    Either when it started, when Spartacus turned it into "AMERICA FUCK YEAH!" or when Grant became a fascist.

    Iraq was WMDs; Afghanistan was to remove the Taliban with the reasoning that they supported al-Qaeda because although they asked Osama (how the fuck is Osama not in the spellchecker but Obama is?) to leave Afghanistan, they didn't extradite them due what they said was a lack of evidence. It's debatable whether the Taliban was just bullshitting or really was just looking for information, because although the Taliban would've been supporters of Osama, the fact remains that the Taliban was and still is only interested in Afghanistan and couldn't give two shits about countries outside of it.

    After playing metal gear games for like a month, the 9/11 fisaco and the conspiracy sounds like a shitty metal gear plot.

    As a follow up to my last post, Canada is going to be losing it's independence again and might become a Chinese satellite at some point in the next 30 years.

    Yes, the same Stephen Harper who gave a whole speech about how communism is bad and that people suffered under it and the cold war blah blah blah, is the same Stephen Harper who ratified this treaty with the largest surviving socialist state in the world.

    As a German, I can not understand, why Scotland wants to be independent. In the past, Germany consists of a huge number of little nations. (see http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/42/Deutsches_Reich1.png ). This was called "Kleinstaaterei" ( see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kleinstaaterei )... a bad era of complicated policy in every part (economy, travelling, trade, standardization, etc.).

    Today, one German State (e.g. Bavaria) could say: Well, lets make independet! And then!? I think, that's the wrong way... Not for nothing bigger states exist today... the future is Europe, not national states or regional cities - in a political dimension.

    see I was right. ive seen/read enough of this to know it probably wasn't going to happen (polls were as low as 30% like last year)

    it sure was funny watching people outside scotland throw their "relevant" opinion into the mix, while knowing nothing (felt like the us was acting like scotland was syria or some shit at one point)

    1,600,000 Scots still need to be deported to the colonies though. Maybe they should see how well the Australian government is doing at the moment?

    Unfortunately the massive fear mongering from British media, parties and state institutions has shown its effect. But still despite all this, 45% of Scots declared that they don't want to be citizens of the UK, that sends an incredibly strong message to the imperialists in London. Even more encouraging is the result of young voters, 70% voted for freedom among the 16-18 year olds.


    But what the result really shows is that democracy doesn't work. The Scotts should now take up arms and fight their way into independence until the Thames is coloured red with English blood.

    I had a good laugh at Brit premier. "for generations to come, blabla".
    Come on, get serious, if around 45% of people wanted to separate in time of peace, its unlikely that this will go down anytime soon. In fact, id be suprised if there was no vote in the next 15-20 years.

    Sad thing is, a large amount of people will actually be thinking this.
