05.02.11 | The death was symbolic more than anything. He represented everything we've been fighting for the last decade. Thousands of people could possibly still be alive if it wasn't for him. His death doesn't mean the end of the war (even though it should) but it's still justice served. |

05.02.11 | and @Detriment i believe that if you are truly an American, you won't feel bad about this at all. The only thing i regret is that he wasn't taken alive so we could question and torture him first (no trial of course). If someone hits you, then you need to hit them back. It's the law of the land, and Osama hit us pretty hard back in the day. |

05.02.11 | I'm not brainwashed. I'm just taking the side of the country that I live in. and @YetAnotherBrick it solves the fact that you will not be walked on. These terrorists made the first move by attacking our buildings. Sure, there's been turmoil in the middle east since Eisenhower when the US staged the coup in Iran, but this is all at the US's benefit. If they are unhappy, sure, they can attack us, but they had better be ready for retaliation. At this point, if the US doesn't hit back then the Middle East will simply stage attack after attack on the US because, frankly, they honestly believe that the roots of all of their problems lie within the American way of life because they are brainwashed. I'm sure their extremist religious beliefs don't really help the situation either. |

05.02.11 | thestefan, al qaeda can't "step down from power" and people can't rebel against them because they aren't in government you fucking idiot. and this isn't some blanket war against "the middle east". i mean do you actually view that entire, vaguely defined region as some hornets nest that wants to bomb all of us. read a book, it won't hurt
anyway i don't think anyone's shedding tears over his death, its just not worth flag waving and bro-ing it up out on the streets because your irrelevant cartoon villain died. unless you actually suffered directly because of him; then that would be more understandable. its accepted that the operational significance is low.
"cool story. did you know the U.S. government is responsible for the deaths of Osama's people?"
okay how about you stop equating bin laden and al qaeda as the face of disgruntlement in the arab world. they're pretty much equally reviled by most citizens there and have killed more muslims than non-muslims. bin laden's actions weren't spurred out of some noble need to defend the lives of his people either. the guy wasn't a robin hood figure, he was just another extremist fuck. also, lets save the bleeding heart, murder rhetoric for someone more deserving. this was the kind of world he lived in.
anyway the point i take from this is that bin laden was the guy the US govt used as part justification for their decision to respond to 9/11 by waging war in countries that had nothing to do with the attacks, resulting in the deaths of thousands more civilians and soldiers than those that died that day, stoking up even more anti-american sentiment and actually strengthening al qaeda in iraq. bin laden was a figurehead, there'll be plenty more. so i guess they got their little revenge lust trinket at least. i think it will leave a lot of people feeling indifferent though. |

qwe3
05.03.11 | "since bombing innocent people in Japan ended the war, its ok that we did it, right?"
here's why you're an idiot
1) most obviously the bombings of hiroshima and nagasaki happened during a WAR. both the USA and Japan declared war on each other and understood the possible ramifications of war (like say, massive casualties on both sides). death was expected.
2) it was a TOTAL war, like WWI, meaning it wasn't just involving armies. it affected every facet of each of the countries involved. civilians, cities, towns, schools, factories, trade routes were all targets, not just military institutions/people. it was about weakening the enemy in every way possible. japan bombed civilians in pearl harbour, darwin, singapore, nanking (they did much worse than just bombing in nanking too), beijing, nomonhan you name it. it's obvious they were fighting from a total war stance.
3) these were the Japanese. they didn't just surrender. they considered that the ultimate failure. they killed themselves rather than facing capture. they're not the kind of people who would just stop fighting. eradicating two cities in such horrible ways was decided by Truman as the only way the war could be stopped.
4) when the US gave japan a warning that if they didn't surrender they'd be bombed atomically (potsdam declaration), they got an extremely ambiguous and potentially aggressive response: "mokusatsu" which can be translated as "to treat with silent contempt" or as "to ignore" or as an experience of embarrassment brought on by not understanding something. the US considered it as a rejection of the potsdam declaration.
was it a horrible thing to do? yes.
are lots of horrible things done in war? yes.
did it end the war? yes.
if youre saying that bombing hiroshima is the same as 9/11 you should probably never touch a keyboard again. |

05.03.11 | As I said in the other thready list thing, it's very strange to see this almost anti-American sentiment from (I assume) Americans. When I turn on the news I see people celebrating with American flags in the streets, which you can understand because Osama had become the face of Al-Qaeda and terrorism and had been elusive for so long. One of the world's most wanted fugitives has been killed. People see this as a huge victory for that whole situation in the East.
I understand people not wanting people to die, being against retribution/an eye for an eye but I can't understand why someone from America (or the Western world really) would even come close to sympathising with the guy who by his own admission pulled the strings on 9/11. |

Keyblade
05.03.11 | "its not anti-american sentiment"
Yeah, and it definitely isn't terrorist-sympathizing. Isn't that going a bit overboard with your characterization? |
Chrisjon89
05.03.11 | Grab the full quote fellas. I said "almost anti-American" and "come close to sympathizing" for that reason exactly. I'd stand by both those comments - I might just be reading trolling comments, but I never nailed my colours to the mast anyway really. I find all the reactions very interesting. |

Chrisjon89
05.03.11 | "the problem is that the majority of users here know even less about politics and world issues than they do about music"
Very very true but obviously people are gonna wanna talk about an issue this big regardless of what they know. I've seen alot of cringeworthy shit since the story broke but still fascinating to me.
And it basically is patriotism ^ which is fine and commendable to me. Pride in where you're from and all that, but it's also important to sometimes be able to stand back and see things in perspective. I don't think this is one of those times - I understand why people would be happy about this. |

05.03.11 | No one really knows if what the CIA claims to have happened really did happen. I mean it's the CIA...who knows what actually happened. But I agree with you. I think the glorification and celebration of his death isn't right and it's not solving anything, rather it's probably going to fuel his supporters. |

just the other week i heard on the radio the latest wikileaks files about interrogations from after 9/11. al-qaeda claimed they had nuclear weapons hidden in britain, and that if osama was ever captured or killed, that they would bring nuclear 'hellfire' or something. but then the presenter + reporter were like 'well i dont know if there is much chance of that happening now'...
im not sure if osamas death means anywhere near as much as it would have about 5 or 6 years ago though. |
musicConsumer
05.03.11 | People who celebrate osamas death are dicks!
We're reckless, arrogant,
stupid dicks.
And the people who think he shouldn't have been killed
are pussies.
And osama is an asshole.
Pussies don't like dicks,
because pussies get fucked by dicks.
But dicks also fuck assholes,
assholes who just wanna shit
on everything.
Pussies may think they can deal
with assholes their way.
but the only thing
that can fuck an asshole
is a dick with some balls.
The problem with dicks
is that sometimes they fuck too much.
- Or fuck when it isn't appropriate.
And it takes a pussy
to show them that.
But sometimes pussies
get so full of shit
that they become assholes
themselves.
Because pussies are only an
inch and a half away from assholes.
I don't know much

let us fuck this asshole...

05.03.11 | "yeah the most powerful nation ever to exist should be fucking afraid of a disorganized militia "
I agree with this in some respects but being the most powerful nation doesn't mean shit if a sleeper cell that's been based in the us of a for the last 5+ years decided to go active when news of Osama's death broke. The military might of a country isn't going to be enough to stop a few american based terrorists from walking into a crowded shopping mall and blowing themselves up |

05.03.11 | "The military might of a country isn't going to be enough to stop a few american based terrorists from walking into a crowded shopping mall and blowing themselves up"

Yeah, but they did 10 years ago as well. And yet a few guys with box cutters still staged one of the biggest terrorist acts in the history of the world |
liledman
05.03.11 | yeah except 9/11 haunts everybody, and thats pretty small-time in a war scenario. anything close to that kind of thing would send them crazy again. |
qwe3
05.03.11 | "Yeah, but they did 10 years ago as well. And yet a few guys with box cutters still staged one of the biggest terrorist acts in the history of the world"
it was bad, but it didn't do much economically and it wasn't that many fatalities compared to the US' population. |
Deviant.
05.03.11 | Yeah, but if intelligence was to come out that another one of these was in the works I'd say a cause for concern would be justified. Granted it would be probably be on a much smaller scale what with all this awareness, but even if it was only half effective i'd still say that:
"yeah the most powerful nation ever to exist should be fucking afraid of a disorganized militia"
would be proven wrong if something like that was to occur |
qwe3
05.03.11 | it doesn't scare America. |
porch
05.03.11 | lots of countries face some kind of terrorist threat but the US has more capability to defend against it than most so its not worth stressing over too much. and yeah 9/11 was a horrible event but the response to it was ridiculously out of proportion and makes it look small in comparison |
Chrisjon89
05.03.11 | "just the other week i heard on the radio the latest wikileaks files about interrogations from after 9/11. al-qaeda claimed they had nuclear weapons hidden in britain, and that if osama was ever captured or killed, that they would bring nuclear 'hellfire' or something."
I heard this too - hidden somewhere in Europe. There's no need for paranoia I don't think but certainly people in power need to be alert in general. Disorganised militia, maybe, but they're extremists who consider their former leader a martyr now, and that's something these guys aspire to.
Who would want to be a world leader? Honestly, it'd be fucking horrible with all the shit that goes on. |

Unless you think they are planning some MASSIVE, "go-big-or-go-home", be all end all of terrorist attacks...which doesn't seem likely. More than likely, they've had his replacement as the head of the organization planned out for years and this "decapitation" of the Al-Queda snake will be nothing more than dust in the wind (sorry to reference Kansas.). Life will continue on, even for the other terrorists, now that Osama is dead. |

Yeah, the problems started when shit went down. Especially since he survived several assassination attempts which kinda made him even more arrogant than he already was. And he pretty much was a strategical asshat which brought him doubts with his military commands.

"1) most obviously the bombings of hiroshima and nagasaki happened during a WAR. both the USA and Japan declared war on each other and understood the possible ramifications of war (like say, massive casualties on both sides). death was expected.
2) it was a TOTAL war, like WWI, meaning it wasn't just involving armies. it affected every facet of each of the countries involved. civilians, cities, towns, schools, factories, trade routes were all targets, not just military institutions/people. it was about weakening the enemy in every way possible. japan bombed civilians in pearl harbour, darwin, singapore, nanking (they did much worse than just bombing in nanking too), beijing, nomonhan you name it. it's obvious they were fighting from a total war stance.
3) these were the Japanese. they didn't just surrender. they considered that the ultimate failure. they killed themselves rather than facing capture. they're not the kind of people who would just stop fighting. eradicating two cities in such horrible ways was decided by Truman as the only way the war could be stopped.
4) when the US gave japan a warning that if they didn't surrender they'd be bombed atomically (potsdam declaration), they got an extremely ambiguous and potentially aggressive response: "mokusatsu" which can be translated as "to treat with silent contempt" or as "to ignore" or as an experience of embarrassment brought on by not understanding something. the US considered it as a rejection of the potsdam declaration.
was it a horrible thing to do? yes.
are lots of horrible things done in war? yes.
did it end the war? yes.
if youre saying that bombing hiroshima is the same as 9/11 you should probably never touch a keyboard again"

This is an English documentary series, which examines in great detail the rise of capitalism, globalisation and the global financial meltdown. This episode, from about 44.00 looks at China, and the aid they gave to the US. It makes them seem somewhat more than just 'in the right place at the right time' and far from the weakling nation they're made out to be in this thread. Interesting stuff, even if the details of the economics made my head swirl.

Hootenanny is an Appalachian colloquialism that was used in early twentieth century America to refer to things whos names were forgotten. In this usage it was synonymous with thingamajig or whatchamacallit, as in "hand me that hootenanny." Hootenanny was also an old country word for "party". Now, most commonly, it refers to a folk-music party.

05.04.11 | its well understood you must include the words 'cathartic' and 'juxtapose' at least once in every review
^ I just juxaposed my taint remnants and the highly fertile contents of my nutsack all over your mothers face. It was a catharsis. Like that? |

05.04.11 | "oh hey whats this, porch already made a useless post calling somebody else out who had made a completely valid post that made a lot of sense just because he hopes that his over-exposed douchebaggery will help his image as the "Sputnik Asshole" become even MORE apparent. if you disagree with him, don't actually say it, because he'll just come back with another useless prick-ish comment."
porch doesn't need your approval dude fuck right off. detriment ignored my entire post by calling me a douchebag then told me to grow up, most likely due to the fact that he has no substantial argument. ad hominems are the mainstay of the intellectually soft |

05.08.11 | "im not going to have an argument with a douchebag. why would i continue to argue with a narrow-minded fool? when you start acting like a big boy, we can talk."
cmon man thats 3 ad hominems in one post and what wasn't a disgusting slander was mindless babble about the ethics of arguments or whatever.
pretty much heres what happened: you said something dumb, then I called you dumb, then i explained why. you probably didn't even read what i wrote, choosing instead to whine about people not treating you with respect or whatever. now you look like a joke.
yay |
