America is an illegal and racist country much like Israel
I thought I would start this thread after posting a bit on my RDR thread. Basically I believe America to be an illegal state and Israel to be a state that is being newly created with the same racist motivations. Both are being founded on racist and illegitimate lines. Here are my main lines from the previosuly mentioned thread...
They wipe out those who already occupy the land and then show a complete lack of regard for the land they are taking over and then a complete lack of regard for the land they occupy the world over. It makes Americans look like the most uncivilised of people and native American Indians who lack all the bullshit science, but know full well how the earth operates, look like the most sophisticated of people. And that is quite accurate.
It's a shame the ugly was allowed to win.
And then I said this...
The game also made me upset because it brought home exactly how Israel is gradually taking over the occupied territories. You have an ethnic population who really own the land, and yet they don't because of illegal occupiers, and over time you will exclude the ethnic population, either into the sea or else anywhere else entirely.
Only America (a country responsible for genocide worse than the Nazi's) could be so close in kinship towards such a country. And then when you begin to educate yourself on notions such as 'manifest destiny', well, then it all begins to make complete sense.
It is an alignment of the corrupt academic elite, mass media and politicians who perpetuate all that is wrong in the world just for their short term gains.
Israel is making it's share of money from terror and is quite happy with the Palestine situation. And the world really does just invest in that and watch on while the Palestinians get crushed.

Now some of that is quite strong, but that is why I thought it deserved a proper thread of its own.
I was talking about a game, but my arguments relate quite well to a debate on state and abuse of power.
So discuss....
Re: America is an illegal and racist country much like Israel
What we did to the native Americans was shit but how come you dwell so much on America all the time? What about the British empire destroying whole cultures and shooting people off of the front of cannons in India? There is soooo much bad history and bad stuff going on now but you act as if America and Israel are the worst of the world's evils. I don't believe this even if we share a lot of the blame. Why not spend some time railing against radical terrorists from time to time.
Also when you say we're a racist country, what do you mean by that? Are you talking about our history or who we are now?
Re: America is an illegal and racist country much like Israel
I dwell on America becuase you are creating most of the worlds misery. Right now America and Israel are responsibly for much of the world's misery. If I was around 80 years ago my motives would obviously have been different. The British would have been my targets. In fact even now they are.
You talk of 'radical terrorists'..spoken like a truly uninformed American...what radical terrorists, Amat? The ones created by years of systematic abuse? Both economic and military? How many did you kill in Iraq and for what purpose exactly? Opening a Burger King in the Green Zone? Nice! Then there is Afghanistan and what about the economic invasions in countries such as Argentina, Uruguay, Poland, China, Russia and so on.
A racist country created on unhinged christian foundations. An idea that you are superior to the dark skinned people. That was how America was founded and this is how Israel is going. Take some land and take some more, because "we are able to do so". That is racist. Nobody wants to help the dark skinned people even though it is their own land.
That is a country built on racism and that is how Israel is being built today.

I am quite grown up, Lyle. Your response shows you for what you are.
How about raising some thoughts to prove me otherwise? But no you just have to tell me to fuck off.
Lyle, you lose the argument and look like a dick...well done...:rolleyes:
Re: America is an illegal and racist country much like Israel
And I see Lyle trying to respond, but he isn't worth it. My points are very potent and I will argue them until the cows go home. Lyle is a cowboy, he knows what his country is.
Re: America is an illegal and racist country much like Israel
Do you have to check out a bunch of books on how Britain fucked large portions of the world in the ass for centuries or is there just one called Britain fucked us in the ass and took everything we had?
Re: America is an illegal and racist country much like Israel
fwiw it is a criminally under discussed issue in America (don't want to sound like I'm blaming Black people for this but the civil rights issue was such a big deal that I think its overshadowed the Native American situation which is unfortunate) but Miles' hypocrisy seems to know no bounds.
Re: America is an illegal and racist country much like Israel
Oh this should go well. Brother Miles you need a big froathing glass of get-the-fuck over yourself. With respect... of course ;D
Re: America is an illegal and racist country much like Israel
I Hogtied a Nun, dragged her to a railway track and let it squish her...
I got an achievement for it too! Got charged with kidknapping but nobody was bothered enough to even round up a posse to come after me!
I tortured and killed a nun and didn't even get a slapped wrist.
Evil, evil country... women are treated like 2nd class citizens. makes me sick!

"Citizens", Hell mate at that time those women couldn't even vote!...I don't even know how you can stomach playing those vile, capitalist, empirialist video games! Shame on you! Shame on all of you!...I'm going to go play Ecco The Dolphin, because that's what Al Gore would want me to do, dolphins are smart and we should respect them.
(hopefully miles can pick up on the sarcasm of my post....I laid it on kind of thick and since he had such a hard time distinguishing between video games and reality I figured he may have trouble with sincerity and sarcasm too)

Agreed 100%.
It's the same thing here. I admittedly only really know about the plight of Canadian First Nations people (our 'Native Canadians'), how is contemporary life for Native Americans?
Here in the north the destruction of indigenous ways of life was stated public policy (under the guise of 'assimilation') for decades and we continue to exert colonial rule over them and force them to live in 3rd world conditions...
I've heard experts on the subject make compelling arguments that Canada is at least half a century behind the States in terms of how we treat our indigenous people.
