    A: I told you, China is different.


    China is a little different. They dont gas their own country. They don't murder people for opposing the goverment along with the families. Zero. For someone a lot older than me you should know that.
    Then you must be too young to remeber tiananmen square or the ongoing mongolian genocide.

    Howdy,
    Ditto FillYourBrain.
    At the present he is a POW and should be treated like one. Then he should be tryed be the Iraqi people, not the coalition governing council then he should be turned over to the US to be tryed and disposed of in Boron or maybe Santa Fe where he will be treated very well by some of Americas finest.

    M.R.
    I don't like you very much. Please post a lot less.

    *and then*
    No, I know you were joking. My point still stands.

    Agreed.

    Zakk, just quit trying on these sort of things. You're almost always wrong.

    I don't think the people of China would be cheering in the streets like the Iraqies did if we were to take control. Please stop being liberal. I don't care if you are 20 years older than me, that doesn't make me stupid. I watch as much politics and news as you do.

    CNN makes you dumb. Try reading some history books for a change. The people of Tibet and Taiwan would certainly cheer if the Chinese government crumbled; and dare I say, quite a few of the several billion people in China would also celebrate. This has nothing to do with being "liberal" - don't argue, look at the facts.

    Heh. CNN is the LAST show I would watch. Thats the most biast show I have had the unfortune to watch. I tend to read news sites and watch news channels. I get a good overall picture that way than watching one liberal channel.

    Liberalism has nothing to do with it. It's the fact that's what you say is usually 100% wrong. China is guilty of TONS of human rights violations just as bag as anything Hussein can dream up.

    Guys, you're not being fair. He watches the news, so obviously he knows everything ever. Let him speak.

    This is unfortunate. I am a conservative and I know that is the minority around here but I can't stand the way Zakk presents himself. When I mentioned children talking politics, I did mean more than just Zakk though. The fact is, people are very idealistic when they are young. As they get older they realize that there is a more reasonable (and quieter) middle ground. Just be aware that these conversations are a waste of your lives. That is all.

    Peace.

    I am far from liberal. But I do understand the grey area that is involved in every aspect of world politics. I don't think we are doing anything now that the other countries have not done in the past. We are using our military to further our country's political agenda. Granted we do it on a bigger scale.

    Likewise, feel free to ignore liberals who dance to the beat of "no blud 4 oil".
