Is this really that hard to understand? Is my english really that bad?
I said I had arab friends! They speak as you call it arab! Though I thought it was called arabic. My arab friends speak both(I know this will cause you heartproblems) Icelandic/Swedish and Arabic. They have friends and family who are still on the middle-east. They tell me what they hear from "the other side". Do you get it now?

don't try to be a smart ass. it doesn't look good on you, or lerky either.
so what you are saying is that your friends speak on behalf of the entire middle east then?

Why do I bother??? Does the one reporter sitting in the studio talk for all of them? Your logic and reasoning is flawed........

I'm beginning to think so as well. Unfortunatly this isn't any different from his usual behaviour so it is hard to tell.

i am just saying just because you know a few middle eastern people hardly makes you any more of a person that is in the know than anyone else really. unless your friends are in every area of the middle east

I'll do this just for you.
My friends are from
1. Lebanon
2. Syria
3. Kurdistan
4. Iraq
5. Iran
6. Afganistan
7. Yemen
8. Palestine
I hope I didn't forget anyone. This gives a much more accurate image of the situation than some reporter in the studio back home.
I see you have yet to back up your statement with a link or any facts. Until you do please STFU.

It's probably not your fault you are so ignorant, but that isn't an excuse to keep playing stupid!
Anyway, continue your trolling.

wow. such hostility. you can say whatever but honestly, you have yet to prove anything more than me. i said what i heard and you said what you have heard. so when was the last time you talked to your friends in iraq, iran, palestine, yemen, afganistan, syria and lebanon?

I don't want to speak for Logic but WTF does he have to 'prove' to you about anything? That you are a racist? We already know that.

you don't know anything.
just because i don't view everything as black and white as you do, doesn't mean i am racist. what is so racist about any of my remarks in this thread? you can call me anything you want, i am not racist. i don't like the way that certain people do certain things, but trust me, they can be white, black, brown, yellow, or pale as can be and that has nothing to do with it. the only thing it does have to do with it, is when a topic comes up about that is about another race of people and people like you have nothing to say except you are racist. get a grip and come sit at the big boy table when you can communicate like one.
the fact that a simple topic like this ends up with you replying as above shows just the level of intelligence you are capable of discussing.

miss cleo would be proud. whats the big deal? i don't need a rise out of you all. its just funny to see all of you guys such experts on the minds middle eastern people. how do you know what they believe? i know if you get force fed enough info you probably start believing it. case in point: the iraqi people.
its funny too that the iraqi claim when we took over the airport was that we hadn't. even after we showed video and all of it, russian news was siding with the iraqi claim. so what do you think the russian people believed? there. that is not about middle eastern people. am i still being racist?
ok, now i just heard it again, this time i had a chance to actually watch it.
this was on foxnews, and like the guy above said, this time it was a blond chick that said it.
she said that many people, i think she was reporting from jordan, simple do not believe that the US is doing what they are reporting in baghdad. they think it is all a "staged hollywood production".
ok? i didn't make this thread to argue about it. just simply stated what was being reported from someone who actually was in the mix with people from an middle eastern country and is saying what she is seeing and hearing from that area.
personally i don't care whether who believes what. the truth is the truth.

You base your notions of reality based on what Fox news chicks say? This would explain a few things....

Funny enuff, I thought I was. But a reference further up cleared the scales from my eyes. SNOTNOSE! How could I have missed it? Also makes my "full moon" topic all the more topical. LMAO

Ooops! I was confused. Forgot I over-rode Theolein's sucker link to "ignore snotnose" (was you, weren't it, Theo?)
