[QUOTE=kaine123;31460041]Brown people are still people too.[/QUOTE] Of course they are. However, the US government has sworn to protect the lives of Americans, not Syrians. Besides, this is none of our business. We simply cannot afford to invade another country. We have our own problems.
[QUOTE=ThePutty;31453758]It annoys me to no end that no government is doing anything about Syria or Bahrain. Hey idiots, sanctions do fuck all.[/QUOTE]The situation in Bahrain is not really comparable to Syria at all and the 5th Fleet is stationed in Bahrain so there's not much the U.S. can do.

Yes the US makes up most of NATO, but letting a rampaging madman slaughter his entire population because "it's not our business" is the worst thing anybody could possibly say

It's fucking weak to attack your own people will military assets. [QUOTE=Rofl my Waff;31454331]Well one of their neighbors is Israel, who consistently gets away with things like this. Maybe they are learning from example![/QUOTE] You really hate Israel? This is way worse then what Israel done. [QUOTE=Dr_Funk;31464495]when israeli troops invade tel aviv and start shooting protesters with tanks, i'll consider the validity of your argument[/QUOTE] I remember a video where a tank fires at some idiots at a corner jumping around and people with cameras.

[QUOTE=Sexy Eskimo;31467891]I remember a video where a tank fires at some idiots at a corner jumping around and people with cameras.[/QUOTE] Do you by any chance mistake that for the recording of an US helicopter shooting reporters because they mistook their cameras for rocket launchers? [editline]2nd August 2011[/editline] Because that has nothing to do with this whatsoever
No it wasn't the WikiLeaks video, it was an Israeli tank firing on a camerman who wore a clear 'PRESS' jacket. Eight other Palestinians nearby aged between 12 and 20 were also killed in the blast. Again, the Israeli "justice" system found him of no wrong-doing.

[QUOTE=Rofl my Waff;31474542]Read up on the civilian death count on the last gaza war ;)[/QUOTE] About 900 dead civilians from most sources, the idf got a lower number claiming that most of them were related to hamas probably biased. In the Syrian conflict about 1500 civilians are now dead, just since the people in power won't allow democracy. Using military and police aid at their own people. Not sure whats worse :v:
