    absolutely.

    and Huntington? surprised anyone even refers to him these days ... ok ... maybe on here people will .... but most people are aware of that his thesis ignores the most imprtant elements contributing to the current issues in the middle east.

    We're neither good nor bad. No one is entirely.

    Can you articulate why "they" will cooperate with you? Can you tell me how you can induce cooperation from American conservatives who don't like you.

    If you agree with me I was obviously mistaken.

    They being constitutionalists, might venture to help others sporadically if they felt the American public sought such involvement.

    By making a logical and rational case for their support. The only reason to oppose would be if they find my case illogical or irrational. I find it amusing how you are littering comments about a need for neo-isolationism with the need to attack Iran, or do you not think such an attack is necessary?

    You will find no post of mine in which I say that America will or should attack Iran. I oppose further involvement in the ME. Do not make things up.

    Israel and Iran are going to war. The die is cast for them.

    "They" are not going to help you. But you should feel free to plead for help in establishing a new world based on a vision of Enlightenment. It will provide comic relief.

    You must realize that we are not beaten dogs who return to lick the hand of he who has beaten us.

    Good to hear. Sorry I wasn't making it up - you were just spewing the same tripe I get from the pro-war conservative lot on the rest of the website.

    I totally disagree.

    "Help me"? When was I arguing that?

    ...?... the founding fathers were comical to you? Sounds like you're not cut out for a better tomorrow.

    But you are. Hence you can reelect Nixon and Bush 2.

    Do you wonder why I don't like Australians? You have convinced me that they are hostile and unreliable as friends or allies. Thanks for the chat.

    No, but if I did I would think its because you dont like what we say - not that you can prove it wrong, just that you dont like it.

    In what sense?

    For an isolationist you are quite, in a sense, politically bipolar.

    I am quite surpruised the Australian public would support this deployment. Niether do I see the point. Australia does need a permanent US troop presence and the United States cannot afford it. Although, when the bush tax cuts are overturned we could.

    You evidently don't know your history or you are simply blinded by your hatred of anything that smacks of the Free (Western) world. You are probably very much at home in the company of the misogynist Jihad fanatics.

    There is not much free about American imperialism, which we are maintaining in our acceptance of their troops.

    LOL Of course, that is the explanation for all of us, right? :rolleyes:

    Incidentally I guess Ron Paul, an old Christian, married man, and the long time married Jewish (I think he's an atheist now, but he was a Jew) intellectual Noam Chomsky, to name two people who would agree with us, are "misogynist Jihad fanatics" also, right? ROFL

    as I said - you are under the wrong flag.

    regardless of your views on anything else - being a sycophant IS unaustralian.

    I might have voted for Ron Paul. Your embrace of him is akin to the kiss of death.

    I don't think the public do at all.

    Maybe Jules has let her crush on Obama get the better of her ... but it seems like Tony's a bit keen on him as well, cos he's all for it too.... in fact - he wants even more!

    No worries, happy to give it, although I would dispute the title of "professional". Some may call me a genius, but I refrain from that as I would your complement. ;)
    I dont feel a title should add or detract from one's opinion. I would hope you think the same.

    For an isolationist you seem very reluctant to pursue an isolationist politics.

    How so? Oh right because I speak a truth that is inconvenient to the mythology a good US citizen must embrace, right? Reminds me of Soviet propagandists. "But the party has but only good intentions and splendid achievements to show for us - anything else is a lie!"

    You don't like Americans. Your recommendation of Paul is not made with the best interests of Americans in mind. Any one who would be president should have the best interests of Americans in mind.
