invasions, these toppling of governments, regime changes have unintended consequences. ... Regime change is not a phrase you hear discussed honestly much in Washington, yet it is a common practice in and defining feature of U.S. foreign policy for well over a century. For many decades, leaders from both sides of the aisle, Republicans and Democrats, have pursued a bipartisan strategy of violently overthrowing democratically elected foreign governments that do not kowtow to U.S. orders. First it was the 'communists', now it's the Muslims. Really it's the military-industrial complex thirsting for oil and minerals and war ... for profit. its-not-just-the-oil-the-middle-east-war-and-the-conquest-of-natural-gas-reserves .

WestCanMan Posted April 10, 2016 Report Posted April 10, 2016 You haven't backed up your claim because you can't. Your mistake was using the word everything when you claimed jacee blamed the west for everything that muslims are doing. Your tendency to trip over your generalizations is even better highlighted in your confused and funny exchange with dre involving liberals. Like I said, you're not very good at this. Wrong eyeball. She was the one who made the declarative statement, naming one single reason for muslim extremism. If there was "one reason" I'm sure that 99% of the people on the planet would say that supporting Israel is the #1 reason.

WestCanMan Posted April 12, 2016 Report Posted April 12, 2016 Show it to us, and highlight the word everything.If you can't admit that you were schooled the next best thing would be to just keep quiet about it. This is utterly ridiculous and I'm done with this topic.

eyeball Posted April 12, 2016 Report Posted April 12, 2016 Best you just stay away from it too. Quote I said now watch what you say they'll be calling you a radical, a liberal, oh fanatical criminal
bush_cheney2004 Posted April 12, 2016 Report Posted April 12, 2016 ....Really it's the military-industrial complex thirsting for oil and minerals and war ... for profit. Then the risk of terrorist attack must be worth it, as there is no shortage of Canadian mining and oil services enterprises around the world, and arms exports to Muslim nations (e.g. Saudi Arabia). Quote Economics trumps Virtue.
eyeball Posted April 12, 2016 Report Posted April 12, 2016 Worth even more than the risk of nuclear armageddon by the looks of things - you bought that ticket and took that ride too didn't you BC? Quote I said now watch what you say they'll be calling you a radical, a liberal, oh fanatical criminal
WestCanMan Posted December 5, 2023 Report Posted December 5, 2023 What an interesting thread this is: At the point in time of the last post here, there had never been a reverse terrorist attack here (Canadians against muslims), so this is an interesting look back at how we felt about this topic just 8 months before Alexandre Bissonnette went into the mosque and shot those guys This event isn't listed on Wiki's "Terrorism in Canada" page. The only entry for 2016 on that page is: Quote August 10, 2016: Aaron Driver is killed in a confrontation with police after detonating an explosive in the back seat of a taxi. The confrontation followed a tip from the FBI that Driver had made a "martyrdom video" and was planning an attack on an urban area.[72] It was clearly "a terrorist attack", I dunno why/how they missed that. I wonder how many more there are.
