funny how the video shows all of the things america has done, but none of the things that have been done to us..
If your really talking about blowback, and historical context, the LEAST you could do is show both sides. you can argue there is blowback from both sides if you don't put it into context..
They don't. They hear one disgruntled ex-cia agent say something about blowback and they run with it, squeezing it for everything they got.
You evidently don't understand the concept of blowback. What they've done to us is a direct result of our involvement over there. Did you even watch the video? We didn't attack them because they attacked us first. They attacked us because we've been meddling in their foreign affairs for many many decades.
You replied 3 minutes after the video was posted. The video is 13 minutes long. Of course it didn't sum up jack shit if you watched 3 minutes of it (or didn't watch any of it at all).

Everyday. Don't care about the video itself. Just the message and point. It's all history. Not sure what part of that is so hard to understand for some of you.
Ok . Well i guess i thought it sucked because it seemed to "pop" or "hip" .... Catchy music with flashing pictures, then a speech by a silent movie actor ( ironic). So the point gets distracted in all of the flashiness.
This. And the speech from the great dictator I find is better left alone. All the remixes I've seen just don't have the same effect to me. I know that's not all the video was but I just thought I should mention it if you haven't seen the original.

Man I am starting to get sick of the islamaphobes. Shiria Law is never coming to the USA. Maybe in certain house holds but not on any scale larger then that. Your worried about a country thats militarily is set up for defense. They don't have the means to invade any country other then bordering ones. I don't trust videos with subtitles. How do I know they are really saying that? Or its not being taken out of context?
