Dec 16, 2011 - You do Know that before The wars in the middle east american companies already owned almost all of the oil there. By the rebel resistance you mean the Taliban? the Taliban are not freedom fighters the want everybody to be ruled by old and dangerous laws. I am all for people practicing there religious beliefs but not stoning someone to death.

Dec 16, 2011 - Sorry, but this needs a closed captioning. It would have been far better to have her speak in her native tongue and just provide an English translation in the captions.

LudicrousTachyon Says:

Dec 19, 2011 - Don't forget the survivors of "collateral murder". We create the situation where it's easiest for children of murdered parents to seek survival and desire vengence. Those brainwashers are most able to provide both those things.

ordnascrazy Says:

Jan 3, 2012 - (Esperanto) Tre interesa kaj grava prelego.Vere, kion ni okcidentanoj scias pri tiaj popoloj? Ni nur malmulte konas ilin kaj tiu malmulto devenas de la televidoj aŭ de la ĵurnaloj. Sed vidi rektokule kaj nur legi estas tre malsimilaj aferoj.La scio pri io ajn estas la plej grava afero, kiu povas liberigi la homojn.

VaeVictisAeternum Says:

Jan 13, 2012 - No, the farmers and workers are often the backbone and the main supporters of any religious extremists. When you first start to learn about those countries you tend to think their extremism to be imposed by a handful of out of touch thinkers and a counter reaction to outside forces. But when you really get familiarized with the situation, only then you truly understand why those ideas could take hold in the first place.This is the banality of evil.
