Anyone know how to say "up against the wall, motherfuckers" in German?

No, but I can tell you how to "kiss my ass" in English. This comes from a country who murdered millions of Jews in their own state sponsored death camps. Not too many atrocities from history compares to what Germany did....and the German people were apathetic to it.

They aren't anymore, and haven't been for a long time now. Sorry you didn't get the memo.

Poor Adolf...so very upset by the idea of Bush and Cheney moving in on his fuhrer's action. I bet you would make a fine sadistic prison guard, Adolf.

You high?

[Nope]

The US has a bad track record of accepting that some of its past actions were crappy. I know people who still defend slavery.

From what I have been told, Germany has done a pretty good job of accepting its responsibility for what happened in WW2

This charge is not against the American people. It is against a specific administration that engaged in activities that it didn't openly share with the public. Cheney and the rest of his gang should stand trial but they won't.

Saying Germany can't accuse other states of war crimes just because of what happened about 60 years ago is completely idiotic - It's a terrible fallacy that makes the accusation depend on one's status quo - Germany did a great job paying debts, rebuilding itself and Germany's moderate social democracy has achieved good results, not to mention that because of WWII Germany has made a considerable amount of legal efforts to ban and prevent discrimination, racism and prejudice. It's like saying an ex smoker can't make anti-smoking campaigns just because she/he smoked once. It makes no sense at all

Edit - 70 years ago, I still often forget that we are already in the 2010 decade... Why don't we bash Italians and Japanese too?

But the religious right believe that life begins when the first cell splits, and under no circumstance shall we infringe upon the right of that fetus (forget about the actual living thing...MOM) but once that fetus becomes a child it is a different story.

Maybe we should quit worshipping at the alter of Lord dub ya and realize all HUMAN life should be protected.

Are there dirt bags in the world? Yes, we have humane ways of dealing with them. So far it looks like Dub ya and his minions could give two shits about those rights of dirt bags or anyone really

There certainly are dirt bags in the world. Here's one.

Yesterday, the former vice president of the United States and one of the architects of the American torture program explained why he was unconcerned about the torture of innocent prisoners.

This motherfucker belongs in jail.

Well, you know, post war Germany actually listened to what Justice Jackson had to say about aggressive war at the Nuremberg tribunals. At least after Adenauer and his cronies were gone for good. Pity his own country wasn't that open to his suggestions.

Also, Germany was one of the countries being opposed to the Iraq madness right from the start. The then foreign minister Fischer lectured Rumsfeld at a conference about how he hadn't made the case for going to war. And he openly said, he himself didn't believe one word being presented and he can't go to the public and argue for something he didn't believe.

What exactly do you have against Adenauer? The guy ensured that German politics were more in line with democratic principles than they had been, secured the return of the last POWs from WW2, and helped build the German economy into the powerhouse it remains to this day.

Fuck the war, it was a long time ago, get over it.

Yesterday was a long time ago... but I'd be remiss to not say it didn't look one hell of a lot like tomorrow could.

We should. Every country should own its faults or its failures... including the US of A.

Its apple pie is a fucking joke.
