Quoted message said:Ben A. Green said:Was 9/11 a special effect?
Did the Madrid subway not blow up?
Did the Bali nightclub stage a mirage?
Did our invading Iraq have [censored] to do with any of that?
Has our government's complete and utter inability to admit to the fact
that the war was a sham in the first place, or theier dealing with
anyone who dares criticize it, relate to the paragraph below?

Was the war the right thing to do no, but it would be a mistake to admit it
so.
That doesn't make any sense. Admitting a mistake is statemanship, not
making the mistake in the first place is leadership. Having an elected
commander in chief who is completely lacking both of these qualities
and then re-electing him will make you all look like complete idiots.
Quoted message said:I want other countries scared [censored] now that we have done it.
Every country in the world is scared [censored] about where the US is
heading. Especially those countries that have been historically
friendly to the US and who value democracy.
I want
Quoted message said:want Iran and others to think twice about doing something.
And by threatening them you are giving their leadership all the
reasons they need to arm themselves to the teeth and take a mititary
stance. They then can apply the same logic and approach to governing
that the above quote refers to.
I say pull out
Quoted message said:immediately and target Iran or Syria. It is obvious that more is needed ie
Israel does. Go in and get out and then go in and get out. You have to take
out the people doing it ie war and not just pure talk like Kerry.
Pull out how? Do you not grasp the reality that the US is now mired in
Iraq and is almost militarily defensely against any other country or
entity that may attack? The war on terrorism has ground to a very slow
pace because you are stuck defending the oil fields of Iraq and the
new oil pipeline being built in afghanistan. Meanwhile the Saudis who
financed 911 and Bush's oil cronies are getting rich from the
instability-fed high oil prices.
Quoted message said:No terrorists in the world is afraid of Kerry and if he wins then he must
show that he can kick ass. He might be like Bush who said that he was not
into country building before he was elected and then goes nation building.
The Saudi terrorists who financed and committed 911 are buddies of
Bush's. How are they afraid of him when they share the same financial
gains?
