Islamic Thugocraxy?
Look, While I am as far from beinga Islamic as possible,(I am an Irish catholic) I also don't believe in racial profiling. Your statement was just blatantly racist. Honestly I am embarrassed by your behavior of blaming them for our military ing up.
What would we do if two Iranian gun boats were caught in our waters? Do you really believe the crews and their boats would be released within 24 hours?
Politicians are obviously involved, the only question is how high up does their involvement go?
BTW - thugocracy - is obviously a redneck made up word word that obviously means "I am a racist, and I don't think I should take any blame if I up)
Before you go calling someone a racist, perhaps you better learn the difference between race, religion, government, and ideology.
It's important to understand that the people in question are, contrary to popular belief, not Arabs. Iranians are completely different (Indo-European) and are of the Aryan race. Interestingly, so was Hitler. Their race is Aryan while Islam is their religion............ big difference.
While there is an Arab race, it's confined to the Arabian peninsula although the language is shared by people of other races throughout the Middle East and North Africa.
Farsi is the language of Iran, not Arabic and although Farsi has borrowed many Arabic words, Farsi is as different from Arabic as Japanese is from English.
Most Arabs, most Iranians, and most populations which speak Arabic are Muslims, which is a religion rather than a race. But Islam is also an ideology, a way of life, and in some instances it's actually a form of government. Iranians and Arabs differ in their religion too; most Iranians are Shiites while most Arabs are of the Sunni sect. It is said that the only thing an Shiite hates worse than a Christian is a Sunni. The two branches are quite unlike the difference between a Presbyterian and a Methodist.
I would say "Islamic Thugocraxy" is not a bad way to describe the current Iranian government. I lived in Iran for several years and I speak Farsi, so I have some experience in this area.
Implying that someone is not only a red-neck but also a racist for using the term demonstrates your lack of understanding. Plus, it seems to me to be mean spirited, wouldn't you say? Playing the race card is a favorite trick of the left wing liberals and nearly always is associated with the inability offer up a valid argument or counter argument.
"Islamic Thugocraxy" it has nothing to do with race and I wonder if you might consider giving this forum an apology for using that uncalled-for and vicious form of rebuttal to what is a passionate but (until your post) a civilized discussion.
