Hey, awhile ago you tried to say Nixon (like most Republicans by your def.) are war hungry people. Which I did correct you but you still seem to have not acknowledged it (Vietnam). Wait a sec, didn't Nixon pull the troops out? oh yeah and before that who put them in?
Well when the Irani President states that Israel should be wiped off the face of the earth and that their end will come soon at the same time Iran is developing a nuclear program that has the real possibility of turning into a bomb would make anyone uneasy...

Didn't Nixon promise that soon as he got into office, he would pull them out? How long did it take him? That's what I thought, now shut up.
Ever heard of Scare Tactics? Guess not.

It wouldn't be called an offical crusade; it would be called a crusade in the case of an ultimate struggle.
Bush never said it was a holy crusade
It's not a holy war. You can't just make assumptions like that or you'll look retarded. What, just because a majority of Americans were catholic when we invaded Vietnam, it was a holy war? Give me a quote, then i'll shut the hell up.
And George Bush didn't even use thw word crusade, he used the word invasion, war, etc.
If you're sticking to your story that this is a holy crusade, you are either:
a. Trying to make Bush look as bad as possible which I don't have a problem with until it gets into complete blasphemy (you are doing this very thing).
or
b. You think that any nation that has gone to war with another nation with a different national religion was on a holy crusade.

Ultimate struggle for what? Power? Money? Revenge? Those doesn't justify a war. That's what ALL wars are. Struggles for POWER, REVENGE, or MONEY. Fueled by GREED.
Look at the Romans. They conquered most of their known world. And for what? POWER.
The Greeks. Alexander The Great. Fought for: POWER.
World War One. Fought because Arch Duke Ferdinan (Or was it Ferdinand?) was murdered. And for why? Revenge.
World War Two. Fought because Hitler was invading countries (Power), and wanted to kill all the Jews (Revenge)
Korean War. POWER
Vietnam War. POWER
Desert Storm. MONEY. Iraq invaded Kuwait because they devised a way to drill diagonally into Iraq, and steal their Oil. The Americans (Bush Sr. btw. Isn't it kind of IRONIC?) said we had Iraq's back, so they invaded. Turns out that we lied, and beat Saddam out. Only to have Kuwait be our Oil buddies. Oil = MONEY.
Operation Freedom Crusade (Known as, "The War On Terrorism" to you ignorant) POWER and MONEY. Power over the Middle East by forming Democratic nations where Democracy has never been before (Also infringing Muslims religious activities) and MONEY by creating these Democratic nations to trade their Oil with the United States at cheep cheep prices (Because WE put THEM in POWER).
If you knew ANYTHING about the Psychology of humans, you would know that EVERY SINGLE ACTION humans do, is fueled by GREED. To bad you're going to blow me off, and call me a conspiracy theorist, just because I know how human actions are dicated within' their mind.
Maybe you should just shut up? Everything you spout out in ANY of the political threads, is recycled conservative garbage and propaganda that ignorant fools like yourself (And Chris) eat up on a daily basis because it is so candy-coated lovey-dovey BULLcrap. It's sad how the United States is full of ignorant retards that can be manipulated with simple little words. It's getting rather old how you will NEVER open up your fragile little mind to what THE REAL WORLD is.
"But what you say is lies, and personal beliefs!"
If you use LOGIC, you can see that the world is full of manipulative, worthless pieces of absolute crap. The human race DESERVES what is comming. We deserve a nuclear holocaust because of IGNORANT RETARDS. If the world wasn't so ignorant, we wouldn't have wars at all. But guess what? THERE ARE.
Didn't use the words Crusade? Better go back to some of his earliest speeches fool.
Hey! I didn't know that you could read minds! Good job! Continue to read my mind, because you just know exactly what I'm thinking. I never knew you had such powers. That's totally AWESOME! Hell yeah!
Get my point? You can't even FATHOM why I dispise Bush and hate America right now because you're to damn brainwashed by conservative BULLcrap.
But I'm just a deranged conspiracy theorist, so my arguments are not plausible.
