What makes you think I want to live in the US??? By the way, I am not aware of a law in the US nor anywhere else, really, that says you have to pay taxes in a place to be able to have an opinion on its issues. If that were the case, actually, all you Americans shouting off your high horses about the Middle East would have to be very silent indeed... Besides, if you care to recall, the point I am making is about YOU and your apparent inability to form opinions on your own. You would look very funny if you are indeed trying to say I need to move to the US and pay taxes and vote to be able to point out to you that you have no opinion and are only blindly trusting what your administration tells you. You are refusing to acknowledge the fact that you tried to show US invasion of Iraq "legal", based on its "violations" of sanctions/agreements WITH THE UN (not the US), and I showed how your argument was flawed. To that, you had no answer. All you have been saying since then is "My government says it's legal, and they must know better than you", which, coming from a 10-year-old about his parents would be OK, even then not the greatest sign of a bright kid, but coming from an adult, it is very sad. And on that note, I am off. This exchange went on long enough and no further posts will probably make it any clearer.
