Tom, I must admit you are the most mysterious person on this board for me, in spite of all my good attitude to you. I just cannot understand your motivation. Do you feel pain of every human being innocently killed? Then how about this:
... (Mapra goes on to mention Vietnam War and Chenchen conflict to somehow try to prove how heartless Tom is)

I have no sympathy for terrorists of any kind. But notice I did say that I hoped they were captured and punished. These women murdered innocent civilians whose only crime was wanting to go out for a night's entertainment.Originally posted by Mapraputa Is:
From what I read, women who participated in an attack, all had their relatives killed. I wonder, how this did not make you feel at least some sympathy for them.

As we the people of America like to say, there is no free lunch. If the government takes half of my pay to provide for free education and free medical assistance, I want to fire that government and use my money the way I want. And what if I don't want education and medical assistance, -- why should I pay for your college and your brain surgery? I don't care about the welfare of your "whole population", just let me be!

I'll let you be; all your fellow Americans 'let you be' and let you die when things don't work out for you sometimes, because there's no 'society', no social behaviour, no 'civilization' going on in the USA....You're not a society, you're just a bunch of isolated individuals who complain about others not exhibiting social behaviour while in the mean time you exhibit none.

Hey, that's exactly what makes this country great. Paradoxically enough, the power and stability of US is based on the ideas of free entrepreneurship, individual interest, self-sufficiency, diversity, and independence from the society and the state.
The last thing I want to do is to be a part of a "society", -- I've had enough of that shit for 20 years under the communists in Russia. I had free education and free medical care, but I feel really nauseated by it. It's just a vomit that the government pushed down my throat, and I feel like throwing it back to the government.

Jos :
"I'll let you be; all your fellow Americans 'let you be' and let you die when things don't work out for you sometimes, because there's no 'society', no social behaviour, no 'civilization' going on in the USA."
Typically Jos rants and vents, adds little substance to any discussion, stamps his feet, then leaves. His posting in the "anti-Americanism" thread is typical. He claims Americans built Gulags, I ask for documentation via URL and then he jumps to this thread and mid-topic begins yet another Anti-American tirade.. :roll:

Perhaps you missed my last message, Jos. I tried to phrase it generally, but you may take it as directed at you in particular (though not exclusively by any means). If you want to help encourage all Americans to dismiss your opinions out of hand, you're doing a good job.

I also apologized for it, and later said that I think American people are better informed and more rational than Russian, but Eugene is free to refute me on this.
