Do people often deserve to die?

Ya know, like these dumb Afghani people who were too dumb to develop the best weapons in the world, and instead spent their time farming and trying to repel repeated invasions by foreigners. Do they deserve to die for not having been behind the Manhattan project (and Hiroshima), or for not having slaughtered Iraqis, Vietnamese, and others throughout history? Or do they deserve to die because they they don't bow to the same Jeeeezuzz like I do? Ya know, tha Jeeezuz who loves you and me and all the little children and Big Macs and Coke and especially napalm and warships...

Update:

I love it that the exact type of person I aim the question at gets their answer in first, thereby amplifying the very point I make in a way that the best Hollywood scriptwriter couldn't better. Thanks 'Got Cake', you are the personification of all I despise.

Update 2:

Joe Daddy is getting it, very perceptive sir. Shame you can't explain that to 'Got Cake', but then you can't educate sh*t! lol

Update 3:

"How do you spell progressive, SO....."

I live neither in Utopia or La la land- if I did, I wouldn't be able to make the observations I do each day, and offer fair criticism. I do in fact lead by example- I have no guns in my closets, and don't want one. When you say I criticize everyone, I am not sure what you mean, except that you clearly place yourself in the 'criticized' group, so I can only assume you either represent corporate USA which is utterly spoiling the environment and planet for the whole world in relentless pursuit of profit, or that you are part of the so-called 'religious' lobby who, as Dylan so aptly put it...

"...With guns in their hands, and God on their side..."

Either way, you are right- individuals do control themselves, and US citizens therefore control US policy, so please assume your responsibilities and get out there and do something about the problems you all cause. I can't do much about the US from here, and neither can those who suffer most in the world

Update 4:

Consumer Puppet...

At last! Thank you and welcome. I shall indeed check out what you suggest. As for anti-American, is that a strong enough term for the disgust I feel- am so glad to not be one.

    I'm with you man,.,,,, A nation built on Murder and exploitation...

    Prior to WW2 America was expected to be a short lived anomaly. The entire western world along with the developed parts of ASIA regarded us as a nation of rabble and heartless cretins.

    To be fair it does seem a Human characteristic based on the "profit above all else" greed model that has propelled Humanity since Rome at the least.

    The new world attracted the ambitious and the cunning.. that was what really made us special. Here was a vast expanse ready for the taking.. never mind the indigenous (who did war with each other) This was a free for all.. and then once Oil became the liquid Catalyst to that "next step' of wealth and position, it escalated...

    There is no answer here.. nationalism is a fraud, Religion is an underpinning of the capital model.. they are hand in hand to the subjugation of humanity... But because "God Blessed America"

    Hiroshima/Vietnam/Iraq? Were all necessary... to maintain the hierarchy of the greedy few.

    Think of America as the first in a planned franchise.. American style greed and position has become the model that all other nations now fashion themselves on..

    It's way to deep to get into here but the long story short... until we remove "profit" nothing will change. Revolutions replace one plutocracy with another..the isms no longer work,

    Communism, Capitalism, etcetcetc. Infinite Growth vs. Finite resource... thats the real dilemma.

    Google the Venus Project.. the film "Collapse" (seriously it will blow your mind) http://www.disclose.tv/action/viewvideo/50078/Coll...

    There is an alternative to this war based, suffering economy and social structure... but places like Yahoo politics isn't where you will find reason/.

    Rather here is where the front groups plant their spin men.. the NSA and CIA data mine, Yahoo collects sell-able consumer habits info etcetcetc...

    You'll be called an Anti American for what you've written.. but the real question is.. who's calling you that

    No one person deserves to die before their time. However Humans being whom

    and what they are, this dynamic comes into play each and everyday. You as a youthful

    young person or old Idealist who lives in the land of La La, or Utopia, Need to get

    a grasp on what it is you can directly control. And that would be YOU. Lead by example

    not by your mouth. Deeds are the catalyst to success, not rhetoric. You pretty

    much attacked everyone in your rant. Target your anger. And try and change one

    non believer one at a time.

    Very few people on this earth deserve to die, especially those stuck in a feudalistic culture for 2000 years in the past.

    The 3000 Americans killed in the WTC attacks did not deserve to die either.

    thats what certain news organizations will tell you. maybe in a less brutal way but nevertheless. they devalue the life so it becomes a number and antagonize the rebellion against us as if we wouldn't fight against an invasion. its ridiculous and partly based on religion and the fact that they can't speak up

    Nature designed the human race so as that people too dumb to survive deserve the right to destroy themselves. Liberalism has decided that those who are not so self destructive should go on an endless quest to stop them.

    the only people that deserve to die are those that has killed others without having any reason, or that kill for fun. yes there is some that do deserve to die but nothing like what you are saying.

    No one deserves to be killed, not even Y/A trolls. Even when their only purpose is to antagonize people.
