We are fighting two of course. And for what reason are we fighting these wars?
Are they justified or not?
Did we get attacked on 9-11 by people being trained in Afghanistan or not?
Did Saddam play games with the UN about his wmd and do himself in?
Was he a dictator under sanctions by the world community?
Was Israel given the green light by the international community to settle in land not even arab owned?
Okay what are the double standards? You clearly suffer from optical anti american itis.
Why dont you move to Iran?

And, sorry for the mis spelling on my last post but I'm sure you catch my drift...BYW Iran is attacking another country right now. Through 3 proxies....Hezbollah in lebanon. Hamas in Gaza (notice I diddnt say palestine) and Iraq. I have a feeling things are going to break loose soon too.
The reason Iran has not attacked anyboy is beacuse they have allways been a 3rd world isloted country until the days of the Shaw. Hard to attack another country on a donkey with koran in hand. If you think isolated groups are training and funding Sard's militia you are obviously looking away from reality. Iran is a police state. The types of weapons they are finding in Iraq arent browning 22's bought from the local gun shop my friend. These are military grade weapons straight from the Revolutairy gaurd. I would go ahead and present facts as to Irans government wanting to kill infidels but I'm sure you are smart enough to either know it allready or you are are just in your own headspace and cant admit it.

Are you perhaps saying that Iran did not have elections? In that case you are wrong. Iran had fair election last time I checked. Or what you mean by that?
Fair elections my rear. They fairly give them a choice of radical Islamics to be puppet presidents and not have the true power that the Ayatollah has. The real leader of the country.
OMG Iran is former Persia. Persia? Rings any bells? I think it is far from 3rd world 'categorization'.
Wrong again. Yes in the early days they were a once powerful and evil nation bent on killing and conquering everything they wanted. Thankfully Alexander destroyed them. Ever since then yes they have been a third world country and had the chance of not being one under the leadership of the Shaw.
Do you know how many countries US and Israel are attacking 'through their proxies'? Try to count - if you can count that far. What are you doing in Somalia? What are you doing in Afghanistan, in Iraq? That's already three, but we can go on.
Yes we are fighting the lunatic Islamics where ever we can because we want to kill them where ever we can. They are uncivilized butchers bent on converting everyone to their sick twisted religion of the anti-Christ. "ISLAM"
I am getting tired of this BS. Why are peeps so ignorant? Can't blame them I guess. Maybe they need the slap on the face to wake from their slumber
I think I have just shown you that you are the ignorant one here so go slap yourself bud.

In the early 20 century, when Jewish mass immigration to Palestine began, the local Arab population was overwhelmingly rural and many cultivated land owned by aristocratic families who resided in Jerusalem, Beirut or Damascus.
There was no urban working class in Palestine and thus no labor movement. Hence, related political ideology was prevalent among the new immigrants who arrived mainly from Russia, which was on the verge of a Socialist revolution.
In the context of Zionism, however, the egalitarian and internationalist components of Socialism were made to fit the colonialist nature of Jewish national aspirations in Palestine. Thus, Labor Zionism emerged as a distinct political ideology, which proved to be the most successful movement in the nation-building process and which has - though at first glance it seems more “leftist” and less openly aggressive towards the indigenous population - contributed largely to the continuous marginalization, exclusion and expulsion of the Arab population from Palestine.
After World War I, with growing Jewish immigration and a new colonial ruler, the British Empire, the local Arab population was confronted with a number of new and unknown challenges, including rapid industrialization and large-scale colonialist settlement.
The Zionist claim that Palestine was "a land without a people" is challenged by pro-Palestinian historians who cite census figures showing a substantial Palestinian-Arab population by 1914. The Zionists note that most of this increase seems to have occurred after 1880, when Jews began developing Palestine. In particular, Joan Peters ("From Time Immemorial") claimed that a large proportion of the population increase among Arabs was due to immigration. Pro-Palestinian historians try to make a case that Zionist settlement had begun displacing Palestinians before 1948.
