I did... and I believe the cause was rational I still remember watching the tower's fall in school and am quite pleased with sticking some of uncle sam's power up there asses....They bring it upon themselve's
I don't condone what they did..... just the same as I don't condone us slaughtering them on a daily basis. If your family was killed by a missle from a foreign country I'm sure you'd harbor some resentment too. America kills more Muslims in one day than they will kill Americans in the next 100 years.Ya ....What's your thought process that they had a reason to send 2 jumbo jets into the side of skyscraper's...or a seperate group all together goes around lopping off heads and people should be more worried about cig's and that other garbage..Just because its a fraction of a percent? It's only a fraction of a percent because people Do not just shriek at these group's....As for reason's to hate the west these people hate themselves of course they have a reason to hate everybody else
Couldn't agree more. Plus beheadings are simply propaganda tools for recruitment, and to rile up America into fighting with them. I feel for the journalist who've lost their lives but they were aware of the occupational hazard they faced reporting in a conflict zone. And is beheading any worse than being shot? An individual is dead either way. One is simply more barbaric and for shock value.I don't condone what they did..... just the same as I don't condone us slaughtering them on a daily basis.

And yes, if you chose to be honest with yourself, you stand a much better chance of dying from a shitty lifestyle (or being trampled by a herd of buffalo) than you do at the hands of some crazed jihadist.
I mostly blame religion. If people didn't believe in the sky fairy, and all of the complete bullshit that comes with it most of this would never happen. Bat shit crazy
Let's say....that we ALL understand why they're mad. And we - as a country - apologize. Sincerely.A little history may explain why the middle east isn't a particular fan of western culture... or we can simply pretend they hate us for no reason, it's easier.
He may be - he may not be. What, in your opinion, does it matter, at this point, stOw?Mock it all you want, but he's spot on.
I consider you both friends. In the spirit of friendly discussion, I ask you both: do either of you feel, that your genuine empathy for the jihadists inspiration changes anything?Here is just a sample to get anyone started as to why people on the middle east hate the west...
Ahhh.....you assume much, amigo. I've never stated anything resembling anyone's 'nobility of cause'.Why don't you enlist Amos? You seem convinced that this threat is imminent, and that the casue is a noble one. What's holding you back?
Let's say....that we ALL understand why they're mad. And we - as a country - apologize. Sincerely.
Do they then say: "well, okeee dokee....apology accepted" ??

At what point, do you consider that the beheaded woman in Oklahoma, and the ambushed guard in Canada, likely had no part in the things that you both seem to believe provoked their murderers?
Seriously.

StOw.....you're still attempting to assign blame. Fiddling while the world combusts.How about we shutter the military bases all over the middle east, pull all troops out of that region, quit meddling in their affairs and see what happens? Do you not feel that this (at least in part) contributes to the hatred that they feel towards us? Seriously, how would you feel about China if they set up military bases all over America and indiscriminately dropped bombs on us? Would you feel driven to retaliate, or would you just say "okee dokey"??
I know.I don't have the answers, to be honest
Whose slaughtering them? There own people are whose slaughtering them, ISIS is the only group being slaughtered right now.... and if you choose to be a innocent party siding with them you then bring it upon yourself......Just like Al qaeda brought it upon themselves.....Just like Hussein brought it upon himself ......Just like when Bashar Al assad starting killing INNOCENT school kid's and gassing INNOCENT people he brought it upon himself when people fuck up against other people like that they have it coming. If you leave them all alone they will just go back to what they have been doing warring since the time's of Genesis..It will spill out and like I said its only a fraction because there are people to make sure it stay's that way.....I bet if you just left them alone that would change drasticallyI don't condone what they did..... just the same as I don't condone us slaughtering them on a daily basis.

Wake up, friend - there's no going back. Pandora is out of the box.
Not in particular, if more people didn't pretend to know the answers to questions, perhaps introspection, education, and further exploration into the problem could yield possible answers down the road.I know.
Troubling, isn't it?
I think you've been brainwashed. Not trying to be a dick, but you are towing the company lineThere hatred for the west stems

So...your response is....we survived Hitler, we'll survive anything?I don't buy that.
Knowing why something happens helps to prevent it from happening again. Dropping bombs on them is assuring it will happen again. I'm sure many people felt the same way when Hitler was doing his thing ..... but the world didn't stop spinning.
And....perhaps not.Not in particular, if more people didn't pretend to know the answers to questions, perhaps introspection, education, and further exploration into the problem could yield possible answers down the road.
As you are towing the 'other' company's line. You don't see that? You think you're view is 'outside the box' ???I think you've been brainwashed. Not trying to be a dick, but you are towing the company line
stOw and TY conveniently leave out why ISIS is 'so mad' at their fellow sand dwellers, don't they? LOLI will assume you are not talking about them warring with themselves and killing thousand's of there own neighbor's.
