 Because we are the lap dog of Americans

 

I am still waiting for an answer.  I am very confused   You see...at the time "we" went to war with Iraq we were told it was because Iraq had weapons of mass distruction.  I am just wondering what the real secret reason was and why the American public did not have a public outcry that they were blatently lied to

Spare me the sarcasm.

 

You know as well as anybody that there´s a multitude of unjustified reasons why Iraq was invaded. I´m sure you are familiar with those due to your own country´s involvement. I´m sure neither you nor I are proud or approve of them.

 

It is however NOT a genocide of Muslims BECAUSE they are Muslims.

 

So by your reasoning, if China suddenly decide to attack the US, with no explanation, and bomb whole cities causing mass death to civilians it is OK because they are just casualities of war?

I think the reason of invading a country id nothing to do with the genocide at all..

I think that is the point where our  ´clever´ friends are getting confused here..

 

It does not matter why USA or the UK went to the war as far as "making the judgment if it was a genocide or not is concerned"

 Again, you are missing the point as I already admitted my comments had nothing to do with "genocide" but were going off topic as I was interested in Melek´s casualties of war comment.

We already had this discussion and you already asked me that here. My opinions have not changed since. Unlike you I don´t experience fluctuations in personality.

I have NEVER said it´s ok for any country to attack another and I´ve NEVER said it´s ok for a person or a country to kill even ONE other person. I will call it genocide if China decides to wipe all Americans off the face of the earth because of their nationality, ethinicity or religion. I will NOT call it genocide if reasons are economic for example.

If you have difficulties understanding the point I was making, you can ask me to explain it. Don´t try to provoke me into an argument about a totally different issue.

It is interesting how some parts of history are described as "genocide" and others are not.  A good example is the Spanish Inquisition (a perfect example of genocide) which has never been referred to as that in any history book that I can find.  In addition, it is only in very recent years that "genocide" has been used to describe the mass killing of American Indians.
