"We had NO part in any of those previous wars?"
I realize this question is facetious, but I'm assuming you (abcdxxxx) either haven't read what I posted in the "Infringing on rights" column, or dismissed it as conspiratorial tripe. In either case, I stand by it so my views on what we're doing in the middle east is a little different. These conflicts which we have been dealing with for the past decade are the result of the proxy soldiers and causes we created through-out the seventies and eighties. Kevin is right in that our foreign policy agenda is so short sighted it has fatal consquences for us later on down the line. I don't we can honestly say life in Afghanistan was worse before our interference (cold war actions, that is), though perhaps it might have become worse without it.
"Look, the axis was Iran, N. Korea, and Iraq. This is such common knowledge, I'm not even going to further the debate, it has very little to do with what we were discussing. "
Sure, they were the three countries defined as the Axis of Evil, but our tanks are being hit with Russian munitions which have, reportedly, been linked back to sales from Russia to Syria. I would think that Sharon was right in linking them to the Axis and therefore making them a potential enemy.
"I am responding to a claim that someone made that we have slaughtered all these Iraqi and Afgahnistani people. I would just like the numbers, please."
Here you go asshole. Sspad is totally justified in his assertion.

I had something else to add, but it slipped my mind, so I'll leave things as they are.
