Mate, you are an asshole, shut the fuck up.

Oh, your creative flair makes me weak at the knees. What is the point of going on a holiday if you are simply visiting a bastion of our own society? There is very little culture, you won't see anything that you wouldn't see at home, so why bother going. And such tourist traps are the target of bombings anyway.

pffft what type of people blow them selfs and there own people to prove a point ? i'll tell you dumb cu*ts

Waddaya mean pfft? My drugs are pure reason, and a global perspective. The kind of people that blow themselves up are from a different background to you, so you cannot reasonably pass judgement. Yes, they blow themselves up and they blow up their peers. They also truly beleive that this will make them a martyr. Again it is a war based on religion.

They beleive there is no choice beyond what we tag 'terrorism', and in truth, there isn't. I state again that I do not condone the activities of these groups, but consider it from their perspective. Do you see any Muslim nation with political power and an ability to create a global readjustment in power and wealth? nup. How do we lucky people live the decadent lifestyle to which we have become accustomed? Capitalism, my friends.

The methods of capitalism are unfair trade. Goods are imported for a very small cost and then sold at our inflated cost. An item in a third world country may cost $2 to make. They then sell it for $2.50, and it is sold in another country for $50. How is that 'fair and equal' to the seller, and as a follow on effect, their country? If no goods were imported, we would be unable to maintain profits.

So this places poor nations in a position in which trade is not a tremendous source of profit, and as such, wealth and power cannot be accrued. We just so happen to be living in a time where a religion has justified to some sick minorities that the slaughter of rich people is a feasible method of gaining power/immunity/wealth, whichever it may be in a given circumstance.

Our society, on its moral high horse fails to recognise capitalism as opression, so violence is the primary response. As shraka said, if we make trade fair, we lose out (but we won't have to pay aid), but third world countries become self sufficient, and cultural differences would no longer cause such violence.

tripmcneily, grow up. Since when has this thread been dedicated to venting hate? Sounds unreasonable to me that you should pigeon hole your opinion as being correct.

What's wrong with harbouring discussion on a discussion board anyway? it's blatantly apparent that some people just wish to be heard criticising an entire demographic due to the actions of a minority, rather than proposing reasons for such hatred.
