Everywhere you look, U.S.' wars has not only not brought any peace or democracy, but it has put the countries in an even worse situation. So the US is to be condemned, utterly and wholeheartedly, for dealing with dictatorships as they are, and condemned, utterly and wholeheartedly, for trying to replace them with democracies. But in all cases we must remind ourselves that anyone not white is a subhuman creature with no power of free will, no intelligence, no education, no humanity, no civilization, and no ability to govern themselves, and thus, are in no way responsible for the condition of the nations or cultures in which they reside. They are mere playthings for the mighty white bwana who rules the world with a shrug and a wave of his hand. You people on the far left must tie yourselves in knots trying to resolve the hypocrisy of your political positions.

That said the dot is not how the overthrow of Mossadegh in 1953 caused 9/11 its how 1953 affected America. The only dot is on your forehead. As recently as March 2017 Iran has been ordered to pay $10.5 billion as compensation for involvement in Sept 11. Many links, https://www.google.ca/#q=iran+9/11+connection Quote

Scientists don't pout. I gave you two opportunities. We scientists like to delegate certain work to underlings. It gives them something to do while we consider the really big questions. Why don't you calculate the force of a 767 aircraft at 600 MPH hitting a solid object and coming to an immediate stop. We can then compare that to other events of similar force. That would be kinda cool. Give the force in Newtons, and then determine the energy in Joules, so that we can compare it to an explosive force in units like tons of TNT. To avoid plagiarism from web sites, please show all numbers in scientific notation, like this: 1,000,000 N = 1E6 N Not in this thread of course... do it in one of your own little rinkydinks. Quote

The US is to be condemned for being a hypocrite and people like you should be challenged for thinking otherwise. The hypocrisy goes on - here is a list: Saudi Arabia: Dictatorship and funders of ISIS = US Ally Egypt: Dictatorship during Mubarak = US Ally Egypt: Democratically elects a government = Not a US Ally Egypt: Orchestrated Coup by the old Mubarak regime = US Ally Libya: Dictatorship not supporting US' actions = Not a US Ally Iran: Authoritarian regime not supporting US' actions = Not a US Ally Iraq: Dictatorship in the 80's, supporting US = US Ally Iraq: Dictatorship in the 90's/00's, not supporting US = Not a US Ally There is absolutely no consistency. This is not about democracy. This is not about human rights. All of this is about controlling the oil market, creating divide and fractions and going into wars so the weapons industry can be fed. There is 0 integrity, righteousness, morality, or virtue in U.S. foreign policy. Anyone who tries to say otherwise is either ignorant or is lying.

You people on the far left must tie yourselves in knots trying to resolve the hypocrisy of your political positions. When you have gangsters ruling a neighbourhood and the corrupt police is allowing this to happen, you will not see the neighbourhood turn around. The system is rigged against the average person. Look at what's happening against Iran right now. The U.S. government is teaming up with the ISIS funders to start a war with Iran. Why are you not speaking out against this?In order to nurture and help the moderate voices in the Middle East, like in Iran, we need to engage the people, instead of shutting the door on them. Cultural and economic engagement is the best way to strengthen the people, like in Iran. Who very recently, voted overwhelmingly for the most moderate option available. The Iranian people have demonstrated that they prefer a path of gradual transformation through peaceful participation. Rouhani’s decisive electoral victory provides the pro-diplomacy government significant political capital to pursue improved relations between Iran and the rest of the world. By supporting a war against Iran, we would be undermining the clear pro-engagement message sent by the Iranian people and empowering hardliners.
