Yet hear you are, pontificating about US history to an American who happens to have an education in American History as well as American political
affairs.
I like how you obfuscated my response though, and instead attacked the poster instead if providing your sources and links that show the 17th was a
Canadian unit. Get back to me on that one.

You're so wrong that it's not even funny, and it's because you have an inherent textbook attitude towards reality. It doesn't matter what the
discussion is about, textbook types always present their predictable views and act as if they are infallible because they are speaking for the
establishment ...snipped for response
And yet again, you attack the poster and not the info. If I am so wrong, then by all emans, school me and post your info.

Some valid points, however those examples dont justify the responses you and others have made / given.

Viewing the world through your eyes is unique to you, just as my view is unique to me. I admire the fact you have taken action to advance yourself to
the point of wanting to help others in the same situation. However, again, blaming the US for everything is just unrealistic in addition to confusing
the actual problem, which detracts from possible solutions.

So its ok for you to just sterotype and label people you feel are inferior to you as stupid? For a person who makes moral arguments, this statement
undermines your entire base. Applying your moral standards to others is exactly what you complain about the US doing. Why is it unacceptible unless
its you doing it? If I missed your point here, clarify for me please.

conspiracies in everything, which is what I see in your posts. No hope, lost cause, nothing changes, etc etc etc while pointing fingers. Just remember
when you point a finger, you have 3 more pointing directly back at you. The goal would be to find common ground with people who share the ultimate end
goal and wok together instead of nitpicking the smaller issues that distract from the real ones?

about my new understanding that has risen me above the veil of ignorance.
While firmly solidifing your arrogance and condescension in the process. Your journey through life is yours and during that journey you will find
people whitht ehsame mindset, and those who dont share the same mindset. When you single out the ones who dont have your mindset, you are doing to
them what you accuse the government of doing to you.
If the governments behavior is so evil, why is it ok for you to use the same tactic?

Not at all. I think you are a stongly motivated person with a lot of passion and a defined sense of morals in terms of what is right and what is
wrong. The problem though is the world is rarely, if ever, black and white simple nor is it seen by the billions through your, or my, eyes.
To drive my point home, this thread is about Libya and the burial of Ghadaffi, and yet you managed to bring it around to America bashing.
