And this is a whole different issue....saying that killing is wrong doesn't justify the Professional Killing of peoplöe (Professional Killing being Death Penalty as well as War)

Because not the Middle East sells the but some People From The Middle East......and the U.S.A. did not declare war for drugs.....
Bush declared war on terrorism which though to Spellammer personaly is not as important as getting rid of drugs, it will indirectly bring them down to near zero because most drugs come from overseas. IE: The Middle-East.

And? They sell a product that ruins lives, makes people become slaves to a substance, and can break apart families, and leave children victimized the most..What's suprising is how you defend these people. Are you the devil or something?
Yes, that's right. They're the Devil. Because everything can be simplified to a matter of good and evil. Everything is black and white. People might argue that you don't acknowledge the ambiguities and complexities of social issues such as this, but why do that when you can put everything into superstitious categories of "Left" and "Right"? That way, whenever you encounter someone with a point of view you don't agree with, you can just call them names such as "Leftist" and dismiss their argument, regardless of its validity. Who wants to have to scrutinise everything anyway? Who wants to think for themselves when our television and politicians do that for us? It requires less mental effort to defend people instead of principles. If it's adored with nationalistic imagery, it must be righteous.
You have been conditioned by your culture to blindly accept whatever your government decides to do. Anything that might generate dissent is scandolised by Fox News and the like so that any anti-Republicanism--or as they call it, anti-Americanism--is supressed with threats of marginalisation by society. Nobody wants to be on their own in a point of view. It's easier to go with the crowd and be just another mindless cheerleader than to actually question the justice of your own countries actions.

People think ancients were primitive and stupid, but they really weren't. They just explained things differantly for a differant time..
