Yes, they mentioned it. And I saw the photos online. Our media is acting like this is worse than before. But mass executions and beheadings did happen before. My point is that we only "help" people when it's in our "interests " to do so. I'm addressing what I strongly suspect is coming, not...

I'm sorry. I thought this forum was the spot where U2 fans to express their views and opinions. My bad. Sent from my iPhone using U2 Interference

Thank you for the welcome. I haven't assumed anyone to be Christian but the one I know. And he's falling down the same rabbit hole again. As for facts, they said it plainly on the news before we started giving aid, our involvement is important because the Kurds are our friends and 80% of...

I'm not trying to do anything. After two glasses of wine last night it was just an interesting thought I had because the languages are so different. It doesn't have anything to do directly with the real reason the West is going into Iraq. How many times must people be lied to by their national...

I think it is far more nefarious to not question things. Sure, we're using a humanitarian situation to persuade Americans to get involved for a reason other than humanitarian. Two days in to helping out and now they say we'll be there for weeks and months.... Because of the Kurds not the...

"Where was man?" That's spot on. Unbelievers often blame god because they prefer having no personal accountability for the way the world is now. It's all about choices; cause and effect. Sent from my iPhone using U2 Interference

I find it interesting that the Translation for whatever Arabic name ISIS or ISIL calls itself, fits neatly into its English acronym. Coincidence? Messaging is key. Sent from my iPhone using U2 Interference

Sorry. I'm still using iPhone 4s. Either the small screen or my fat thumbs caused me to miss the comment above my last reply and tap my previous comment. I think my new comment makes clear to whom and what I was replying. iPhone 6 supposedly comes out next month. I'm sure I'll get one by...

I appreciated your well written explanation. It's nice to know that occasionally someone understands what I'm trying to say. Sent from my iPhone using U2 Interference

I wasn't addressing solving a problem. I am discerning what's happening here. Americans were fooled into war with Iraq twice before. It isn't cynical to question the allegiance of our leaders. Sent from my iPhone using U2 Interference

Oh please what? The use of privatized armies (cough) I mean contractors by the United States (my country) should alarm all citizens. And if they would use them against Americans in the time of Bush's Katrina to protect the possessions of the wealthier parishes, nothing is beyond the scope. I...

Thank you Bono_212! I wish I had the gift of speech. Sadly, mine is the gift of gab. I didn't realize galeon girl was asking for explanation. I'm so used to forums where persons often jest. I'm new here, but I'm sure I learn the mannerisms of the regulars with time. Sent from my iPhone using...

I agree with you guys. If only that is all that needs said to those who don't believe like us, specifically I mean the religious right. Sent from my iPhone using U2 Interference

I know. Right? Sometimes people forget that the Mosaic Law had an actual purpose. Sent from my iPhone using U2 Interference

Touché. And right back atchya! Admittedly, I hadn't had my morning coffee yet at the time our President made his announcement. But somehow it still makes sense out of a whole week of senseless media reports, even after I've had my coffee. My comment about the payroll was said in jest though...
