Flash Back - Post 911 John Kerry Blamed US Insensitivity for Attacks

Fox News Sunday | 9-16-01 | John Kerry

[tallhappy]

As front runner Kerry needs to be asked in high profile interviews what he meant. Does he really still say that our policies that he claims alienated people contributed to the 911 attacks?

[eyespysomething]

Would those be Clinton/Democratic policies?

[Ukiapah Heep]

"Why do they hate us?" megasobs.

[Peach]

What a good find on Kerry.

Howlin - you may want to use your ping list for this one.

[INSENSITIVE GUY]

Being "sensitive" is okay if your half a man!America has been too sensitive and that is what has caused this problem.Being "sensitive" is a sign of weakness and our enemies percieved this,thus the attacks.

And there are many of us who feel that we have not been doing enough or sensitive enough to the way in which we are perceived by many countries.

So he's saying that the people on those airplanes, and the folks working in the World Trade Center & Pentagon were not sensitive enough? They didn't listen enough? They weren't kind enough? Kerry's comments seem like a horrible thing to say about these people.

I'm glad you posted this. It's a horrible thing to read, but with Kerry as the front runner we can't turn away from his abhorant words.

Kerry's a typical UN-clinging apologist. He holds America totally responsible for the worlds perceptions but doesn't require any accountability to the those people in the world who hate American in regard to their own role and choices they make in their determining their "perceptions" and ideas about America.

Kerry has the unfortunate juvenile desire for everybody to "like" him. He extends that dangerous attitude toward America. He evidently thinks that if enough "meaningful dialogue" can just occur between fanatical murderous terrorists and us, then we will convince them to give up their hatred and like us.

Kerry and his ilk are a danger to freedom-loving people everywhere. And the fool doesn't even realize it!

Lets try that again. He holds America totally responsible for the worlds perceptions but doesn't require any accountability of those people in the world who hate America regarding their own role and the choices they make in determining their "perceptions", ideas and hatred about America.

Kerry -- speaks loudly and carries a small stick.

[self_evident]

"Why do they hate us?"

We will have won the war on terror when we see that headline.... in Saudi Arabia, Iran, and Egypt.

That about sums it up

BTTT

[My2Cents]

The Democrats and the left (...but I repeat myself) reflexively blame America first whenever something tragic happens in the world. Blame America first!...and they wonder why we question their patriotism.

[livius]

to be much more proactive, much more thoughtful and much more sensitive to the needs of the rest of this planet.

Well, why don't we ask the Muslims to be more sensitive to our needs (not to be killed, for example)? Oh, I guess they're different...my mistake.

Kerry is going to need a big Barf Alert throughout his entire campaign.

[My2Cents]

Kerry's a typical UN-clinging apologist.

Perhaps he should be running for Secty. General of the United Nations, not President of the United States.

BTW, whenever you hear Kerry refer to "America's allies," insert "France" right there.

[Jorge]

This is bad for Kerry.

[afraidfortherepublic]

I don't hate many people, but I just hate people who try to blame 9/11 on the US. 9/11 was perpetrated by a bunch of criminal sickos, and we should never forget it. And we should not let the Kerry's of the world try to shift the blame to the US.

We were ATTACKED, Senator Kerry. At least "W" understands that fact and knows what to do about it. "W" has more leadership in his little fingernail than Sen. Kerry and all his whining compatriots have in their whole beings.

[afraidfortherepublic]

And, furthermore, the Islamic population doesn't understand our mea culpas. They only understand a show of strength. Witness Gadaffi!
