The fact that you go to sleep at night worried that Bin Laden is going to fire an intercontinental ballistic nuclear missile at Canada proves my point that you should seriously cut back on the television. I'm not trying to be hostile, just offering friendly advice. It's the great tragedy of our time that so many intelligent people are slaves to what they see as mainstream thought, as projected by television personalities.

I thought I remembered reading it in a translation of one of Bin Laden's taped messages. I have to admit, however, that after a quick websearch I am unable to find any other reference. So perhaps in this case it was a bit of fluff I picked up somewhere. The heart of the matter is the same, none the less. How do you suppose Bin Laden views Canadian troops attacking Taliban in Afghanistan?

I sleep fine at night. If you use that big ol' brain you claim to have and carefully read my post again, you'll notice I don't suggest that Bin Laden is about to lob ICBMs at Canada. I was just refuting the following statement:

"to make a simple for you, we do not need a gun, cause we are not cowboys shooting indians"

How do you suppose Bin Laden likely views Canada's participation in Afghanistan? You don't think there's any chance he would have considered that action a little "cowboy"?

Anybody who disagrees with you is immediately stupid in your eyes. See things a little differently? Must be brain washed by television!

Let's set the record straight here. You don't have any inside sources in to the Middle East. You're not publishing insiteful academic papers on political sciences. You're just another pornographer on GFY. Climb down off that pedestal, you look foolish up there.

Actually that's not true at all, and I've never told anyone to listen to my point of view. People who repeat nonsense like it's some sort of fact are brainwashed by television, as you did in this thread. It's has nothing to do with differing world views, it has to do with you being misinformed, and you trying to spread that ignorance to others.

Maybe you should take more time to read these books, one every two days, I don't think they're sinking in. Coloring books don't count.

Just to set the record straight, I don't believe Canada needs to or should participate in this failed missile shield project. Canada may not have any large scale enemies at present but to suggest we're just the rainbow and sunshine of the World, universally loved by all without a detracter anywhere seems kind of foolish.

So it's your contention that it's absolutely not possible that Bin Laden could harbour some ill will towards Canada over our foreign policy, specifically Afghanistan? It's outright impossible?

I suspect most of what you've said to date has been based on similar "fluff". This is the kind of thing that wouldn't happened if you stop watching television, hence my advice, which you so rudely dismissed. This "fluff" is what educated people call misinformation, and it's what nearly everyone in this "TV generation" bases their world view on.

Do I think Bin Laden is going to declare Jihad against Canada because of our role in Afghanistan? No. Even if he did, do I think he's a real threat to us? No. Even if he were a threat to us, would this have anything to do with strategic missile defense? No.

Now I'm going to climb in to my bed with a copy of Guns & Ammunition monthly while drifting off to the soothing sounds of CNN. Maybe tomorrow I can catch up on the Nascar scene. Yee Haw and good night.

Bin Laden can harbour my ass for all I care, he is not a threat to us.

That's a good move.

It is not my contention that Canada needs to participate in strategic missile defense at all. I was simply answering one specific comment.

And no, I don't think Canada is innocent. In fact I think most Canadians are hypocrites for judging Americans who turn a blind eye to Bush's policy in the middle east, all the while turning a blind eye to our own involvement in the destruction of democracy in Haiti.

...with misinformation. Which is why I made my comment about TV.

Ok, start making things up because you look stupid for trying to feed people your ignorance.

Talk about preemption, I preemptively defeated your ability to delete your lame post.
