Quote:We are there to serve the interests of the nations we are little lapdogs for. Nothing more nothing less. This nonsense about having our own national interests is just fairytale stuff, and I suspect you know it.
Of course. But we're a little country with no real ability to project our power abroad. The reality of geopolitics is that many small countries are ineluctably brought under the aegis and influence of major powers; in our case, the United States.
Quote:Actually that'd be a Mongol-response. It doesn't surprise me you'd consider such barbarity to be acceptable.
I see no reason from our vantage point in this situation the denziens of the Muslim world deserve their existences to be valued in any significant way. If we ever let the lives of a few people get in the way of the eradication of those that seriously our threaten our kin and the integrity of our tribe we will only find ourselves pushed aside by others that have sharper elbows and a firmer sense of their own peoplehood.
Your brothers in arms certainly aren't reluctant to apply this principle in their treatment of Westerners.
Quote:You are little more than an ape who learnt how to type and realised he might get more bananas by sticking together with the other apes who look and smell just like him.
Wouldn't he? If he started letting the other, weaker, band of apes into his territory they would probably just start complaining about how their inability to obtain as many bananas as his group of apes was directly a result of his apes discriminating against them in the banana collecting process. Then a small, effeminate subset of his apes would start sympathizing with these apes and start passing jungle laws establishing that his apes are required to relinquish 5% of their annual bananas and mangos to the weaker apes and start allowing more and more of the weaker apes in via junglegration. Eventually the weaker apes would form a majority group and start creating, without the aid of the sympathizing apes of the other group, overtly discriminatory policies in banana and mango collecting schools and the palm tree corporate workforce. The territory would then become so inefficient and poorly run that the band of monkeys from the east end of the rainforest would notice and overrun and destroy the former territory, taking it, and all of the bananas, for themselves.
