The war on terrorism is bogus.

[Faust]

quote: Socialism and communism cause poverty.

Yes if you take poverty to mean "not having money" but money isnt important - what it gets you is.  Just by becoming a communist country you do not lower the amount of resources your country has, nor will other countries stop trading with you.  You can still give off all those useless rocks your country has for another countries food and other crap you want so its not like you have less resources at your disposable - just a different way of distributing those resources.

What, it isn't bogus because there are a lot of Muslim terrorists around?

Have you read Aesop's fable of the Wind and the Sun? It's quite simple so even a republican should be able to understand it. Maybe there wouldn't be so many angry terrorists if reactionary idiots like you and Bush realised that the best way to deal with an deadly hornets' nest is not to go pissing on it.

The article said that the war against terrorism was bogus. Terrorism does indeed exist, but Bush's 'war against terrorism' is only an excuse to execute his political agenda.

Terrorism is the result of colonial western countries meddling in the affairs of other countries, and the poverty of Middle East countries comes from the West messing up their economy by grabbing their ressources. Essentially, the fallacious rhetoric of Bush and the PNAC neo-conservatives is that they are going to bring global peace under the American behest by going to war against the very problem they caused in the first place.

You people who call yourselves leftists are liars.  You are really just cowards.  Real leftists want to help the poor and those in need.

Why do you think leftists are liars? What does this have to do with helping the poor? Right people also give to the poor. Do you even know for sure what right and left is? This is a pretty unclear classification, isn't it?
