You support the aggression of an American commander in chief who is as much of a terrorist and mass murderer as any Islamic leader. It's all one-sided in your opinion. You are the ones who get excited about military hard times and deaths. As long as it leads to other deaths.
Your lack of courage and vision prevents you from understanding basic concepts such as "there are SOME THINGS worth fighting AND dying for." Political and Social Freedoms brought by a form of democracy are among those things. Your blindness prevents you from very basic comprehension regarding warfare, and the nature of same. You likely are ignorant - willfully so - of things such as "These guys are killing innocents - we are there to protect them until they can protect themselves."
YOUR ideas and methodology - your courting to terrorist groups - would only serve to lead us towards death and destruction to make 911 look like paint-ball.

That is a Crock of horseshit and you know it. You have never been banned for getting into a heated discussion with a moderator or admin. You've been banned for insults and lies to and about MY family. You've been banned, perhaps, for blatant, unproved, and unwarranted insults to staff about them as people AND/OR their decisions. But to say you've been banned for 'replying in kind' within the context of a thread is a damn lie.
“… the greatest detractor from high performance is fear: fear that you are not prepared, fear that you are in over your head, fear that you are not worthy, and ultimately, fear of failure. If you can eliminate that fear—not through arrogance or just wishing difficulties away, but through hard work and preparation—you will put yourself in an incredibly powerful position to take on the challenges you face" - Pete Carroll.
