Re: [OT] Another heated discussion about the Iraq siutation, war and politics.
yea rex i believe the anti war people stated their ground on the immense human suffering war would bring and the consequences of the war.
I am sorry to say this Rex but your country reminds me of another country in the 30's... In its early stages. Pray that the orange smoothie never hits red alert. The concept of a police state scares me. They have had the practice in the inner cities for years. But hey it can't happen here. People are not being picked up by the govn't without due process. Nah... Not here. Drummed up enemies everywhere you look. The agencies that failed you in the first place need more money as a small threat becomes the uber threat of all time , and endless in its reaches. America to me is almost the classic dictonary form of fascism. Traits of classic fascism include: strong nationalism, expansionism, belligerent militarism, meshing of big business and government with a corporate/government oligarchy, subVersion of democracy and human rights, disinformation spread by constant propaganda and tight corporate/government control of the press.
Then again I could be rambling on.... But it is a thought siting their in the back of my head....
So I post it here. To be slammed and agreed upon. Or I just want to keep this thread going and going and going.
P.S. 1 week has gone by and their is still no democracy in Iraq.... Just Chaos... And whats with bringing the Baath Party leadership back to help form this 'democracy' Wasn't that the 3rd reason the war was for, to rid the Iraqi people of the brutal regime that was in charge... This is just beginning.
