First Rebuttal I’ve Ever Written

First I’d like to start by saying that I had no idea that I have as many readers on my site as I obviously do. I say that because I got sooo many e-mails, just completely bashing me for my views pertaining to the bombing of Iraq, that it surprised me. So, thanks for reading my stuff. Moving forward, although I state clearly on my disclaimer page that I don’t care if my views are right or wrong, I did feel the need to rebut some of the more “strenuous” attacks, and to clear up some points that, perhaps, were not clear in the original article. Here goes… my first rebuttal.

- I realize that I misspelled Genghis Khan (this is the correct spelling for those of us who live in America BTW, look it up… you know who you are J). Since most of the e-mails pointing out my horrible spelling of that name use nifty items like “u” (to mean you), and “cause” (to mean because), and because the rampant overuse, or complete misplacement of periods, capital letters, commas, and any other grammatical tool imaginable also presided over the nasty-grams… I’m not too defensive about that one. I misspelled his name and I apologize.

- Many of the hate letters referenced my opinion that Iraq is a Stone Age level shit stain on the underwear of the world. To that I say this; If it weren’t for the oil, most of the Middle Eastern countries, specifically in that region of the Middle East, would be filled with impoverished, mostly under educated, underfed, angry, militant, religious fanatics who have little or no concern for the value of their own lives, much less the lives of decedent American swine like me. Most of the people in that area would just as eagerly cut my throat, as they would take my American dollars for their barrels of crude. So don’t even try to build a case for them with me, because anywhere that the consensus is that I suck because I have more or better opportunities simply because I live in America (opportunity brings with it crushing responsibility and debt my friends), and where the majority of people hate me, without knowing me first, because their leaders make their life tough, is not someone that I can derive the slightest amount of empathy or concern for. Sorry, but that’s life. You hate me because I’m American, so be it. Don’t ask me for something and then call me a fuckin bastard when I say no. Oh, just to be clear on this… They just released fairly compelling evidence that Iraq aids the same terrorists that fuckin blew up the biggest and best city in the state where I live, killing thousands, and a couple people that I knew. And for the last two weeks, we’ve been on Orange alert, waiting for a chemical or biological strike. So if my feelings are strong and opinionated, and that bothers you, feel free to go fuck yourself.

-And lastly, when I said that we should make a horrible gruesome example of Iraq, I didn’t mean that we should rape the women, kill children, and mulch the helpless. I meant make a decisive and devastating strike against strategic military targets, with massive military casualties. We have the technology to strike microscopically, and with pinpoint precision… it’s all in the news if you’d like to read about it. I’m not Saddam, I don’t abide by or support killing innocent people to make a fucked up semi-religious, mostly political point, Geesh! Some of you need your own websites so you can preach your message of love and unity in your own way instead of looking for a soapbox to stand on based on what I write. Christ, I’ve said it a hundred times… You’re right to disagree with me, I have fuckin whacked views most of the time. If you read something that I write, and whole-heartedly agree on every point, then you’d better get checked man, because you’re not quite right either.

So anyway, that was my first ever attempt to explain myself for something I’ve written. I appreciate the feedback, and the fodder. I’m still convinced that devastating Iraq now is the best overall course of action. It could give North Korea a good idea to stand down before the real war starts.

Peace (with discretion),

-Original Article-

Not like last time, when we bombed and invaded and THEN let diplomacy take over. I mean like really bomb the fucker back to the Stone Age, not that they've come very far since that period of human evolution anyway. I'm so fuckin sick of hearing about it on the radio, and seeing the endless debates from the UN reps sayin, "oh, please give Saddam some more time", and the useless democrats with their little girl fuckin whining, and "we want to see proof" bullshit pussy politics. My fuckin god, enough is enough. We're the United States... Iraq is a piss ant third-world insignificant shit stain on the underwear of the world. Does he have weapons of mass destruction? Does he have chemical and biological weapons?? Does he have nuclear weapons??? Who fuckin cares at this point! When a fly gets into the house do you stop to ask if it may be carrying a disease? No, you fuckin swat it. One of these days one of these fuckin upity little shit for brains countries, like Iraq or Afghanistan, or Bosnia, or Somalia, or maybe even North Korea is going to take things just a little too far, and we will finally act instead of engaging in never-ending discussion about what should be done, within reason, so we don't make our buddies mad at us. It's too bad that it's going to take like fuckin thousands of people's lives to push us to that point. If 9/11/01 wasn't enough to wake the sleeping giant, what the fuck does it take? We tried to be nice, and civil, and diplomatic, and every fucknut with a "religious" cause and a border has screwed with us. I say it's time to make an example out of someone... Iraq is as good a place to do it as any. It's a simple military tactic, it's called winning by intimidation and then by attrition. Alexander the Great, the Romans, and Gingus Kahn all knew it. Sun Tzu wrote all about it in "The Art of War". If you want to minimize battles and war, first you flex your military muscle, then you make a bloody, fuckin gruesome example of some country, and then no one wants to fight you anymore. Yeah, it may only last for a few hundred years, but that's not a bad run considering our country's short but war-torn history.

Or maybe I just had too much coffee this morning.
