How so? And please don't forget the fact that it wan't I who asked you for a rebuttal. You originally offered a rebuttal with no substance.
Suit yourself then. I am simply maintaining that the US emulates Nazi Germany in the fact that it is intent on trampling on foreign countries with it's pre-emptive wars on the false justification of it being a war on terror. You could at least offer your thoughts on your country's justification for it's wars as I have requested and that would give me some sort of grist on which to continue to discuss the issue with you. Did you forget? If you will do that and you now understand that your wars are illegal pre-emptive wars which are based on false justifications then you will get something in return.
Good! So I'll deal with Iraq and simply state that you are making my case for me. As for the numbers not stacking up, you are wrong even though you are correct on Canada being your largest supplier of foreign oil. It's clearly a matter of a smaller per centage coming from the ME but even so it still forms a necessary portion of the 21 million barrels a day you require to survive at present levels of consumption. In addition to that, for the moment I will only say that there are plans to increase Iraqi oil production to higher levels as Saudi oil declines. You will probably deny that the US has belligerent plans for Venezuela and Hugo Chavez in the making.
Are multiple pre-emptive wars not enough proof??? The rest are secondary details to that but very significant in that the sheer number of people of foreign coutnries slaughtered under US bombs is another similarity not encountered since the fall of Nazi Germany.
My signature wasn't created with you in mind of course. Thank you for your characterizatin of conservative but it is not mine, it is yours. Albeit it is at least in part consistent with my beliefs on conservativism. I can elaborate further if you wish to pursue the topic in that direction.
You can call it discussion if you like but I will call it discussion and debating regardless of how you feel. I believe that I am correct in doing so. I'll deal with Dawkins as a separate issue in due course.
I understand full well that it's uncomfortable for Americans to have to realize that their foreign policy resembles that of Nazi Germany but I really don't think the comparison can be denied. If you ask people in most other countries of the world you will get a very negative opinion of your country's antics. You would serve yourself well if you paid attention.
But in fact you already have conceded the fact that your Iraq war was wrong and for false reasons haven't you! Will you take the same postion if the US goes to war with Iran to prevent them from obtaining nuclear capability? Not that I'm suggesting for a minute that it will happen.
