The more powerful our military is, the safer America and the world will be, GUARANTEED!
While browsing through various book reviews on Amazon.com I was unfortunate enough to come across this one horrible individual and his awful, hateful views.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/cdp/member-reviews/A2RM8U88ISMAP3/ref=cm_cr_auth/002-7636564-9396014?ie=UTF8&sort%5Fby=MostRecentReview

Here is one nugget of shameful filth indicative of this man's character and beliefs...

"I love this country and I, like most intelligent, informed Americans believe war is the answer, not the peace suggested by liberals..."

What is wrong with this guy? or anyone who agrees with him? There is no need for this. So much misguided anger.

1. War how? With whom? Using what weapons?
Aerial or ground-based?

War is the answer?

Against Hitler it may well have been necessary. But against a bunch of criminal religious fanatics?

Gawd, these people are STUPID.

2. War and the glorification of war is part and parcel of
fascist ideology

It is time to call these people exactly what they are... FASCISTS

3. I think the guy's a satirist.

This, from a book claiming we should invade Iran for the sake of Israel:

This book is a masterpiece. Mr. Evans is a staight talker who tells it like it is. We have to stop the liberals. All the liberals want is peace and healthcare for poor people and a clean environment (give me a break!). Those liberals are destroying America by their peace-mongering!
I think Mr. Evans makes a great point that peace IS anti-semitic.

Peace is NOT the answer. We need MORE war, NOT less. The Iranians are all Nazis. This is an historical fact. We must attack them before they kill us all. They are building concentration camps and gas chambers right now. They are making plans to gas our children.

All we are saying, is give WAR a chance. Who would Jesus bomb? He would bomb Iran and all the unbelievers (accept the Jews. They are the chosen people.) Read your Bible!


Come on. He's laying it on so thick, it would break your knife if you tried to spread it.

Now read this review, from a book complaining about Israel's influence in American politics.

Do not read this book. I have never in my life read so many lies in one book. He is just trying to divert our nation's attention from the lobbies that are doing the most harm: The pro-choice movement, the teachers unions, the environmental lobby, and, most theatening of all - the Norwegians.

I like it.

it is too much
if someone actually believed all that it would be absolutely ridiculous.

4. Wealth and Democracy by Kevin Phillips shows that wars concentrate wealth
and lead to economic empire's demise, witness Spain, Netherlands, Britain, and now US, due to the overconcentration of wealth in the hands of a few.

5. Being able to smash the opposition removes doubt for some people
Having to mess around with culture and differences in positions requires nuance, complex reasoning, and understanding. Thats not easy. Its so much easier to simply smash what is in your way. That is the thinking behind this sort of position. Its why intellectualism is looked upon with so much scorn in this society. We are taught by marketing, advertisers, and Corporations to think like they do to smash and destroy whatever is in our way to get what we want.

6. War is the only thing that will save this country IMO
But we will continue to exist in this perpetual state of obidience and comfort for the time being. War against the upperclass, against the corporations that run America, against the few families that have comfortably enslaved our population is the only means to break the chains that bind us. They have the power to live in 20K square foot enclaves, and yet we need to be reminded, with only a butane lighter, we have the power to burn them down.
