    isn't that what I said, both have done bad deeds in the past, if you want to know the names of everyone that killed an American Indian, look it up yourself

    Indeed. You just say this with no reference and no proof.
    Your imperialist feeling of superiority is what is going to destroy you. You do not know what you are talking about so immersed are you in your ability to take without consequence the lives and living space of anywhere you want, manipulating the world like a toy to suit your interest. The Gulf States have been meeting as the Saud's are worried the US is not going to attack. You had better believe it that an attack on Iran whether by you or by anyone else will result in the entire ME going up in flames and that may involve your dear Israel which you are hoping will make toast out of the people of Iran who you believe should be submissive to your imperialist selves.


    What the hell you are bringing in the genocide of American Indians into your seeming desire of a genocide of Iranians I do not know. Do you think it was Iranians who did the genocide on American Indians? Look closer to home and stop repeating this behaviour.
    what the hell are you on about now. It is your insidious objective of genocide against the people of Iran and the consequences of you trying that which we were discussing. Now you claim I am all wrong and bring in your genocide of American Indians as if that is some excuse for your belief that you can destroy Iran and do another genocide on the people of Iran.

    Maybe you are a CZ.

    My point is that it was essentially a war with both sides doing the slaughtering for a variety of reasons.
    Extremely different from the atrocities of the Khmer Rouge and other communist regimes.

    To calk the Indian wars a one sides genocide perpetrated by America. Is a flat out lie.
    Hell most of it took place before there was an America.

    Alexa, I don't need to reference the given and accepted fact that Iran would lose a military war to the US and Israel almost before it started.

    In fact, it would take a week at the most to toast Iran and turn out its lights.

    You can live in the dark if you want, and your denial does not change that.

    To deny that he American Indians were genocided by Euro-American is a denial of reality.

    You're full of bullcrap. It was a brutal war but genocide generally denotes a one sided event. The Indian wars were anything but one sided which i have shown.

    I am not, neither are you, but your arguments, Allen, are full of bull crap. The American Indians over the centuries had far more to fear from the Euro-Americans than they did from the Native Americans. You have certainly not even come close to showing that racial warfare was tit for tat. What is your agenda here? Why are you trying to distort (and failing) the nature of warfare between the groups?

    You could nuke Iran. That does not mean you would win any war

    it's history, if you don't care your free to ignore the post and move on to the next

    America is the greatest country on earth, doesn't mean we have not done bad things in the past

    The Euro-Americans, yes, were worse overall than the American Indians.

    Never said America perfect ot even close. Just the best , and not because wechave always been thr best people or had the best leader. But we have a system that ensures the best results.

    The right wing hasn't had its way in America since the 1950s.
    If you have a problem with America today look left not right.

    No such thing as a euro American. There are Europeans or Americans.

    No such thing as not an "euro American." The term is used overwhelmingly by historians and sociologists and anthropologists. To deny that fact is laughable.

    The right wing is failing due to misinformation from the left. The left always tears things down. They never build anything.
    From it's very beginning the left has been about destruction never about building.
    That is why their policies are destructive. They are not designed to do anything else.

    In this instance we are talking about American culture. Thr left has nothing to replace it with except hatred and anger.

    Bollocks, Allen. The right fails because they can't change with the times. The left builds, the left moves forward, the right blocks, the left always ends up kicking the right out of the way. American culture is changing, will change, and it will not be 20th century early America.

    The right's anger and hatred will not change the becoming of the better America that is coming.

    Thank you for admitting to look to the rwnj for failure. The anger and hate comes from the right.

    War with Iran is stupid. The failure of the right to meet the left in order to fix our border issues is stupid.
