No.


Canada sent troops to Afghanistan to prevent the US from throwing
up
trade hassles between the US and Canada. That's always the big
stick
the US waves at Canada. Softwood lumber, mad-cow beef, etc.


There's nothing to be gained for Canada in Afghanistan (commercial
or
otherwise). It's all about keeping the trade lanes open between
Canada
and the US.


But for the US, you apparently get a real hard-on when you occupy
foreign real estate, set up military bases, air bases, liberate oil
fields, etc.


Second thing, I guess you're too DENSE to see the difference
between murdering 16 civillians door-to-door in the middle of
the night vs anxious soldiers at checkpoints with ichy trigger
fingers.
I see ONE man who broke under the pressure and not a number of
people with itchy trigger fingers, and thus poor training.


What's wrong with your reading comprehension?


Can't you follow a thread?


Go back and look at the comments where Trader4 is trying to
associate or
draw similarities with this 1-man murder spree and Canadian
soldiers who
have shot afghan civillians in cars at checkpoints.


I'm only pointing out to that fool that it's asinine to compare the
two
situations.


And I'm only pointing out that you're an anti-American bigot and
hypocrite. If what was going on in Afghanistan were your real
concern,
then you'd be railing against the Canadian govt, which you claim
buckled under economic interests to send troops there. And you'd
be railing against them for Canadian troops shooting innocent
children.
Yet, your peculiar selective moral anger is only directed at the USA.
Curious thing that.


As for a lone gunmen going berserk, Canada isn't immune from them
either, so perhaps you should do your bitching the


"The Dawson College shooting occurred on September 13, 2006 at Dawson
College, a CEGEP in Westmount near downtown Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
The perpetrator, Kimveer Gill, began shooting outside the de
Maisonneuve Boulevard entrance to the school, and moved towards the
atrium by the cafeteria on the main floor.[1][2] One victim died at
the scene, while another 19 were injured, eight of whom were listed
in
critical condition with six requiring surgery.[3][4][5] The shooter
later committed suicide by shooting himself in the head, after being
shot in the arm by police.[6]"


"Marc Lépine (October 26, 1964 – December 6, 1989) was a 25-year-old
man from Montreal, Canada who murdered fourteen women and wounded ten
women and four men[1] at the École Polytechnique, an engineering
school affiliated with the Université de Montréal, in the "École
Polytechnique massacre", also known as the "Montreal Massacre".[2][3]
He had long complained about women working in non-traditional jobs,
and after separating men and women in a classroom, he shot the women,
claiming that he was fighting feminism. He then moved into other
parts
of the building, targeting women as he went, before killing himself.

To be a bigot and hypocrite he'd have to be telling lies and he isn't.
The status of the USA sinks lower by the day in the eyes of the
world..
Believe it or not, that matters. Especially the way your economy is
heading.- Hide quoted text -

I'm sure our status does indeed matter. When you or some other
pansy country and their socialist pinko govts let the
bad guys get out of control again and needs us to save your asses,
then our status will improve to be just peachy keen.- Hide quoted text -

YOU are the bad guys these days.


ONLY in the eyes of ignorant ****heads like you
Funny, how you are on the side of the other ****heads like the Taliban
One has to wonder why.
