Mark Latham, a one time leader of the socialist opposition here once called the Government :"There they are, a conga line of suck holes on the conservative side of politics." when debating the Iraq search for WMD. Of course that was a fiasco and both US and Australia were misled by shonky intelligence. Hope this clears up the question.<br />Kingstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15166346882352724420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066062120776667625.post-22395407655266473542015-11-17T11:11:14.473-08:002015-11-17T11:11:14.473-08:00Lou you're clearly deranged.

The right in our country lacks nothing when it comes to not acknowledging allies, unless of course, we are talking about Israel. <br /><br />Australia IS a very solid ally of the US, regardless of whether at times the mission undertaken is of questionable intent, such as Iraq. If you feel the US left only pays lip service, that's fair enough I guess, but let's be honest that this is far from a left perspective in this country. Look at all the war mongers now on the Republican stage making stupid comments about "Leading from behind". They do not remotely see many of our allies as anything but non equal contributors, further, they want everyone in the world to know that it is the US who is the spear tip of everything. If you dissatisfied with lack of acknowledgment from the left for Australia's commitment, then I think you would be even more disappointed to see that this is quite an engrained phenomenon in American thinking at all political leanings.

This shall be my final Post ...Max Lou and William.<br /><br />This shall be my final Post which will be addressed to William. About two or three years ago I temporarily departed from the site because I could not stomach the continual bile from William. After some months I returned because I found the posts of the other members interesting and enlightening.<br /><br />I do not intend leaving on this occasion but I shall no longer recognise the contributions from William. I shall not respond after this post to anything William may say concerning myself or my country.<br /><br />I would like to thank Louman for his support and Max for his perspicacity with his post concerning Aripiprazole.For some time I had been wondering along these lines but I forbear for obvious reasons from commenting.<br /><br />So in conclusion, for one final time, the views I post here concerning US politics are mine alone. There is no Left or Right bias. I have no right to support or denigrate either party unless I do so equally. My personal view for domestic politics here is that I support the Right. I fully support the Alliances Australia has with the United States, always have always will. The Left here tend to pay lip service to the relationship and for that I feel nothing but contempt<br /><br />As for William. I have nothing further to say. I do however have some sympathy for a troubled soul.<br /><br />Cheers then from Aussie<br />Kingstonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15166346882352724420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066062120776667625.post-68405018553099206552015-11-16T11:35:55.463-08:002015-11-16T11:35:55.463-08:00https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aripiprazolehttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AripiprazoleMax Yasgurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02816449822816423030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066062120776667625.post-1929013021892682872015-11-16T10:58:31.733-08:002015-11-16T10:58:31.733-08:00Iou, I've heard his pap over and over again.

The difference you try to drive people out of the conversation instead of respecting their opinion. <br /><br />I appreciate an opinion form another country it gives us a perspective on what the world thinks of the US.

See U.S. Const. amend. I. Freedom of expression consists of the rights to freedom of speech, press, assembly and to petition the government for a redress of grievances, and the implied rights of association and belief. The Supreme Court interprets the extent of the protection afforded to these rights.<br /><br />You do believe in the constitution don't you?<br /><br />It not only applies to Americans but it applies to everyone who wishes to speak. The right to freedom of speech allows individuals to express themselves without interference or constraint. <br /><br />Seems your interference is getting in the way of the 1st amendment.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />loumanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04882146154150499756noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4066062120776667625.post-21579242051401342382015-11-15T17:14:47.117-08:002015-11-15T17:14:47.117-08:00Your views become tiresome.

William, if this is your understanding of my posts then I am wasting my time. Your remarks are beyond my comprehension. <br /><br />Some time ago you described my nation as a small outpost. Perhaps you do not know that Australia is the thirteenth largest economy in the world and this with a population of just over thirty million. As for the Geographical description. Wrong again William. Australia is the sixth largest country in land mass and is similar in size to Continental United States.<br /><br />From the figures above, perhaps you can see where your writings and your opinions far outweigh the intellectual rigueur required for even elementary junior school debates.

The extremists have already declared war on all Muslims who do not follow them. The purpose was to stir up anti-Muslim hatred on the continent, to stop the refugees whom ISIS wants to secure as their subjects. ISIS could care less about Europe, at least until the middle east in secured as the new Caliphate and all Muslims who disagree with them have been eliminated. Until Europe and her allies realize this, the new "war on terrorism" will fail just like the old one did.

You are quite correct that in this country, there is not enough recognition for the other countries who have sacrificed on our behalf, we all owe your country and the other countries respect and acknowledgement. Portraying the US, however, as a unilateral agent was not and is not my intention. We are the great satan for many of these whack jobs, and while they make take out a grudge against our allies, the US remains their favorite whipping boy and purported monster that needs to be destroyed. Whatever we are doing from within this country is not working, and that is really my point. <br /><br />Rick, I hear what you are saying, but again, the thought comes to mind, suppose we take over the entire muslim lands of the middle east. Then what? This is sectarian violence within the muslim world. The countries that oppose ISIS, like Iran, hate us as much as ISIS does. No matter who we attack there, we are doing a favor to some other country that is not our friend. I'm not sure there is any solution that involves non muslims dictating terms to the rest.
