I like to think we are separate nations, with often different goals. You seem to have a hard time with that one and in typical American fashion can't see the Canadian view. My ideas on this subject aren't 'funny', you just have a hard time grasping them. Maybe I'm not clear enough, but I've been trying to lead you through the maze.
Your second paragraph shows your hate and you've been brainwashed and there is no point in continuing this conversation.

Yep, so the best course of action would to get of of there. Seems to me you guys are so hell-bent on blaming the West for everything that happens to us. As of right now Canada and the US are in the same boat. Both countries have either been threatened by terrorist attacks, or have actually been attacked.
Quickest way to solve the problem, since we can't win the war in Iraq or Afghanistan? Get out of there, but of course you don't support that, because, well, I really don't know. We breed these monsters, right? Well by leaving the Middle East we would stop that action, stop all the hate and murderous rage they have for us and our way of life. Or not?
Thing is, constantly blaming ourselves for what is going wrong isn't exactly gettin' to the root of the problem. These people were born Canadian citizens, have probably lived their whole life here in Canada. Therefore they are subject to the same education, medical aid and other needs that Canada provides to its citizens. Yet, they still wanted to kill other Canadian citizens? I really don't understand from which ass you're pulling these assumptions that Canadian civilians where put into harms way when the Liberals sent troops into Afghanistan. Thing is, during the Liberal reign, to our knowledge, there was no immediate threat to the Canadian people.
Harper hasn't changed his stance on Afghanistan, outside from what the Liberals had. We still have the same mindset that we had back then, when this War on Terror got started. Why, now the sudden impluse to blame Canada for our involvement in Afghanistan, that by your words has put the people of Toronto in danger(God knows what else these idiots have planned) when we have been in Afghanistan since the last months of 2001. Thats 5 years, give or take a few months.
Hell, there are 100's of terrorist organizations that would gladly attack the West; do you imply that all of those would do it, simply based on our involvement in Afghanistan?
