China creates video game simulating combat against US troops

[Ziggurat]

China isn't a democracy why compare it to one?

In truth, the difference between China` s government and, say, the US government is not so much.

You don't actually object to comparing a dictatorship to a democracy., Caveman. You object to contrasting them.

Can I ask you something? did the people of America have any say over invading Afghan, or Libya or any other place the US troops are currently occupying?

American troops aren't occupying Libya. And it's also the only example you've pointed to which did NOT have congressional authorization, and if you don't think the people have any input on what Congress does, well, lay off the bong.

Did anyone of you demand to know what happened to the supposed weapons of mass destruction or got answers about the weapons of mass destruction?

Yes. Go read the Duelfer report if you actually want to find out.

I'm not being sarcastic, I only want to know something.

Because you don't actually know, and can't figure it out yourself. Which is kind of the point. You keep talking about stuff you clearly have no clue about.

Because Shrek said they were the same. Aren't you paying attention?

Can I ask you something?

Not really interested in what you have to say.

To tell the truth, I suspected you'd not answer Freedoman

 

[Ziggurat]

Zig's reasoning is on MAY, CAN, PERHAPS to justify that China is a danger/threat to the US.
Nothing he has quoted as evidence shows that China is a threat, he only created his opinion based on what MIGHT happen.

Well, yes. If something bad MIGHT happen, there's a danger (or threat) of it happening. Neither word indicates that it WILL happen, and I've explicitly stated (multiple times) that I'm not making any such claim.

I suggest you start learning Chinese.

I suggest you start learning English.

 

[PhilosophicalCaveman]

Yes. Go read the Duelfer report if you actually want to find out.

I do know, but do you? Did you know that there was no weapons of mass destruction, the excuse used to go to war in 2003. Did you have any say in that war Zigg? A 1,000-page report that just shows that YOUR excuse for invading Afghan was only PR. Well that's freedom, I guess.

He doesn't know why we went to war in Afghanistan.

Not to mention that it was in 2001. He Probably was a young child back then and doesn't remember.

 

[Ziggurat]

I do know

You previously claimed you didn't. And your response indicates that you still don't.

but do you? Did you know that there was no weapons of mass destruction, the excuse used to go to war in 2003.

I know more than you, evidently. Including both the fact that some chemical weapons were found, and that the justification for war included a lot more than WMD's. Which you'd know if you had read the actual congressional authorization. But clearly you didn't.

Did you have any say in that war Zigg?

Yes.

You're confusing Afghanistan (not Afghan) with Iraq. What a perfect encapsulation of your ignorance.

Believe me, you have no idea why you went to war and I don't mean PR.
Don't worry, you're all planned to move out at the same speed you went in.

 

[PhilosophicalCaveman]

The reason that China only intervenes with its neighbors is that they're the only ones it has the capacity to intervene with. But they're working hard to change that. You really think that once they have the capacity to intervene further abroad that they won't? You think the communist party of China is too principled?

I want you to tell me why we went to war in Afghan(istan). WMDs or no?

And Iraq was not exclusively about WMD either by the by.

 

[Pardalis]

Let me guess what he's going to say, we went to war in Afghanistan because of the gas pipeline (the one that never got made).

 

[PhilosophicalCaveman]

The officials said that the 1,000-page report by Charles A. Duelfer, the chief U.S. weapons inspector in Iraq, concluded that Hussein had the desire but not the means to produce unconventional weapons that could threaten his neighbors or the West. President Bush has continued to assert in his campaign stump speech that Iraq had posed "a gathering threat."

China intervening abroad (which they're already doing, though so far more indirectly) isn't necessarily a problem for us. Again, this is something which should be obvious, but yet it isn't to you.

Son, I am disappoint.

 

[Ziggurat]

I don't think you have any idea of why we even said we went to war. You can't even keep Iraq vs. Afghanistan straight.

 

[excaza]

So, no.

Are you being intentionally dense?

I'm sure it's accidental.

 

[IDB87]

For his sake, I hope he does - mentioning the pipeline will mean he's at least paying attention to SOMETHING. It'd be a step up, in other words.

Do you realise that that was a quote of what you previously said? You are responding to your own post.

 

[Ziggurat]

Way to miss the point.

I know that quote was from me. But you apparently couldn't figure out what that quote meant. There is a danger of military conflict between the US and China. That means there's a possibility, not a certainty. If China intervenes militarily in some third country, that doesn't automatically mean we will go to war with China. So nothing about that earlier quote conflicts with what I later said, contrary to your assertion.

Again, you fail to understand what should be obvious. Two claims about different things are not the same as two different claims about the same thing.
