Ummmm....actually no, you CAN pick which countries the rules apply to....it's called "Foreign Policy", "alliances", "extradition treaties", "trade agreements", etc.

So yes, it IS different rules for different countries. And I wouldn't have it any other way. Thankfully no western government adheres to your preposterous theory of moral equivalency between Al Qaeda on 9/11 and NATO airstrikes in Afghanistan. And neither does the rest of the civilized world.

Actually, you are RIGHT on target. I was watching a documentary about a US Marines unit in Iraq doing house to house sweeps in Fallujah. Time and time again, they would find TONS and TONS of pornographic videos and mags in terrorist safehouses. The Marines kept saying how these Iraqis are a bunch of "porn dogs".

But then when these terroritsts are done masturbating in their little dark porn basements, they get on their pedestal about how Allah will banish our Western culture to hell for our promiscuous nature. Puh-leeze....

Yes, "extradition treaties". We have a bunch of them. Except our government refuses to honor its own treaties. For example, we have extradition treaties with Venezuela, but have refused to hand over Luis Posada who is responsible for blowing up one of their civilian airliners and killing 70+ people.

We have extradition treaties with most countries, but our leaders simply ignore them. But then they expect the other countries to honor the threaties.

This is another example of "Do as I say, not as I do". It's a wonderful philosophy! I hope you raise you kids with that lesson.

....and Polocks are dumb, Gypsies are all thieves and bandits, Irish are drunks, Italians are all in the mob, etc. Please keep your racist ignorance to yourself.

None of what you wrote even close to resembles the truth. It's what the propogandists at Fox News and the Rush Limbaugh show want you to believe. And as you have even pointed out, it doesn't even make any sense!

People in the Middle East, and even in Iran, love American culture, Hollywood, American music, American products live Levis Jeans, etc. What they don't love is our military being in their country. That is why they hate us. It has nothing to do with our culture or even our religion.

But by making you think that they hate us because of "who we are", and not because of "what we do", they remove any responsibility from the equation. But we do have control over this. We can be nice and then most of the world will like us, or we can be bastards and most of the world will hate us. Most recently our government has chosen the later.
