You made a point that a person who went to share love was killed, to refute the point that love can heal all. I made a counterpoint that death is expected in any war, so your example isn't profound in any way. See Gandhi, Jesus, MLK, or any historic humanitarian for examples.
I'm sorry that Italian woman was fighting a war? I missed that part.

No I was not, I was showing you that people like you, Christians, are not wanted in the ME, they do not want you to teach peace to them, they do not want peace with you.

And thousands of innocent German children were killed in WW2, would posting a picture of them to tug at your heartstrings swayed you to import Nazis?



War was needed then, and probably needed now to overthrow an evil regime. My initial point, and purpose for response, was for you to consider that the people aren't "rats" but are innocent human beings. Just like me and you. The people aren't evil inherently is my point, but when you call 2 million people "rats" and "sub-species" it is gravely concerning about the condition of our hearts as Americans.

Sorry IDGAF, I want to preserve a beautiful culturally significant culture such as the western and Northern Europeans. If they die in the desert it would be because they're men thought it better to travel to Germany and get on welfare and rape white women instead of fighting for a nation.

I am progressive, but I am not a democrat. I understand the reality of global politics and the needs to intervene from time to time to prevent atrocities. I don't fit your stereotypes and media given definitions, so you are confused. I understand the need for military intervention and respect and appreciate it. I also know that the motivations must be humane and altruistic, not "they are different from us!" Maybe you'll awaken to that some day.

You do know there are many forms of progressive? Many, many unique and inherently different forms.

Part of the problem with this country and board is that everyone tries to group everyone into a subset of political association. It is simply not true.

Agree 100% with this. It's absurd to think that hundreds of millions of people can fall into basically 8 categories of political belief. Absurd.

Yes you do, you are calling for the over throw of a totalitarian regime. Whose sons are you volunteering for that?

Third post of this thread nailed it, how sick of a leader to basically volunteer his citizens for hardship. That's a corrupt regime. Maybe your boy Trump will have the gonads and intellect (haha!) to topple regimes such as this, but I highly doubt it.

By the way, armies of men are a thing of the past, today's warfare doesn't involve large armies sweeping across nations. You must've been in your 40s during the first gulf war?

Hahah your assumptions.

What do you call what we have been doing the the ME the last 15 years? You think thats a conventional war that was fought 70 years ago? OK run with that.

You preach love and peace but want to over throw a government, have you not been watching the news the last 15 years? We have done this several times and what was the outcome? Yet you want to keep doing it. LOL Typical Prog.

"Melt"

Man, if this word could only go away so we could have intellectual conversation. But, let me guess "U Mad". What a futile endeavor.... Sheep, sheep everywhere.

If someone from the left could explain this in a manner that fits their agenda I would pray for Barack to come into my heart.
