I thought the FBI fucked Americans and the CIA fucked non-Americans?

They are obviously sub-humans.

It is kind of an inside joke for me. Whenever I randomly decide to jokingly discriminate against a group it is always redheads and lefties.

I always hit lefties when I pitched for baseball and I don't know why I picked redheads...

I reckon you're limiting your options by leaving out redheads. you might think about reconsidering one day.

Yeah, Bruce, they're just an elite specialized highly-trained squad who are there to take the fight to the bad guys, of course! They are in NO way a 'death squad!'

*snort*

Which to the George Jr administration (especially Pres. Cheney) means most of the world (including American allies) are evil.

No wonder this administration must wiretap anyone without judicial review - even when a secret court was established to maintain security. So who is the enemy - the evil one? We (collectively) are. We have met the enemy and he is us. How many remember evil created by "The Best and the Brightest" ... or remember enough of history to appreciate the meaning behind those various expressions.

How many reacted to the phrase 'big dic' in emotional terms - or instead recognized the 'evil' behind such mentalities?

Gen Curtis LeMay feared containment; advocated pre-emption. He decided the US and USSR would go nuclear anyway. Therefore America should unilaterally attack ('Pearl Harbor') the USSR before that war started. Gen Curtis LeMay was a good guy. Right? Yes, according to reasoning by TheMercenary who somehow automatically knows who the good guys are. One need only return to reasons presented many years ago by MaggieL to attack Iraq. Again, she *knew* who were the good guys meaning a unilateral attack ('Pearl Harboring') of Iraq was completely justified.

One way to identify the 'evil' ones? They view the world in simplistic (and extremist) terms of 'good and evil'.

What does a 'real' good guy know?

I get very suspicious when there is a clear cut good versus evil.
So why does TheMercenary automatically assume these are not 'death squads'? He does not even reply with a sophomoric insult. Demonstrated is a symptom of extremism where even our overt (France, Turkey, etc) and covert (Syria) allies get accused of 'evil'.

Trying to know by learning 'why' is just tooooo hard. Easier is when Rush Limbaugh tells us who is good and who is evil. Hitler's Brown Shirts also knew using same logic.

Those who ask embarrassing 'why' questions such as "what is the strategic objective?" or "when do we go after bin Laden?" .... must be evil.

Tw's working assumption here seems to be that all anti-Americans are, by virtue of this, highly intelligent. Just like him!

Here is encapsulated tw's habit of playing the snake in Eden. It is illustrative of his want of something essential -- penetration? perspicuity? people skills? -- that he doesn't know we can see him doing it. The evil ones will tell you, straight faced and expecting to be credited, that there is no good and evil. And they'll insist on repeating it, believing apparently that value, or credibility, will go with repetition. That this belief is pathological remains unknown, unconceived -- to them.

What is an anti-American?

It seems the anti-Americans are the ones the most symbolize the Americans during the revolutionary war. They are rebellious, don’t like the current regime, and are looking for a better way to live. Basically the biggest difference is the "anti-Americans" of today aren't doing it for capitalism.
