That's an exaggeration.

You think Bush wasn't that different from Saddam Hussein?? Is that a joke? PLEASE tell me that was just a joke.

Old Baldy said:You know Empire, using your analogy, you could say George Washington was responsible for more deaths than the British Empire (i.e., relative to American deaths in my country's colonial period).
However, I'm glad George Washington did what he did.
Do you think Bush wanted to be dictator of the world or wanted, for example, Iraq to be ruled by people who freely vote?
Further, do you think it is wrong for me to believe the leader of Iran is a dictator and that the Iranian people would be better off if they had a population free to vote for the leader of their choice?

Empire said:The leader of Iran is a religious monarchy. They are the mirror image of Britian.

Someone like Richard Dawkins can write a book on atheism, even put ads on the buses that "God probably doesn't exist", but the Islamic Republic of Iran can't even tolerate an author like Salman Rushdi.
Comparing the two countries is like comparing black and white. Despite both of them being colours, in reality they are opposite...

LOL!! We EVADED Afghanistan and Iraq?

Yes... Iran can't even tolerate an author like Salman Rushdi the same way Austria, US, Britian, Germany etc can't tolerate those who merely QUESTION the circumstances of the Holocaust.
People are quick to be up in arms about Irans dictatorship whilst they are living in one!
- People locked up for denying the Holocaust (thanks to the grand old Jewish lobbyists)
- People imprisoned for not paying tax money (which Muslim nations don't do)
- People imprisoned for joking about a bomb at a Canadian Airport for 3 months.
- People removed from Airplanes and placed on No Fly Lists for wearing Anti George Bush tshirt.
- Legislation that allows people to be held in custody and questioned indefinately without a lawyer
BEFORE YOU GO BASHING PLACES LIKE IRAN.. Take a look in your own backyard and realise your living in a fu.cking dictatorship.
And I use the f word to emphasis the brutality of it. The difference between the U.S and Iran is one country is straight out with the rules and regulations, whilst the other gives an "illusion of democracy".

(I have a feel what your next post will be like : "Hey Smooth, you have nothing to say, you cant back your words with facts so you linked to a stupid video, as you clearly have nothing meanning to say, i win! lol i WIN! " LOL im in your mind man, im in your mind!!! :woot: )
j/k post ofc ;P
Edit later: theres one thing i dont get with you conspiracy belivers; why would the US bomb the twins to begin with? what are the intrests?.. i really mean it? why would they US want to invade Iraq and Apgha? they satated that it was for the nukelear facilities right? if thats the case then i m 100% suppot the invasion, if its vengens then im not so sure, but eitherway both are valid reason in my book...

Defending tax evasion? Tax evasion is the same as stealing my money. Anyone who steals my money deserves to rot in prison. I can't believe you are defending criminals stealing MY money. If you don't want to pay tax, don't use the roads, the schools, hospitals, defense systems, etc built with MY money. Go and live in Iran, as far as I know Iran doesn't collect taxes.
The other things have to be answered by the Americans. I don't know about them....
I know a terror suspect can be arrested in Britain and held for a certain time. If there is enough proof that the person in question is a potential terrorist, there is nothing wrong with trying to extract information from him. That's protecting my civil liberties. When he's released and if he can prove his innocence, he can sue the government. That's his right as well, and I will support his rights at the same time. You have to understand that in the EU, even the criminals have rights.
