Does that make clear where I stand in all this stuff?


NO, first you equated getting mad over 911 with hating all Arabs or all Muslims. Another strawman dodge. I didn't ask you why you weren't angry at all Muslims or all Arabs. I't not angry at all Muslims either. Hell, I'm supportive of what we're doing for the majority of the Afghans and Iraqis.

The issue I asked you to consider is why you're not angry over 911 (and you said you weren't) yet you are outraged over a handful of wrongdoings by American soldiers (which were punished by our own military)?

You might look at why theres a difference in your feelings over these things.

extreme crimes as the sole responsibility of the perpetrators. <?i>

But you never said you were angry at the perpetrators of 911. In fact, you said you weren't angry over 911 at all. Implying you're not even mad at the perpetrators. Again why not, when you are angry at the handful of American perpetrators of crimes and all who support the cause they are fighting in.

I think anger accomplishes very little. Sure I get angry but I don't strike back when I am angry.

But you get angry over wrongdoings by American soldiers. And you verbally strike out at people who disagree with you over the war as if those who take the opposing position to yours are the perpetrators of those wrongdoings.

So here you're claiming something about yourself that is obviously not true. Obviously you don't understand yourself very well.

You get angry over some things - crimes by American soldiers - but not at others - the 911 attack on America. And you can't explain why.

And though you claim to only blame the actual perpetrators of wrong doings, you do get angry at more than just the perpetrators of the things that anger you - you are angry at supporters of the war over crimes by individual soldiers even though supporters of the war aren't the perpetrators.
