Oil is what America needs. Oil is what America gets.

Stop being shallow my friend.

The attacker said so.

There aren't scientists in those countries with the expertise or resources to learn how to make a nuke. It's not something that you can learn on the internet. That's why so little countries have nukes today.

Also, the US has made it a point to isolate dictators from their diplomatic ties. Ships carrying nukes would not only leak radiation allow the US to detect it, but it would take very long and would be hard to disguise, because, let's face it, you don't detonate a nuke, you drop it.

You can't get small pox because it's currently only in two labs, one in the US, the other in Russia, neither willing to destroy their sample because they fear what would happen if the other set it loose.

first off, you can learn how to build a nuclear weapon online, you can learn just about anything really.

a lead box shows no radiation and no, it does not need to be dropped, you can easily detonate a warhead at ground level. That was just ignorant of you.

And finally Small pox hay very well have escaped labs in Russia or the surrounding satellite nations at the fall of the USSR, and it does not necessarily need to be small pox but any ghastly, perhaps Ebola. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ebola

what a shallow thing to say.

You mean, what a "very-to-the-point" thing to say.

It's not a secret...really.

amreeka is currently trying to exploit the new mineral riches found in afghanistan as we speak

America is what is left over from the days of Imperialism.

It needs to wake up and see it's mistakes before it's too late for it.

America discovered the mineral deposits when Afghanistan has only been growing drugs. also Ahmed if you hate America so then leave, go live in Afghanistan if that will make you happier.

I have as much right to live in the USA as you do Preid. So if you want to leave you could go ahead too.

Now as I was saying, that doesn't matter. It doesn't matter who discovered what. The US invaded another country and steals its minerals, regeradless of whatether it "discovered" it or not.

Now that all four corners of the Earth are controlled by various countries, imperialism is impossible.

So what, you saying life isn't fair? Your parents chose to live in this country for the American Dream just as many other immigrants have. You are lucky enough to have a place to live here, and yet you complain about the government here. I suggest you be happy with what you have.

1. Imperialism doesn't need empt, ungoverned land. Imperialism thrives on inading other countries.

2. Yes, life isn't fair, but that is irrelevant. What is the problem with complaingin about the governement? Do you know your American rights? You have the right to protest agaisnt the governement. No horrible government should exist.

lol i find it astonishing that neither preid or jj can acknowledge that america has ever done something wrong in their history LOL

Well I find it astonishing that you guys wouldn't admit that the terrorists America is fighting are wrong.

wow you ignorant.

you havent read my opinion on the taliban?? but of course america is above criticism the crimes of these terrorists are like a drop of water compared to the ocean of americas terrorism

The point is, you're ignorant. America does not kill civilians on purpose, America does not steal minerals, and the only thing America is doing is hunting down terrorists. All you people are doing is making up conspiracy theories that make you look like supporters of terrorists.

sayf Ahmed, i think it is plane to see you have poor influences in your life. Ahmed i am content with my life here and although i want change i wont commit suicide to obtain it, you on the other hand appear to simply wish for the end result without a transaction period and rush to a poor end. you also fail to acknowledge the fact that third world nations like Afghanistan could not convent to a mining economy on there own, and the fact that the US is helping them should be praised not condemned. Feel fry to start bs'ing you way threw this topic and call us ignorant but in the end no matter how you feel you as a single person can not change the USA. I believe the only way you could truly appreciate the grand life style you have here is to lose it, perhaps as a medical student go on a expiation in order to help in remote parts of the world and see what great evils Americans do when providing help. you know they say if your not part of the solution your part of the problem and complaining is definitely not a solution.

I am not suiciding either. Of course there should be a transition period, but it must start with you and the American governement admitting that you are wrong.

If America wanted to help it would have sent companies. Not soldiers.

first off, did you hit your head today? private American owned businesses monopolizing the Afghan minerals is imperialism you noob, the army is much better suited to helping form a structured organization and support large scale mining projects. News flash Ahmed, Americas not evil.

Transition period? Those words made me think of either a nuclear war or a massive natural catastrophic event that destroys most of human civilization since new governments have to be made in the aftermath of those events.

to many games my friend.

Yeah, try making a game about the movie 2012. But seriously, only new governments can form after the destruction of old ones.

@Preid: No I did not hit my head and I never said that. I was trying to say that the US should build some companies in Afghanistan...teach people how to manage...if they want to help. Soldiers are for war not helping a growing economey.

so your saying america in its history has never killed civilians?
