AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around the perception of freedom of speech in America and the narrative surrounding U.S. military actions, particularly in Iraq. It argues that individuals are often misled by mainstream media and government narratives, suggesting that alternative viewpoints, such as those from the Mujahedeen, offer insights into what is allegedly being concealed by American and British authorities. The conversation critiques the notion that U.S. media is transparent, asserting that it reports on violence in Iraq but may not provide a complete picture. Additionally, it challenges the idea that the American public blindly follows political leaders like Bush and Blair, highlighting widespread disapproval of the Iraq War. The thread concludes with a comparison between the original poster's views and those of George W. Bush, suggesting a similarity in their approaches to framing narratives. The discussion ultimately emphasizes the need for individuals to seek out diverse perspectives to uncover the truth.

America is always alleged freedom of speech. America is always claimed raging war was only done to free the world. America’s media always claimed showing the truth.
You know what?!
You’ve always been deceived, and you will remain deceived until you learn what the other side’s views are.
We cannot bring you everything to your door steps, you have to step up to the plate and look for the truth.
However, we can tell you that the Mujahedeen have opened the door for you to learn what the American and British governments are trying to hide away from you.

Don’t be scared, the page is not going to blow up on you. You can either think with your right mind, or keep Bush and Blair thinking for you, it’s your choice.

Frankly, it seems to me that you are the deceived one. First of all, the site your link points to is nothing but a listing of the violence going on in Iraq. Putting a religious spin on it and glorifying it does nothing to change the fact that it is essentially the same reporting the same facts that our American media outlets report. Do you honestly believe that our media doesn't report on the bombings that happen over there? If so, you're sorely mistaken. A quick Google News search on "Iraqi violence" turned up 29,000 results.

Secondly, have you really deluded yourself into believing that we let Bush and Blair think for us? The Iraqi War is massively unpopular in both the US and the UK, and Bush and Blair are at some of the worst approval ratings in their respective terms. But I guess it's easier to hate America if you believe that all 300 million Americans support the president.

On a side note, as I typed out "religious spin and glorifying it," do you know what I realized? You are exactly like George W. Bush. He does the exact same thing. Granted, he comes at it from a different religion and different angle, but the basic principle is still the same.

Every day we learn new things. Sometimes it's just a small fact or realization. No matter how trivial or random, let's start recording our daily lessons. Please start off with "Today I learned". Keep commentary to a minimum and just LIKE posts. I'll start! Today I learned that you clean up a white hat by spraying some cleaner with bleach on it (rinse before putting it back on your head!)
