Terror against an Americans

[KrustyKidd]

Krusty;  I thought you used to be a little more credible.  Been resting your brain too much over Christmas????

No but you must be living with your head up your ass if you think the whole world is going to go bankrupt just to satifsfy some left wing fantasy about teaching the US a lesson.

Dream on. Canada should start selling our oil to China too. Teach the Americans to trade according to the rules instead of their bullying ways.

Yes, and they could move their factories that we depend on jobs for to Mexico. We could also short sell the US dollars too, as could OPEC begin trading in Euros. Yes, that would make lots of sense in yourl latte slurping, bycycle riding- ecological-save-the- world from the right idealogical idiocy that lives only in your fantasies.

Let's see. The US dollar goes nosediving suddenly, small countries that depend on it for loans, jobs, aid and have substancial savings in USDs suddenly go tits up and default on loans to Canada, France and all the rest of the hate the US crowd, sending themm into a depression. OPEC, trying to unload the dollars they have create a run on the money and watch as their trillions lose market value overnight. The US unable to come up with enough equity to pay off all the dollars being turned in as the nosedive panic gains momentum start to unload all their Canadian dollars, Euros, Yen and call in all loans bankrupting small country after country in the process.

In turn, as they default on payments to places like Canada and such we feel it severely as the market for our good is not there as nobody has money.

Yes, let's get the US - only in your dreams insult girl.

Just wondering, have you consoidered investing a substancial part of your portfolio in Chinese businesses? I mean say ..... 75% or more? LOL, bet you didn't, and, I'll bet nobody does for one simple reason - you can't depend on them or any third world country like you can depend on the west. So why would you think for one second that all of OPEC would hang their future on a communistic, repressive system that in all likelyhood couldn't make the payments or dig up the coin for increases in cost rather than stay with the US who, for the past hundred years have proven they are reliable business partners?

Glad you don't look after my stuff. You must pick your investments with a mood ring for crying out loud.

OBL blames America for permitting Israel to invade Lebanon.

So do I. Without American permission and support, they'd never have done it.

Of course, if Lebanan had been a real country and not a big shithole full of feuding hillbillies there wouldn't have been peple firing mortars across the border into Israeli towns and the Israelis wouldn't have needed to invade.

The title of his thread suggests he's asking why terrorists are targeting the United States.

The answer is simple: Because the United States has long targeted the countries most of these terrorists live in.

That is indeed a 'simple" argument. Let's take Saudi Arabia as an example. Please explain how the US has "targeted" the Saudis and the harm which has befallen the Saudi people because of the US.

Saudi Arabia is a religious dictatorship. And so far as I have been able to determine the vast majority of Saudis who oppose it are people who believe the government is far too liberal (!?) and want a much stricter theocracy.

Why hasn't America targeted Canada;  probably because we hand over our oil resources and a majority of our sources are American controlled, already.

By "hand over" our oil what you mean is "we sell our at international prices" right? You seem to have this wierd idea of how international oil sales work, as if all sales are nation to nation deals. In fact, international conglomerates buy oil from international brokers at the going world price, and ship the oil all over the place. The US can buy oil anywhere it wants.

  They are looking to control the Middle East.  That is the reason they armed and Backed Israel in its aggressions.

The US backs Israel for a wide variety of reasons, some having to do with history, some to do with internal politics. As for "Israeli agression" it seems to only happen when people shoot at them (odd how that is). Perhaps if your beloved Arab wackos would stop trying to kill all the Jews they'd find the Israelis less "agressive".
