Quote:Calling them dirty little middle eastern countries is an act of mockery.
I accept that is how you meant it because my perception is that you are essentially benign,and not at all hateful. However, the comment may also easily be interpreted as racist,which is how I saw it on first reading. (and thought out of character)
Quote:I believe that Iraq and Afghanistan don't pose legitimate threats to us.
I can't remember anyone ever suggesting they did. However,both countries DO threaten American interests.Specifically,the god given right of every American to cheap gasoline.
Quote:I don't think Hussein was as bad as Hitler. That is absurd.
Comparisons of evil are irrelevant. EG I think Stalin was a greater monster than Hitler.So what?
Hussein not as bad as Hitler in what way(s)? I think you're implying statistics rather than character. I find THAT absurd,and a little obscene.
