Ok. Enough about foreign policy. This is something I feel strongly about. I don't agree with war no matter what the false premises are. People are gonna get killed and the politicians are lying anyway. I don't think it's right to first support a country and fund it so heavily to destroy other enemies, then turning your back against it and accusing it of having WMDs (which you also have) and being an evil dictatorship, then going inside and occupying it and killing lots of people just to feed big corporations (talking about Iraq). If I'm gonna tell you my opinion on the foreign policy, I think it's full of shit and hypocritic. Lots of double talking and false premises.
