Rammunition, you're from the UK right? Man that must suck considering that one of your princes was over in Afghanistan fighting with the terrorist coalition. Guess he's a fucking terrorist too.

I've killed countless insects, it's really disturbing how I used to torture and dissect those poor critters. I'm also a proud American. Make the same kind of list you did for America for every other nation in the world, even ones that don't exist anymore, then we can have a none biased discussion.

I'm prepared is all. Not to be a terrorist. I'm prepared to resist and fight if necessary.S.Lythberg wrote:

But as I said earlier, those numbers are both massively inflated and out of context, so debating with him would really be a waste of your time.

Unless you killed insects in order to achieve idealogical, religious or political goals then it isn't technically terrorism.Superior Mind wrote:

As I said before, the US certainly is a terrorist nation, as are most nations. Force or threat of force have been used to achieve political goals by the US. They even got busted at the world court for it. Just because others do it doesn't absolve you from it. The UK certainly carries out acts of terrorism in the present day. We're a terrorist nation, you're a terrorist nation and most other countries are terrorist nations. That's why when countries accuse each other of supporting or engaging in terrorism they sound stupid.

I never said I was a terrorist. I was just telling a story that I wanted to get off my chest. Mind you, I never denied nor implied American being a terrorist nation, I simply asked for the argument to include all nations of the world. Don't be so suggestible, it exposes your human flaws.PureFodder wrote:

[OP list]Let's see ALL of those were either the result of WAR or another nation's war/repression supported by the US...so, what's your point?
to the person posting amazon links, no that is not my source.
and please stick to the topic as i mentioned majority of these MASSACRES were after WW2 in the name of "American freedom"

History Lesson 101: Allies and Axis bombing cities and civilian targets during WWII. The Geneva Convention was signed 1949 declaring indiscriminate attacks are prohibited, so your statement about WWII is void.
To the OP, please look up the word "terrorism" in a dictionary. That should solve the thread.
War =! Terrorism...
War =! Terrorism...

Maybe because we would rather help our fellow man by helping them to become self-sufficient rather than dependent upon the government.

The Frencd killed more Germans in WWI than the other two (Russia and GB) combined. They also pwnd England in the 100 years war, or at least in the battles that actually mattered in the long run.The#1Spot wrote:

The goverments never says the correct figures.S.Lythberg wrote:

I just say that the goverments, any goverment in any country, doesn't always tell the truth.

Nearly every country on this planet has been, or is, a terrorist state. Just depends on what perspective your looking from.
Ask China or Korea how they feel about Japan, or India about Britain, or the Central Americans about the Spanish. Hell, why not go ask the Hittites about the Egyptians. See my point?
