I mean, I know how it happens. I just don't understand how they let it happen (tripped over some luggage). Sometimes I think people in the middle east are fucking retarded. Don't mean to offend anyone personally. But I just feel that way.

I remember reading a travel book that said not to even travel thru there if you could avoid it.

It's Planet of the Apes over there.

Its ridiculous, all those people just want to get to their holy place so they just push everyone infront of them and if someone falls they can't stop because everyone is pushing them from behind.

actually that was not a "racist comment".. If he said they looked like Planet of the Apes then yes it would be.. But, the comment alone of, "its planet of the Apes" refers to the type of life style. Which I would have to agree on this topic of people stepping on each other like lemmings. The middle east has been hanging on the coat tails of western society for years.. hate all you want.. the truth is hard to swallow at time.. without us they will turn into..

damn bro, if back peddling was a sport at the olympics, you'd be a gold medalist. Shit, if digging a deeper hole were a sport you'd be in the hall of fame. Fuck, if putting your foot in your mouth were a game you'd be setting records.

This comment is the reason people hate us and what we stand for. Dont get me wrong i am an american i love my home, and while i may not agree with decisions that are made, i do and will always support my homeland. But thinking that they need us and cannot fix their problems is insane. Things always have a way of working themselves out, and while it might not be pretty it is THEIR choice NOT ours.

There is no foot in the mouth or back peddling here.. look at what America has done in 200 years compared to those of 1000s of years.. I'm not saying they having nothing to offer and is a complete waste.. everyone can see values going down here too.. haha.. I'm just saying to look at the progress of society and the difference.. people can label it anyway they want. [patriot]

I dont think its right that we make generalizations based on the news reports.

Im not pointing the finger, I am making a blanket statement, we are all guilty of this on some level.

I mean, How would you feel if they made generalizations based on the news they get about us, they probably think you are a potential sex offender, or rediculously ignorant.

I am sure that there are a lot of really great people from the middle east. I know it. They never make the headlines though, so you would never know by the news.

And besides, ALL generalizations are false [Wink]
