U.S. vs. Russia: Who Has The Moral HIgh Ground?
A reporter from Fairness and Accuracy In Reporting takes the New York Times to task for its rebuff of Donald Trump admitting the U.S. kills people, too:
“You got a lot of killers,” Trump told O’Reilly. “What, you think our country’s so innocent?”
I was surprised Trump said that, but I appreciate him doing so.
" A rough look at the actions in question since Putin has been in office reveals this outrage to be, at best, misplaced. One tally by Airwars, a Western nonprofit, puts the total number of Syrian civilians killed by Russia since it entered the war in September 2015 at just over 4,000, or 0.8–0.4 percent of the 500,000 to 1 million civilians who died due to George W. Bush’s unilateral invasion of Iraq in 2003. Add to this the thousands of other civilians killed in other theaters of the “War on Terror” under the Bush and Obama administrations, including Afghanistan, Libya and Syria itself, and the idea of pointing to respect for civilian lives as something that elevates the United States above Russia seems a little absurd."
We should look in the mirror before we point the finger at others.

Definately Russia.
America haslost its way.
Diversity ruined it all.
Yeah, right on! Diversity is ruining America! This country would be great if it weren't for the 36% of American citizens nationwide (or 60% of California citizens) we don't want in the country, right Henchman? What's your Final Solution?
*eye roll*
I agree, HOJ, forced diversity & invasions are ruining the country. The Lady Liberty stands for acceptance of those who want to be here, want to be Americans, because tbey love the concept of individual rights as much as most Americans still do. Unfortunately, thanks to abortion, there won't be many true Americans left by 2050. All the new people seem to hate the Constitution except when they think they can twist it in their favor.
Assaad has asked for our help to fight the terrorists escaping from his country into ours. He stipulated that we better not have ulterior motives. He trusts Putin, but not so much the past record of Neocons here. He mentioned that all anybody has to do is compare the pictures of machine gun toters with the pictures of new "refugees" on our shores to know that we are being invaded by terrorists. He can't offer a percentage, but confided that it only took a small group to do the damage previously done already. I see why his country loves him. He doesn't tattle but he doesn't appear to lie either. Our own politicians could use a semester with that man.
They say that out of the 160 arrested by Ice recently, 150 were wanted for felony offenses. Rape, assault, child molestation, and the usual.
America's culture doesn't allow the same behavior other cultures do. It's going to be a long learning curve for many.
With power in numbers, it is Americans that will be doing the acclimating. Unless, we start taking in more people who do truly want to be American. This is the hope of faster processing, stronger vetting. The enemy recognizes this last hope though & is going to great lengths to stop it from happening, as we know. May God have mercy on us all.
It's a shame you guys fear and demonize people you perceive to be different from you. There is no boogie man.
I'll gladly take my Latino and Muslim neighbors (I have both on my street) over the roving GMOBs (mostly white male adults cruising neighborhoods on on bikes, looking for open garages to steal from to pay for their meth addiction.)
I can at least say my Latino and Muslim neighbors share my values, values of seeking a peaceful, friendly, enriching lives. Turn off Fox and experience the world. It's not nearly as scary as you think.
Personally, traveling to a pure culture where peace is promoted is better diversity than the immigration for votes watered down version ofpilirical diversity.
Ya think native indians want more immigrants? Hell No, natives are disgusted by increasing immigrants.
B.S.6:00 am If Islam was made up of mostly what male adults on bikes you'd leave your garage open for them. BTY Mexicans hate Muslims, its a meth verces smack thing.
Don't want immigrants here because it increases national population totals.
Don't want immgrants here who don't denounce their former home.
Don't want immigrants here who were brainwashed by a foreign regime.
Simply, don't want more immigrants here......more people, more problems......more outside foreigners, much more problems.
HOJ is right, I await the libprog boycotts of all the Indian casinos.
It is a shame you find lying serves your purpose.
Point out where any comment on this thread admits fear......more like comments that expose American Frauds at the most basic human level.
Move to the middle east is a suggestion, but you'll probably fear that.
Encourage your foreign friends to fix their own country, stay home.
Obviously, your latino friends don't believe in peace building Mexico, they said, "fuck that shit, it is easier to hide as an illegal in Estados Unidos."
Says the person who will not step one foot into the latino or muslim household......all false talk for politics, no on the ground action.
Another dumbed down white person who know not what they support, but it sure feels good.
It amazes me how illegal vs legal is somehow racist.
It would be helpful if illegals stopped playing ridiculous racist cards and hardened criminal favoritism and instead united in harmony with faster & better processing legislators.
But, that's only what the good ones want. Raise your voices dearest good people. Let's get this done so you can be free from the tyrants who have overtaken your dreams & goals of becoming a legal citizen of a free country. We must unite!
