And I suppose you don't have any sympathy for the innocent victims of the leaders holding their countries back, as long as it keeps those countries from being a threat to yours?
As to the Savages comment, yes the people in the middle east (and rest of the world) who rape, burn people alive, spout religious nonsense etc. ARE savages, and should not be treated with the same respect and civility that we treat each other, hate me and my comment all you like people, it doesn't change that black, white, Asian etc. if you are a sub human douche bag who condones or does this stuff, you need to be gotten rid of.
Do you understand the difference between criticizing the actions of people who do commit horrible crimes and declaring an entire region of the world to be "savages"? One is legitimate outrage, the other is blatant racism.
He is being allowed to hold his country back, if the people don't like it then they can do something about it, I know its not nice for such things to happen, but when a government becomes that corrupt or an ideology is holding you back, then it needs to change, its up to them to do so.
And yep I understand the difference, and I expanded upon it, I went on to say that ANYONE, REGARDLESS OF RACE OR CREED OR RELIGION (not shouting, just spelling out clearly for your sake) is a SAVAGE if they commit these offences, again, ANYONE, you clearly however don't know the difference between condemning these actions and not being racist.
example: All middle eastern people are savages (clearly racist)
Example: All people in the middle east and the rest of the world who act savagely are savages (Clearly not racist and not condoning animalistic behaviour)
So please next time before you attempt to jump down my neck, learn to read properly.
