US creates illegal wars, they are the ones who need a wake up call ...
What a terribly ignorant thing to say. You clearly show your lack of IQ fool.

Easy to say when the chances of your being one of them are about one in a hundred thousand.

I'm in the same boat as you. I really, really, really hope that I am just being overly paranoid and they are the real deal... it's just so hard to judge these days.

So, you're basing your theory of the US supporting suicide bombers on that one source? Some SAS guys got rolled up with weapons, explosives and remote detention devices? That's pretty freakin' weak.

Illegal weapons: Seeking search of US embassy, he said the day Blackwater had stepped into Pakistan, terror acts and suicide attacks had been scaled up. The counsel also alleged that in the US embassy illegal arms and ammunition were being stored, which were being used for “sabotage acts” in the country.
The first large-scale resistance operation was launched against the Americans in al-Fallujah in spring 2004, a year after the country’s occupation. The entire village, located 100 kilometers away from Baghdad, rebelled, though the Americans believed they had won totally.
The Americans had to retreat from the village. They started bombarding al-Fallujah with depleted uranium missiles, launched a gas attack, burned women and children alive – I saw the pictures; they are on the web as well.
Even women fought together with men. It’s very rare in the Islam world – women take up arms only in extreme situations.
There was growing international discontent over the cruelty of the Americans. That’s when the Americans declared that it was not Iraqi guerrillas, but the sinister Al-Qaeda fighting against them in al-Fallujah. To be more exact, its Iraqi cell.

Assange is a money grabbing attention whore, and if he really had the best interests of the people of the world at mind he would have released the documents immediately instead of whoring them out for the most attention and publicity he could receive thus lining his pockets under the guise of server fees and advertising expenses...

One was an alleged car bomb attack on a procession of vehicles in Palestine which officially carried a reported amount of explosive. However, the reporter highlighted glaring discrepancies with the account that questioned the size of the crater left in the roadway plus the fact that underground pipes were bent upwards instead of down. This suggested a missile attack that penetrated the ground first rather than an above ground explosion especially as the amount of explosive reported could hardly have created the size of the crater.

The jury might still be out but the westerners running the wars in the Middle East have already proven that they're willing to commit any atrocity to further their agenda. Why are you so keen to defend them?

Dude, I saw a video on Youtube of a Stryker bouncing off the road like a freakin' dolphin, then flipping over after it ran over an IED. The crater was huge. Size of the crater doesn't mean missile attack, it just shows there was a lot of explosives in that hole.

That has what to do with Iraq, A-stan or the US?
And the civilians murdered by insurgents? Guess that they don't have an agenda?

I've never heard of a car bomb being placed underground but I agree with you that a crater doesn't necessarily mean missile strike.

.... I suspect that a lot of the atrocities that get blamed on locals in IraqAfPakistan are probably the work of the same special forces folk who perform midnight raids on sleeping "insurgents" shooting them as they jump out of bed then try to cover up their crimes by digging bullets out of dead, pregnant women.
Originally posted by JohnJasper
But seriously, my whole point is that those civilians may not have been murdered by insurgents but by special forces/mercenary hit squads or for that matter regular soldiers either acting independently or under orders. As it's all covered up by the military propaganda machine, how would anyone know differently? Only when something LEAKS out!
