Re: [OT] Another heated discussion about the Iraq siutation, war and politics.
I think your lame reply says it all. Anyone who thinks war is a good thing is evil.
Also it's typical for people to question people's patriotism when they don't support misguided policies.
Some were making fun of me for writing this quote, but you are guilty of what this quote says so I'll repeat it.
"It is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country."
