"I did NOT post any paranoid comments saying that we were going to be overwhelmed in the USA by the radical/fundamentalist/terrorist/muslims. "


In fairness to you and this thread, I retract that statement and apologize for calling you "Chicken Little". I was wrong.


"There are 1,500,000,000 muslims in the world,"

Most of which are harmless.


".. not just a few hundred ragheads. They used "OUR" planes and attacked us, AND they sure must have boats to use, or was the attack on the USS Cole, and the attack 2 weeks ago on the Oil Platform, just my imagination?? "


The attack on the Cole was made by suicide morons on a RUBBER LIFE RAFT. The oil platform attack was made by a jon boat. Why a single sailor on the Cole didn't open fire on that bathtub of a boat is something I've never understood, but an M-16 would've stopped that attack. Sorry, but neither of these attacks frightens me.


"I'm not saying that our Military can not defeat them, but your posts show an incredible lack of respect for a very, very dangerous evil enemy......."


dangerous, yes. Technical? No. Numerous? No. Intelligent? No. Ass Backwards? Yes.


"Can we defeat them?? Yes !! "

Once more, we're in agreement.

"Will it be easy?? No !! "

Not if we continue to withdraw from the Fallujahs of this conflict.


"And if you think it will be easy, you must still believe in the Tooth Fairy !!"

Implying that I have all my original teeth - thanks!


Serious question, George - what do you propose we do to win this WoT? Can we kill enough Muslims to actually win, or would that only create more Muslime terrorists? We've certainly seen that killing lots of 'em (30,000+ so far in the WoT) hasn't seemed to stop the creation of terrorists. So what do we do - kill ALL of them? Is that even possible? I'm not grilling you personally here - I just don't know what course of action to take that would ultimately result in a Final Solution to this conflict - do you?

P.S. You can't nuke all of 'em.

BTW George, there's something I forgot to mention earlier:

"Am I sorry for the "alleged" Iraqi prisoner abuses?? NO!! I'm only sorry that the story and the photos leaked out. "


I am in complete agreement. I still don't give a damn about the Iraqi people or their freedom. I want to know which military personnel leaked this crap to a slobbering liberal press to get this whole sh*t sandwich made in the first place? People here want to blame the libbie press, which is fine, but remember that one of our troops either idiotically allowed the press to take the pics or leaked the pics to them.

how shameful the world has become in that we cant love one another and care for others. God created all people equally. You asked the question, who cares, well I can tell you that if nobody else in the world cares, God does. I don't think we are wasting our time in trying to help iraq become a better place. I truly hope you can one day realize how much God loves ALL His children, no matter the color, race, or origin. God loves us all and He loves you to.

there shouldnt have been any leakage from the beginning because the abuse should have never happened in the first place. abusing and humilating those prisoners was wrong and only makes us americans look the same as all the other evil nations around us. which gets you closer to someone, abusing them or loving them?

What I think and feel matters not at all on issues as large as Iraq. I'd rather focus on raising my children and being a good husband for my wife and provider for my family, for those are the only few things I can really make a difference at.

I disagree. We all can make a difference in the world, with the problems in iraq, the same sex marriages, the homeless, etc. We can make the difference but not by ourselves, We have to depend upon God to help us. Look what a difference Jesus made. He gave His life that we could have life and have it more abundantly. If we all pulled together and brought prayer back into our lives, we could see miracles take place.
I'm glad though that you are trying to be a good husband, father and provider but dont sell yourself short by saying thats the few things that you can do.

You all seem to have forgotten the U.S. Constitution is your ramblings. If we start proposing loyalty tests for immagrants based on religion we would be defiling one of the most sacred premisses of the bill of rights. You all are frightening whats next expel all non-christian from America turn us into a fundamental theocracy.

I would reply to your pandering, kiss-ass, muslim sympathizing post, but it is so poorly written, and so poorly reasoned, I haven't the time........

Unbelievable, isn't it???
Even more unbelievable is the reaction of the left wing nuts, who think that putting a pair of "panty hose" on a terrorist, is somehow worse than a "beheading". The terrorists are not human. They need to be exterminated like the insects they are. And, quite frankly, I don't give a damn how we do it. I only care the we do!!

TO HELL WITH THEM ALL !!
