"When Hamas does it we call it terrorism, when we do it we call it collateral damage." Couldn't be more true.

Good video. These drone attacks place our country in moral turpitude. Where is our humanity?

End the drone strikes!

Pressure all pols to end all military action.

Identify, denounce, ridicule all pols spewing the fear mongering 'war on terror' propaganda used to garner support amongst a scared population!

It's so funny that you continue throwing a racial slur and thinking it means something else, like you have some cool slang or something.

Racial slur? What do you read as a racial slur?

It's more fun to see if you figure it out on your own by watching your future comments. As we both know, our direct interactions aren't as meaningful or fun.

And the hypocrisy continues....more war, more bombs, more theft....

Has it always been like this, throughout time? Or is it getting worse?

[-] -1 points by john23 (-272) 11 years ago

Thought about that too (has it always been like this). Maybe it's just we have the opportunity to really tune in these days via internet and other social media areas...i kind of get the impression that this has been going on for decades - it was just harder to come across the info back then and easier to cover up.

Most of the older people I meet say that things are more messed up than ever before now.

I think the overall population wouldnt have been able to screw over this hard back in the day. Probably a bit more aware and active than nowadays.

Too bad this forum is currently hijacked. Otherwise, this would be a popular thread. Good post. But I'm sure this comment will be down-voted and the war and violence aspect of this will fall on deaf ears because it provides hard data which is heavily discouraged here. Some replies you can expect will involve partisan attacks to keep partisanship to the fore, and personal attacks to discredit the activist nature of the thread and my comment.

Agree..it's a shame when facts are disregarded because of partisan politics.

Sure i'll get down voted too - but I don't think the alternative in this election (Romney) would have put a stop to this in the slightest...maybe would hae even upped this game. Third party was/is the answer.
