Thanks for sharing your insight Aenigma

I agree completely with KeithL on this matter and I think it's sad to see how that propaganda machine is trying to stir up religious conflicts. They are supposed to be a professional news station, how can they not check up on their stories?? Disappointing.

Argh....this is disgusting! I could not open up the first link without logging in, but second one was bad enough. Unfortunatly such things exist. We should not focus on them.
Most Americans are NOT like this. In this situation you have a lot of adolescents whose hormones are still in emotional developmental flux.

Of course, many signed up because they really thought they were fighting for a just cause, or they needed and thought they would get much needed educational benefits. One should realize as wekk that some professions attract a percentage of people who like to lord it over others with their power. I believe these people are called sociopaths or psycopathic personalities.

Being in a protracted conflict situation wears on the mind and can cause those in it to go "bezerk". It must be very difficult to be in a situation where you are constantly in peril of being hit with a IED or other type of device. You can't tell who the enemy is.

I read once that the Vikings recognized this condition and limited their people to a certain amount of time so as to prevent them going bezerk.

Humans are in essense at our base pack animals. We can revert rapidly to a "us" and "them" mentality. The most basic obvious parametors are set for the "them" and the "us". "They" are brown, wear certain types of garments and so forth.

Let's hope we soon recognize we are all part of the whole and stop this stupid counterproductive hateful behaviour. There are enough problems without making more.

There are high and low in every people. This weekend I heard a wonderful program on "This American Life"

http://www.thislife.org/Radio_Episode.aspx?sched=1205

Act One. And So We Meet Again.

Sam Slaven is an Iraq War veteran who came home from the War plagued by feelings of hate and anger toward Muslims. TAL producer Lisa Pollak tells the story of the unusual action Sam took to change himself, and the Muslim students who helped him do it. (34 minutes)

i am disgusted of the videos..howww?howwwwwwww???i was going to write that includes my feelings less but..howw its not possible right now...
what kind of profession are u talking about? i would never be a Palestinian who has to save Israel ambassy..we are human..not robots...

Laila, what the hell do these videos have to do with the topic? And... now that you have made the dubious decision to post them, may I just point out that these are NOT UK soliders in the UK Soldier link. They are American uniforms...

What is your point in posting these links, I would dearly love to know. Do you think we agree with what is happening on these videos? Or is it an attempt to stir up hatred on this website now.

The first post proved to be not controversial enough for you, so you decided to spark another argument here? You show very poor judgement...

Thank you for clearing up the orginal "Fox news report". I should know better, and take what the news media reports with a grain of salt.

As far as that horribly disgusting video of the American soldier, I truly hope people realise that not all American people are like this or condone this type of behavior. That soldier should have been brought up on charges. What a cruel and mean person.

actually i think what Laila did is all right..The police event is all about that movies because..
