America is an illegal and racist country much like Israel

Fallout 3 looks very interesting.

You can get a brand new copy for $20 USD, which I did at the local Best Buy. I think you'll probably love the political background of the story. America got nuked by China and now it's a desolate wasteland where you have to survive, choosing to help people or take advantage of them.

I think that might well be my next purchase. But I do hope that you are not suggesting that I would like America to be obliterated by nuclear weapons. That couldn't be the furthest thing from my mind. I might be critical of how the country was founded and have a severe distaste for how the country is governed, but I sure wish for no harm to any of the general population.

When you have people like Bilbo saying that I hate Israel and Lyle saying that I hate America, I really think that is a small minded way of approaching very serious issues. When people do bad things you have to point it out. It doesn't neccessarily mean I hate a country, but it certainly means that the leaders are commiting atrocities and need to ammend their ways. The general population should not aquiesce in support of such policies and to call those who criticise as 'haters' is simply a tool of avoidance.

It's because the ONLY bad things you ever point out are sins committed by Israel and America!

You might say 'down the pub I talk about other stuff' but on this board you only choose to discuss the political sins of these two countries, so clearly they are the people who get your blood boiling, not China, North Korea, Iran etc.

When it comes to boxing talk as well your main interest of discussion is Amir Khan and after every fight you will seek a negative angle to take regarding his victory.

You clearly have agendas and personal biases.

I'm not saying I or others don't by the way. We all have 'subject fingerprints' so to speak, thread topics we are more likely to post in, people or nations we are more likely to discuss.

For example I readily admit I am a bit of a religious nut, a passionate supporter of the Jews, a believer in creationism and mocker evolution and atheistic humanism, in addition to being something of a sleaze with a fascination for pornography, dubious sexual practices and vulgarity.

An analysis of my posts over the years would support this.

You could take any main poster here and build a character profile on them based on their posts over a period of time, and no doubt Youngblood is an expert on this very matter and has written a thesis on this a couple of years ago.

Anyway, I've paused the new Predators film to respond in this thread and I want to get back to it. Blindingly good movie by the way!
