at some point all political organizations use some form of terrorism to solidify their power. all of this holier-than-thou posing from around the world is just so much hypocritical bullshit. seldom in the history of mankind have we seen any rise to power that did not utilize some form of strong arm tactics and on those few occasions where strictly peaceful means were used, the power attained was tenuous and fleeting at best.

has the us condoned terrorist acts around the world? of course, as have all other major powers throughout history. the world is a violent place and safety is an illusion that only the ignorant truly believe in. has the us exported terrorism? there was never any need to, it exists everywhere. the fearful ignore it and the greedy embrace the chaos it engenders, but only a fool would claim that its origin is anything but universal.

throughout its recent history the us has attempted to bring some sort of order to the far reaches of the globe. though the goal may be seen as noble by some, it has brought this country nothing but ridicule and suffering. while all counties have attempted to profit from the general tumult, at least the us has also attempted to alleviate some of the suffering.

if you are going to label a society, at least have the decency to take all of its act into account before passing judgment.


to you peaceful canadians:
you might just keep in mind that canada has always been more than willing to join in the mayhem to curry favor with the big boys; never getting in deep enough to be blamed if things go wrong, but always enough to share in any spoils that might happen their way.
