I like this idea.  \n \nWe can have signs saying, "They asked for it!  They supported the people who killed them"

Could be if the terrorists escalate to neuclar or biological terrorism.  \n\nSubject: Muslims, terrorist and the USA : A different spin on Iraq war.\n\nThis WAR is for REAL!  \nDr. Vernon Chong, Major General, USAF, Retired\n\nTo get out of a difficulty, one usually must go through it.  Our country is now facing the most serious threat to its existence, as we know it, that we have faced in your lifetime and mine (which includes WWII).\n\nThe deadly seriousness is greatly compounded by the fact that there are very few of us who think we can possibly lose this  war and even fewer who realize what losing really means.\n\nFirst, let's examine a few basics:\n\n1. When did the threat to us start?\n\n Many will say September 11, 2001.   \nThe answer as far as the United States is concerned is 1979, 22 years prior to September 2001, with the following attacks on us:\n \n* Iran Embassy Hostages, 1979;\n*   Beirut , Lebanon Embassy 1983;\n*   Beirut , Lebanon Marine Barracks 1983;\n* Lockerbie , Scotland Pan-Am flight to New York 1988;\n* First New York World Trade Center attack 1993;\n* Dhahran , Saudi Arabia Khobar Towers Military complex 1996;\n* Nairobi , Kenya US Embassy 1998;\n* Dares Salaam , Tanzania US Embassy 1998;\n* Aden , Yemen USS Cole 2000;\n* New York World Trade Center 2001;\n* Pentagon 2001.\n\n(Note that during the period from 1981 to 2001 there were 7,581 terrorist attacks worldwide).\n \n\n2. Why were we attacked?\n\nEnvy of our position, our success, and our freedoms.  The attacks happened during the administrations of Presidents Carter, Reagan, Bush 1, Clinton and Bush 2.  We cannot fault either the Republicans or Democrats as there were no provocations by any of the presidents or their immediate predecessor, President Ford.\n\n3. Who were the attackers?\nIn each case, the attacks on the US were carried out by Muslims.\n\n4. What is the Muslim population of the World? \n25%.\n\n5. Isn't the Muslim Religion peaceful? \n\nHopefully, but that is really not material.  There is no doubt that the predominately Christian population of Germany was peaceful, but under the dictatorial leadership of Hitler (who was also Christian), that made no difference.  You either went along with the administration or you were eliminated.  There were 5 to 6 million Christians killed by the Nazis for political reasons (including 7,000 Polish priests).  \n(see http://www.Nazis.testimony.co.uk/7-a.htm)\n\nThus, almost the same number of Christians were killed by the Nazis, as the six million holocaust Jews who were killed by them, and we seldom heard of anything other than the Jewish atrocities.  Although Hitler kept the world focused on the Jews, he had no hesitancy about killing anyone who got in his way of exterminating the Jews or of taking over the world - German, Christian or any others.\n\nSame with the Muslim terrorists.  They focus the world on the US , but kill all in the way -- their own people or the Spanish, French or anyone else. The point here is that just like the peaceful Germans were of no protection to anyone from the Nazis, no matter how many peaceful Muslims there may be, they are no protection for us from the terrorist Muslim leaders and what they are fanatically bent on doing -- by their own pronouncements -- killing all of us "infidels."  I don't blame the peaceful Muslims.  What would you do if the choice was shut up or die?\n\n6. So who are we at war with?\n\nThere is no way we can honestly respond that it is anyone other than the Muslim terrorists.  Trying to be politically correct and avoid verbalizing this conclusion can well be fatal. There is no way to win if you don't clearly recognize and articulate who you are fighting.\n \n\nSo with that background, now to the two major questions:\n\n1. Can we lose this war?\n\n2. What does losing really mean?\n\nIf we are to win, we must clearly answer these two pivotal questions:\n\nWe can definitely lose this war, and as anomalous as it may sou

I did have a dream that there was another terrorist attack on the United States. That wasn't cool either. It was actually pretty scary. Thank goodness they're only dreams!

We can and for some reason we don't want to.  I read a Time Magazine article a couple years back around the anniversary of 9/11 it was a time table of the hunt for Bin Laden.  It noted at the very least 4 times when Osama Bin Laden was in the sites of our fire power and we hedged.  Once he was with a Prince of EAU and we didn't want to risk injuring Arab royalty- do we not have sharpshooters?  for another article that is amazing go to this url:\n\nhttp://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11522484/from/RL.2/\n\n\nOr this one:\n\nhttp://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/11522484/from/RL.2/\n\nor this one:\n\nhttp://www.rushonline.com/visitors/osama.htm

We are not winning the "war against terror" all because we made so many enemies that it is hard to figure out who is the terrorist and who is not.  Bush on the other hand; don't even know who is the terrorist because if he did; we wouldn't be in Iraq at the present moment.  The truth is we are our own terrorist and the reason I said this is because how many times do we hear someone American is blowing up something or trying to blow up something?  How many times do we hear about American killing American which goes on everyday of our lives?  I mean who is the real terrorist to us?  We can't control our own people in the USA so how do we figure that we can control someone else in another country?  No one is really winning the "war against terror or terrorist".

We DID turn the other cheek. \nThe WTC was attacked once before, remember?\nWhat about the Cole? Doesn't that count?\nThen there were the marines killed in their barracks in Lebanon.\n\nHow many times are we supposed to take it? So far all we've done is encourage them to greater acts of terrorism by ignoring them. And if you will notice, they haven't hit us since we started hitting back. Sometimes the schoolyard bully has to get beaten to a pulp before he realizes that it's not a good idea to keep picking on the big guy.

Because then the terrorists would be fighting in OUR streets.

They will grow up to hate the US and become terrorists.  Therefore we have ended terrorism.  See how that works?  Ok, neither does anyone else.

You are correct.  No attacks on U.S. soil since 9/11. \n\nthe libs are already trying to distort your comment.

Hindsight is 20-20, but I'm not sure. We still would have lost American lives so it seems like we would still have gone. However because of how brutal and devastating the attacks were that they hit a target and how they have permanently scared DC and NYC, those things might have had a larger effect on the decision than the acts themselves... OK, I think we would have no matter what. I believe Bush wanted to go to war and unfortunately 9-11 gave him an opportunity to do so without a fight from government or the American people.

it wont happen there will be another staged attack in the U.S then they will impose martial law in which executive orders alow FEMA to take control of america under the scratch of the presidents pen if there is international tension or a financial crisis(the american economy is falling aprt a nobel prize winning ex world bank chief came out and said the U.S economy will be in deep trouble in the next 24 months or even crumble),they have built 800 prisons in which FEMA are in control of and can hold 20.000 people in each yet empty and guarded 24/7.under martial law they will take all the people that publicly are against the government and the people that have already been documented by the state ,then they will draft the people and invade world wide ,you only have to look back into history to realise whats going on if people dont wake up its game over.So no knowone will apologise because bush and his demonic frekshow of people around him will control how this history is told.\n\nthese links are a starting point for anyone to actually look into whats going on:\n\n2 min film makes a powerful point\nhttp://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=-8855754817065491251&q=when+i+did+not+speak+up\n\nterrorstorm:a history of government sponsored terrorism\nhttp://video.google.co.uk/videoplay?docid=786048453686176230&q=terrorstorm

Not yet. There has been a build-up of terrorists and weapons in Mexico for more than a year. The U.S. has done nothing to stop it. seems some people want an attack to happen between now and the 2008 elections.
