so which is it?
on: November 15, 2005, 12:52:01 AM
I just read that the 9/11 commission says that the U.S. is not doing enough to protect the country against terrorists and the threat of nuclear war, on the other hand the liberal media is saying we are doing too much and we need to get out. So which is it? fight harder or leave it alone?

pray

we're not just fighting terrorism.  we're fighting a curse on our country.  God started the idea back in deuteronomy.  a curse on the nations food supplies, rain, enemies, etc is different than the blessings promised due to obedience.  i think prophecy is coming to pass, and there is nothing we can do about it now but pray.

one of the soldiers in iraq had a wall of bullet holes left behind him and came out unscathed.  the few incidents like this make me think that prayer is powerful.  but, even if we are killed - the end is not in this  life.

I agree. Prayer fixes everything.

This is the kind of ideas and talk that give many people in the middle east that this is crusade.


 No matter how hard we fight in Iraq, we cannot win the war on terror. The war in Iraq is not a war on terroism.  Iraq has just given terroist the world more incentives and will power to strike, while we havent done a damm thing to stop them besides chase them around in Iraq when they show up. We are not bringing the fight to them, they are bringing the fight to us
Hell, we havent even found in WMDs the whole basis of this war.

I said pray, not blow them to kingdom come until they convert to Christianity. There is a difference. If they are calling this a crusade on our part, they are blinded by their own racism towards us.

Now you finally get it.  8)

We (not just america but the world) are they're enemies, and they will fight to kill each and every one of us, so as they still exist.

Anyone who is not muslim, and many who are, are at risk of falling victim to the actions of extremists. They can not truly be stopped, because they look like us. No matter how much profiling, investigating, and other such War on Terror BS is done, they will never be stopped, and they will never stop themselves.

All we can truly do is pretend they dont exist, or aggressively hunt them. Neither is being done, so they continue to thrive and grown ever more powerful and annoying. Every negative action by the US, or any other country, serves as a catalyst; breeding more and more blood hungry idiots.

Ah do believe we have the technology to find anyone anywhere if we wanted to.

how can we aggressively search for them if we get criticized for doing what we have done?

Stop approaching the situation like a retarded monkey and start approaching it like a snake with a mission.

Simple 8)

We need not put ourselves in the position to be criticized. Make sure that any action taken be agreed with by the many, or keep from their eyes and ears. We need not broadcast everything. Because so far we've given Osama and his terrorist buddies, and Saddam the low down on our intent, and they responded as you would expect. They hid like little b!tches. But if no one talks about, how the hell would they know to run. Why send an entire military to do what possibly a few could have done?

i'm impressed that australia has supposedly managed to catch our terrorists before they went and blew up some nuclear thing, or something...if that's what they were planning on doing in the first place. but suppose they were the real thing and planning the first terrorist attack in oz, and we busted them- thus it is possible to prevent it, to a degree at least...

i have no idea what i'm talking about cos i'm not that focussed on it. i thought it was funny that they had to get their mothers' permission to do the jihad thing

If they catch ten, there are a hundred more waiting for their chance to strike.

They are not grouped together and many even act independently.

Its almost a lost cause.

Bush declaring a war on terror (aside from being propagandist spinning bullsh!t) is like me declaring a war on cockroaches. Ah could scour ever corner of mah house and still one would, inevitably, pop up just often enough to remind meh they are still there 8)
