All you have managed to prove is that screen caps don't make your case when you were mistaken from the beginning.

How is saying allies should help allies so awful? Does anyone besides Suki think this is such an offensive notion?
Like I explained in the thread from which I took the screen caps, the end does not justify the means. If you believe it was right for the US to do what they did because they were helping their allies then you'll have to agree that it'd be right for other Islamic countries to attack the US, because they bear a duty to their allies in times of conflict, and the US is a common enemy to all of them. Now, I would not approve of any other country declaring war to the US because of what they did to the Iraqui people, the same way I believe they US made the wrong call by getting in a war they could have stayed out of. That's the point I was trying to make and it's pretty obvious to me. That's why I fail to understand how you can just say it was their duty to help them though violent means, even if this seemed to be the only way to end a world war.


everything is relative and contradictory ~
