Thread: The crisis in Syria

I'm not surprised that President Putin would support a UN resolution for strikes if there's proof that Assad used the chemicals. Russia's a legit country that respects International laws.
Now I needa find a hammer so I can smash my Bloodhound Gang CD and toss it in the trash. I'll never listen to that band again.

But, you already liked them enough to listen to them the first time. Hey, I like the Pearl Harbour Meme.... good one.

Вообще, прикольно слушать американцев. Даже противники войны против Сирии ссылаются на интересы США. Мол, это дорого, не эффективно и т.д. Но не говорят, что это несправедливо, бесчеловечно, жестоко и т.д.

Yeah, nobody's suppose to think about all the suffering. They think it's a game but it's not. It's destroying peoples' lives.

No, dad liked them enough to buy me the CD. They were never one of my favorite bands but the music was okay. Even the Russians that went to the concert liked them till they desecrated the flag. Then they stopped liking them and so did I.
And yean, imo, a "surgical strike" is an Act of War. Also we would be attacking a country that didn't attack us and that's just wrong on so many levels!
What's even worse is that we would be fighting for Al-Qaeda and that's treason! A lot of US soldiers are saying they won't do that.

EDIT. Something interesting to add. President Putin calling Kerry a liar.

Those Russians going to the concert just went uninformed, not knowing anything... much like the fans of Putin.

Seriously, I don't think one can say something positive about being a fan of something and not even having a clue.

Kerry a liar? Most people who investigated that clown know about him already. He was being groomed for being a warmonger long ago.

Huh? Why?

[Google-googlity-googling...]

Oh, I see!

Well, the Ukrainian audience seemed to like the gesture... but I can see why Russians were upset!

*If you spend much time talking with veterans of war, you will find that they tend to fall into both the anti-war and pro-war camps. After all, the US glorifies war, and veterans are praised for their service. That is why many of them send their sons off to fight in wars as well. They believe it is the honorable thing to do. There are also plenty of veterans who return for multiple tours.

Oh. Well I know Obama never did any military service and neither did Bush (except stateside).

But I still don't get why anyone would sign up for the milirary if they were anti-war. Btw, I'm not anti-war but I am anti-this-war.

Chirping's never cool and especially against other countries.
Anyway, Brokencyde's 1st album and the Midnight Beast trump Bloodhound Gang! And they sound really lame compared to the World Alive, Sum 41, Psyko Punkz, Avenged 7x, and tons more bands. Even Cage the Elephant trumps Bloodhound Gang so no huge loss! If I wanna hear that style of music, I'll listen to 5 Finger Death Punch or Hollywood Undead.
I think the only bands worse than Bloodhound gang were White Stripes and Nickelback.

Well, their loss anyway. They got their rotten eggs and tomatoes for what they did.
It is sad though because they and their supporters think that they are heroes but in reality they are just mediocre and foolish copycats.
