Nothing good comes from nuclear bombs? WWII ended because of 2 of them. Never heard of it? Nukes would remove one part of the problem in the middle east along with a significant part of the users of the bomb. Sure it would take out a lot of civilians, but they're dying right now because of suicide bombers, car bombs, etc. The land would be unusable for a couple of generations thus allowing it to heal and over those generations old wounds would heal as well. In time it would allow a new generation of understanding and peace. Look at the world today. If the nukes hadn't been used 60+ years ago who knows what would the world would be like today? I doubt we'd have the freedoms many of us know and enjoy. When one country or block of people attempt to overlay their beliefs on everyone a good sound ass-kicking is in order. The allies did it to Germany. The US did it to Japan. It's happened time and again throughout history and you have to ask what the benefit of my suggestion would be?

I was mainly thinking of the civilians and the damage it would do to the land, and surrounding countries.
It is truly disgusting what is happening over there.
Im all for stopping the evil, there is evil all over the world, in may shapes and forms, I like to watch the news to stay up to date, but dang it's depressing.

Really? Did nuclear bombs cause Germany to surrender?

Even with Japan, historians are divided over that conclusion. There were many things that may have caused Japan to surrender including the Soviet Union attacking Japanese forces and the continued bombing of the home islands using napalm.

Hey! There's no need to treat me like that! I made a mistake and didn't catch it when I proofread it! A simple,"I think you made a mistake." would have been better than just making me out to look like an ass. Are you related to Lonny? Your opening comment is below what standard that is currently accepted by rational and sensible people.

Why is it that people on this forum are so hostile and quick to pick out a simple mistake and make a big deal out of it? It sure as hell doesn't make for a very hospitable environment?!

I think the 2 bombs worked very well and was the right thing to do. Japan attacked us out of nowhere and like cowards. It was the most cowardly attack in human history or at least of the 20th century. They caused those 2 bombs to happen. If you don't wanna get bombed then mind your own business and don't cowardly attack another country.

Pretty soon China will rule the world sadly. Look at how they treat their Olympic athletes, like slaves. I feel sorry for those girls. I guess those China people over there are just naturally cold hearted.

I will not engage you. You clearly, from other threads and replies of yours I've read, have an inability to give direct answers. Apparently your comprehension is also lacking considering I gave the explanation in the very next sentence after the part you quoted. Apparently ignorance is just your way of dealing with people. I will refrain from replying to you in the future. Any and all replies of yours will be judged as meaningless drivel until the day comes you can answer with honesty, integrity and without using a question. Regardless of intellect I suggest you start practicing the phrase,"Would you like fries with that?" because no good employer is going to want a person who constantly questions everything.

Good day.

Politics weren't being discussed. It was a historical discussion and how those incidents could impact the world today. However, since "politics" isn't supposed to be discussed because of it being taboo what can be talked about? Surely not kids shows. Their are so many poor shows out there for kids and even ones which have been made out to depict homosexuality, Sesame's Street Bert and Ernie, even though they aren't gay. No kids show discussions. Can't discuss current issues since most, check that, ALL have a political bent to them so that can't be discussed. Space travel? I doubt that. More politics based on cost, budgets, government involvement, etc. Religion? Not a chance since it's quite a volatile topic. Games? Probably not. The government is involved in the ratings system and I do believe there is current discussion at some government level as to whether games cause violent behavior. TV? Possibly not given that I saw Lonny bash people for watching reality TV and that could cause a divide in the harmonious state of the forum. Music? Maybe. Doesn't seem to be a problem so far. So we're left with the thread games and quizzes forum. I partook in it briefly, got harassed for it and I will not make use of it again.

Since most every topic is considered taboo I would ask for a list of what can be discussed without borders. A friend of mine had suggested this forum to me as being a good place to debate topics of current interest. However, I don't see that it is. Good natured back and forth is not encouraged, but stifled instead. Current political topics are taboo and considering what has happened in Japan I'm shocked that can't be discussed. Perhaps I'll just wander back to whence I came for a while and check back much later to see if things have changed here. I'm optimistic they will. After reading many threads from past months/years I'm optimistic it will. At what point it changed to this current format I'm wasn't able to decipher, but it's moot.

Good day.

@Draztik-Meshurz - Wars,Conflicts etc are in my opinion POLITICAL ISSUES which in turn is politics.

From experience here topics like this usually lead to arguments and flame wars here so rather than argue back just accept the fact that your discussion is over.

It's your choice. Rolling Eyes

I gave an AB rep to you out of respect for your messages (that would be your second AB rep). Would you like fries with that AB rep? Wink

Wow, I guess Neeraffa was right xD Who would've guessed?

Nice comeback, though xD

It's amazing how people always aggressively defend their point of view. (Not that I don't get caught up in it from time to time, but) It's so fun to watch ^.^
