Oh I don't know, maybe attack a state that was an actual threat and not one that was a dictatorship SUPRESSING Islamic fundamentalists.

The Iraq war is a stupid waste of money, life, and resources. It should've been the Iran war.

This movie just sounds stupid. The screenshots prove it. The US uniforms look cheap and patches are improperly worn.

PS. I bet the Turks would have an anurism if Hollywood made a movie about

Lets face it some of our troops both British and Americans have let us down by their sheer stupidity in photographing things they should have thought more carefully about, and compounding their silly action then posting them on the internet. Now I know it is only a small minority but the publicity has been horrendous and the trouble is that they don't have appeared to learnt any thing by it.

I accept that there is some silly things in that film but what about its subject?
Did you read the "about film"?

Why is anyone getting worked up about this?

Every month a crap American movie is released, in which people from some nationality are demonized (usually Russians, Arabs, Brits and Germans). This is exactly the same, except it's a Turkish movie with American bad guys. Big whoop, wanna fight about it?

Indeed. However, I've seen many US-productions in which US uniforms look cheap, stuff is improperly worn. And there's even more US-movies, in which foreign uniforms look cheap etc.

And they were not before? Activity stops when it is stopped, not by just hoping it disappears.



Man, you must write for al jezeera. There is no price too heavy for freedom.



Has there been another 911? Then I guess the answer would be yes.

Oh Missileer. You seem so upset. You and Bush would make great buddies.

What does it feel like to be now in the minority on the Iraq issue??

You might want to check out how often incoming shipping containers are checked by security at for instance Boltimore, now that you feel so snug and secure at bedtime

The actual topic was refering to Turkey. They do have big issues with the Kurds.

Max Boot of the LA Times published an outstanding article entitled "The West as scapegoat." He points out that many Muslims (and others) would rather blame the USA, Israel and "the West" for all the world's problems rather than engage in some badly needed introspection and reform. He concludes: "Muslim nations will never make any progress unless they stop focusing on the offenses, real or imagined, visited upon them by the outside world and start looking within for what ails them."

Is the only part that interested me in that article.

Edit: This person is repeatedly posting topics without voicing his opinion or even commenting on them. See my reply here: The Money Masters - How The Banksters Scammed The World Maybe if we ignore them they will either pipe up or pipe down.
