First thing, I am not a conservative nor liberal. I consider myself neither Democrat nor Republican. I consider myself independent. Second I too hate Bush. I think he lied to us and I think he is a bad president I never voted for him nor do I intend to. Has America made mistakes? Of course it has. I'm not saying that we are angels, all I'm trying to say is that there is no justication for murder. And I know I'm going to get you all ranting and raving at me, but murder is not the same as making war. Vietnam,Korea, and Iraq are wars(maybe not justified wars but wars none the less),The first attack on the twin towers was not war, 911 was not a war, the beheading of an innocent civilian is not war they were murder. I don't want to kill innocent people. I just want these murderers brought to justice. If these people had legitimate gripes they should have stated them. One of the great things about America is that we have the freedom of speech. They could have come here and made there gripes known. I at least would have listened but instead they choose to attack us. That is not the way to solve your problems volence is the last resort, not the first. That goes for the USA as well.
As for Iraq. Were Bushes reasons for going to war correct? no, he lied about the WMDs and the connection with terrorists. However, is Iraq better off without Saddam? I would have to beleive that the people of Iraq would have to say yes. I'm not saying that they are better off with the USA controlling their Country, But I just can't believe that they would actually want to live under Saddam's murderous cruel dictatorship. Does that justify our war to remove him? I don't know. But I think right now whether or not we were right in our invasion, we just can't eave Iraq untill it has a stable government otherwise we risk another Saddam or worst another Hitler.
As for why people hate the USA. That is a difficult question. I think its for different reasons. I think some think we are evil. Others just hate Capitalism and/or democracy. Others hate us because they think we hate them. Some of it has also has to do with religion. But I think one reason that is not often talked about is I think people hate us because its cool to hate us. They think by opposing the most powerful nation on the earth that , that somehow makes them brave and noble I believe alot of you fall into the last category. Its easy to think that such a powerful country is evil but that doesn't make it so. I'm sorry for being such an evil arrogant American but thats the way I am.

There. Without knowing, Jimbo gave us the answer. Arrogance. The feeling that the whole world is made of inferior minds who need to be controled with violence to worship them. Basically, these people took it too serious, and decided to do an "eye for an eye" revenge kind of thing. Of course they are NOT right, I do NOT support either sides, but they are messing with a country who shares the same belives. Not religious belives, but the belive that violence is the way. Again, I quote Ghandi: "An eye for an eye is going to make the whole world blind."

Come on, all the conservatives in this board! Why do the "evil doers" (as GWB insists in calling them) do what they do? Why? There must be a motivation, everything is done with a motivation, so tell me, what is their motivation for it? I'm waiting...

ok, let me go on a rant and try and follow me...
the Spice Mines of Kessel are located in something called the Maw Cluster. it is a cluster made up of several black holes. as we all know, black holes have an extremely great gravity pull. there is something around black holes calles The Schwarzschild Radius, also known as The Event Horizon. this EV is the limit from which light can escape. beyond the EV even light cannot escape. the futher you are away from a black hole, the lesser the gravity pull, meaning that you can travel at slower speeds to escape its gravity pull; but the closer you get to a black hole, the faster must you travel.
now, the closer you are to one of those black holes in the Maw Cluster, the shorter the distance to the Kessel, meaning you dont need to take de-tours. and you we know from what ive written above that the closer you get to one of those black holes, the faster you travel. this concludes that if the Millenium Falcon can do the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs, it means that it needs a shorter route through the Maw Cluster to get to Kessel, ie the MF travels very fast.
make any sense?

Oh yeah, I forgot. The conservatives and their "eye for an eye" politics. Gandhi once said "An eye for an eye will make the whole world blind".
