Hell, why not a tv-series? lol

Hey, man - that's hilarious! I can just picture the whole thing!
Ah, I see.... So you're a Brit living in the US! Don't know why, but I actually thought it was the other way around... Well then I certainly see your point.
The Pope is the chief architect behind a united Europe? Why, that devious ..... I never would have thought....! Under that frail exterior was an evil mastermind Well, I guess it's time to muster your Crusaders, Marvin. Let blood wash away our sins!
Why aren't you allowed to vote, Dharma?
Scary story... Second that, Gerry. Nobody could possibly buy that in real-life, eh?
Ah, never mind. I forgot that you never respond unless it's to flame somebody. Probably useless rhetoric...
Wives? Plural? No wonder your only about once every 10 days....
This is funny, yet tragic...
Whew, that was a long (but good) read! Draginol: I see that you use the word "ideologue" a lot lately. Seems you use it as a sort of swear-word. How do you define it?
Hehe, yeah, a big scary ol' mountain troll, eh? You're needed here, man!
Congratulations from a minuscule-hitter, Miki!
Yeah, sleep is the only salvation for me too. I think I may be able to control it by drinking a lot of water, eating right - that sort of thing. But I don't know... sometimes it just happens. If I stumble on a miracle cure, I'll share it here. If there is such a thing. Stay strong. Corio
Brilliant post, Jepel!
No, I DON'T understand. Feels like I've been placed among the opposition here, and I haven't even commented in the issue. All I did was commenting on a nicely put phrase. I honestly wasn't trying to ridicule you, so I don't understand the animosity. Oh well. Ok, I'll stop trolling now and go away. Feel free to delete my comments, as they're kinda out of place. And I hope you have a nice day (again, no sarcasm). Peace. Man,
yeah right and I'm a GI who's fighting for the Iraqi people's freedom. Hahahaha ??? I must be getting slow, care to explain the joke?
Miki: Sorry if you misread me, I wasn't being sarcastic there - really loved that phrase!
Good read! I found the reference to Philip Zimbardo particularily interesting. I think the most interesting (and terrifying) aspect of this is that it isn't about "good" or "bad" people. A lot of us could, in a given situation, be torturers. A common reaction in such instances as this is to alienate the actual perpetrators and sympathize with the victims, i.e the troops are defined as "bad" / the victims as "good". But people are influenced b
You're so used to admiring perfumed princes who fight from 30,000 feet lol. Good one. Made me laugh all day...
Oops, posted in the wrong article. Sorry 'bout that. Kudos for managing to insult me in three different ways in such a short response, though.
You're way off here, Brad. This has absolutely nothing to do with relativity. Why do you bring up China and Tibet? The Soviet Union? You can dig up any old regime that has committed war crimes and done worse things than the US, but it doesn't really matter. You try to make this incident look insignificant by making irrelevant comparisons. Ethically, this is despicable. End of story.
At long last, an unambiguous article about this subject. Well put, Greywar.
Psychx: Yes, my response was a little harsh, I was tired and angry. It wasn't directed at you as much, but yours was the last post I saw... I'm not blaming all americans for this, but I've seen a lot of people trivializing, defending and apologizing this incident. My post was a sort of summary of my feelings on this. I'm just sick of the whole thing. Thanks for pointing out the spelling error, tho
