40% of the people who join the Taliban are people who are tired of Americans killing innocent civilians so they go crazy.

Because the United States never does anything wrong and are little angels?
[QUOTE=coldroll5;38965915]Because the United States never does anything wrong and are little angels?[/QUOTE] He never said that. There are probably any number of reasons why someone would join that.
[QUOTE=coldroll5;38965915]Because the United States never does anything wrong and are little angels?[/QUOTE] You are just putting words in my mouth. People join the Taliban for a vast, diverse amount of reasons, and it is not just because civilian deaths have happened. They join for ideological reasons, religious ones, and because they want to control the country to set in place their own version of how it "should be." There are more reasons, but some of those are the big ones.
[QUOTE=NoDachi;38956797]But you [B]are[/B] acting as an authority. People are saying that killing this guy is 100% a good thing based on two little words of information, 'taliban' and 'commander'. I understand critical thinking is beyond most facepunchers but come on, is your world understanding really that simplified?[/QUOTE] I never said that anyone's death is a 100% good thing, I just said that it's not necessarily a 100% bad thing either. That's all. I think we agree on a lot more than we disagree, the difference being that I'm connecting the person's death to the end of their direct influence as opposed to seeing them as two separate things.
