In reply to the discussion: CZECH REPUBLIC WOULD LIKE TO REMIND AMERICA BOMBING SUSPECTS ARE NOT FROM THERE [View all]whathehell
(29,111 posts)53. You imagine the Bush Administration invaded Iraq because they couldn't read a map, LOL?
and you think that the Czechs are doing the same?
Sorry, but the invasion of Iraq was a cynical move by that administration that had nothing
to do with a lack of geographic skills and I don't think that you or the Czech prime minister
should be drawing inferences about upcoming government policy on the basis of some chatter on the social media.
Anyone doing that has their own issues with cluelessness.

It's a false equivalency to equate 313 million who did not attack Sikhs with the very few who did.

After what happened (initially) to the Taliban, it is quite interesting to see the distancing.
