OSAMA BIN LADEN DEAD

--- Quote from: Eternauta ---Bin Laden's dead was in my opinion just to make Obama look like a hero in shining armor, but doesn't really add much to USA's victory in the war on terrorism ...

Yep, Obama is trying to get as much credit for killing Bin Laden as he can so that his approval rating goes up for 2012 election. Simple politics. :>

So we trained your army and that somehow relates to your military being like hitler? I don't see the connection in any way shape or form. Osama being liked hitler was just to make a point, it's our most recent struggle and one of the few of this generation, as hitler and the third reich was the struggle of that generation. It doesn't require you to support him being equated to a US hitler due to the fact your not from the US. Ask US citizens who is/was the worst person in the world and Osama will probably come up more often than Hitler due to it being recent.

Osama kills Americans -> Osama is like Hitler for the USA
USA trains and encourages our military to kill Argentineans -> USA/the military Junta is like Hitler for Argentina

Hmm I'm not sure I got your point. If you are just saying Osama is like Hitler for the Americans only (that is, from the avarage American's point of view), because of the American deaths, then I can say I understand you, which of course doesn't mean I agree. Also, I'd like the Americans to realize how much their country makes and has made other countries suffer, for example mine. But it seems that talking about the history of my country automatically makes me a "butthurt hippie".

You are completely right about that. But it's sad because, in my opinion, it means Americans don't care about history and only care about themselves.
Ganado:
Eternauta, I'm not saying you are wrong or right; but can you give specific examples of how the US has made Argentina suffer? You seem to be using the US as a scapegoat.
Slaver Snipe:
Apparently Americans are the root of all argentina's problem Abe, i thought you knew that ::) Apparently we destroyed their economy, not themselves, we made their governments evil etc etc.
