He also HATES the US and has frequently and repeatedly wished DEATH on the country and its' citizens, therefore all of his opinions are as trustworthy as George Bush talking about WMD's.
That's a non sequitur. My feelings vis a vis the US do not invalidate my analysis. If an idea is sound, it doesn't matter if Satan himself came up with it. The comparison to GWB and WMD isn't sound either: GWB is a fool and a liar, while I am neither.
Second, just to set the record straight, I have not and do not wish death on the USA nor its citizens. What I do wish is:
* That the US loses its position of disproportionate economic and military power in the world. This is because the US has shown that it cannot use the power it has in a responsible manner. (In particular, the US re-elected GWB; this suggests to me that GWB was not a fluke but a product of the system, and therefore it's quite likely that without structural change the system will produce another GWB, sooner rather than later.)
* That the US political system be reformed so that it will again be capable of playing a constructive role in world politics.
However, and this is where I believe you're getting confused, I believe that to achieve these goals, the hold of the military-industrial complex on the US political system has to be broken; for that to happen, the culture of militarism that it has so effectively fostered must be discredited, and for *that* to happen, the US must be soundly defeated militarily. I'm not sure the current drip-drip-drip of casualties and erosion of capabilities is a sufficient shock to the system; therefore, I'm hoping the US attacks Iran and loses something like a carrier group in the process. Unfortunately this does involve a lot of US military personnel dying, but hey, that's what they're paid for, no?
So take what you will and remember that as he himself pointed out, the discussion by experts' in a minor game forum is somewhat suspect to begin with.
Indeed.
