You're grouping me in with the more ignorant Americans on DRAAT (they're awfully plentiful).

I agree that Hamas is bad but not every Palestinian is a part of it. To me much more important are the countless children killed, the many times the UN has had to interfere and issue a resolution targeting Israel, the upwards-of-20,000 homes destroyed by the Israelis, etc. The Palestinians were happy on their land and it was taken from them, I don't blame them for firing rockets into land that was theirs at one point during their lifetime. Palestinian-controlled land is shrinking and shrinking. I don't give a fuck about the Holocaust, Jews should not have been given their own country. I agree with Helen Thomas wholeheartedly when she said the Jews should "get the hell out of Palestine" and go home to Europe or America.

America really is the root of the problems though with the Israeli aid. Vietnam was in my opinion an unnecessary attempt to buffer Chinese or, to be more blunt,  Communist expansion and the like. I do not support America's current war. I definitely do not support the massacre of Natives and feel that is probably the most shameful act ever carried out by America.

Really, the Israeli/Palestinian conflict is not a pretty one and it never will be so I'm not saying that the Israelis as a whole are bad people or anything like that (just like I'm not saying Hamas is a positive group). It comes down to what I believe:

-Americans should not be aiding Israel or any other country.
-The Palestinians have more right to be there than Israelis.
-I don't care if BP isn't American, it's foolish to go to war for oil and then say WADDA WE DO WADDA WE DO when millions of barrels of oil are being pumped into the Gulf of Mexico.

There's not many wars/conflicts that I support throughout history; the Russian Revolution, the American Revolution, World War II, the Gulf War (definitely not all practices done throughout the war, just the defense of Kuwait). I'm drawing a blank, I'm SURE there's more but I can't really think of any.

tl;dr
Israel and Palestine are both playing dirty, but Palestine has much more right to be doing so. War sucks and stuff. American foreign policy has been pretty fucked up at times throughout history, including now.

I can understand him perfectly in in a story like that I'd rather have it be written like it was than all perfect English and dapper and shit.

I believe so. My Hendrix collection is HUGE and I can't imagine that it was all professionally recorded because I have like over 100 live performances of his.

*EDIT*
Wow that site is great. I got a Tool show and I'm eying (is that really how it's spelled?) up some other ones.

woot :3

I love them but you've reached a point where I cannot love them any more than I do now. I feel this can only be solved by capturing new scenes and using different artistic elements.

-You have no life
-Probably a virgin
-Your mom still try's to make you feel better
-And I'm still cooler than you

I don't know why I'm about to share what I'm about to share but here goes.

-Yes
-Yes
-Yes
-That's an opinion. Biased one at that.

Not everybody's goal in life is to get pussy as you call it (You know, they do have names and brains). I've made choices in life and if I made them differently I could easily answer "No" to #2 (not because I think I'm all that but because I knew a lot of girls that made terrible choices along those lines. Think village bicycle.). The fact is, I'm happy with the choices I made. Sure I could have gotten laid in High School but chances are, I wouldn't be with that woman now. I don't care who you are, we (everybody) matures as we get older and I made a lot of stupid choices in High School and getting laid would fall into that category. Call me a fag or queer or whatever the fuck but I'm waiting for the right relationship and a time in my life where I can be devoted to it.

Do I think you're cooler for getting SOOOO much pussy? No. I don't envy you, I don't think you're great because of that. In fact, that aspect does the opposite of what you might think, it makes me think you're an irresponsible dick.
