DoctorGonzo you're wrong. Walker admitted to a reporter that he fought in Kashmir with Al-Quaeda. The Taliban is not at war in Kashmir.

Walker also was interrogated by the CIA officer who was later murdered in the prison uprising that Walker participated in. The interrogation was videotaped. Walker refused to help the CIA officer in any way. MAP |

And THAT C.I.A. officer (Mike Spann) was from rural Winfield Alabama, about 100 miles from my home. I wouldn't advise Osama bin Walker to have car trouble anywhere around Winfield.

Walker should be given due process of law and tried for treason. Considering the lumps of evidence against him, he will likely be found guilty, and a suitable punishment will be appropriate.
It almost confounds me how prevalent religious fanaticism is worldwide, and what people will do in the name of religion.

I think a Medal of Honor is in order for this war hero. Oh, by the way, not only did he know for sure that he was fighting the Americans (probably a dream come true for him) but there is VIDEO of him being interviewed by the CIA officer who was killed shortly thereafter. So I think it's safe to say this kid knew exactly what was going on and what he was doing.

He IS still a citizen, so we can't strip that away because he chose to do something else. After all, Americans choose stupid things all the time. If it is discovered that he disclosed American secrets or anything, he needs to be tried as a traitor. It wouldn't, however, shock me if we just tried him in military court, there are a lot of civil liberites that are stripped away there.
I feel like it's his choice, though I don't understand it. Life in prison is probably where he'll end up. ------------------ Go lightly down your darkened way. |

When Karl Marx stated that religion was the "opiate of the masses," he was right. In what other form can you slip in any type of extreme ideology or philosophy or wacky idea and get mass amounts of people to believe it? Unlike Marx, I do not believe that this is cause for the global elimination of religion, because extremism and the opiate effect even inhabits atheism. The cult of Stalin's dictatorship is evidence enough of that. People just need to learn to use their brains, rather than throw it away in the name of "faith." Of course, it has been a long time since I've been able to decipher anything you have written, so I might be way off here.

I glad to hear Doctor Gonzo exert some sense in this forum. I for one am sick and tired of the hypocrisy of the majority of Americans. I'm glad to see there are other people in our country, who can think critically enough to see how awful our government and media portray their so-called "enemies", while justifying equivalent horrors on them.
I am truly SICK of hearing about this "peace of earth". Give me a break, America! If we really want peace of earth, like Dubya and all his cronies say they do, why are you going against your messiah, Jesus Christ's, message? Fuckin' idiots...they're all a bunch of fucking I.D.I.O.T.S. Pardon my language. |

Doctorgonzo:
I thought you may be interested in the column here: http://www.mediachannel.org/views/di...missions.shtml It asks some provocative questions on how the American media have been reporting the Afghani campaign. |

In case you missed the events of recent history, the Taliban supported and protected a terrorist organization that attacked my country in a time of peace, that brutally and intentionally incinerated thousands of my fellow countrymen. These Americans committed no apparent crimes, unless you are willing to include as "equivalent horrors" boarding a passenger jet, going to the office to work, and working a low-paying job to rush into a burning building to save the lives of others. For this act, they are not "so-called enemies" of the United States. They are CLEARLY the enemies of my country. (I congratulate you for your ability to "think critically enough" to condemn this country and its people, but I'm still waiting to see whether your amazing skills can be applied to Al Queda and the Taliban - whether you can bring yourself to see these people as the thugs that they are. And I'd love to know whether your critical thinking skills can see that, under a Taliban-led regime, you wouldn't even have the opportunity to criticize.) Further, your comment about how Christians should turn the other cheek is misleading and presumptuous. It is misleading because it takes a commandment for personal behavior ("turn the other cheek") and applies it to the government - an application that is never implied in the Bible, that is a stretch in even the best case, and is ultimately ridiculous when taken to its logical conclusion: the Bible is against stealing, too, and by your fucked-up logic, the government doesn't have the right to fine people for breaking laws. And your comment is presumptuous because it presumes to know the will of Christ. It implies that military action on the part of the government is clearly against Christianity. That debate, one among hundreds, has not been decided; and there is a strong argument for military action, namely the "just war" theory, which suggests that it is sometimes a sin to not respond with military action, to thus allow tyrants and thugs to continue assaulting and enslaving others. Of course, you suggest no reasonable alternatives to war, but your vehement opposition to military action - and your idiotic attempt at moral equivalence - demonstrate that you think military action is a bad idea, and further, that you have no sense of history and no idea what "peace" really means. Europe gave Hitler Austria; he wanted more and he took more, including Poland and France. (I suppose the U.S. committed "equivalent horrors" by bombing Berlin in reply.) In the last decade, the U.S. and its interests have been attacked through terrorism at our embassies, our military bases, and even an earlier bombing at the World Trade Center. We did nothing - or very nearly nothing - in response, and our very reasonable "so-called enemies" hi-jacked four planes, attacked three of our largest office buildings, and killed thousands. Sorry, appeasement never has worked and never will work. You also don't understand the concept of "peace". It is not merely the lack of U.S. Armed Forces in action. It is not only the absence of violence (which, again, wouldn't occur even if we stopped bombing). It is the absence of threat and the presence of justice. We are not in that state now, and we will not be in that state until we act militarily and obliterate those who plan to do us harm. I know of nothing else to say in response to the shit you posted. I simply find your opinion utterly worthless. |
