----Mecca and Medina are *this close* to becoming smoking craters.----

At this point, I'm content with the plan of crushing the terrorists and building democracy in the Middle East.

If the Islamofascists pull off something big (and I think you know what I mean by "big") here in America, I want George Bush to see to it that future generations will find the Middle East only in history books.

"Yes, but remember, before 9-11-2001, the intelligence we've been getting was about attacks OVERSEAS, and all along they were preparing to hit us here."

Actually if you read the intelligence FR threads on notebooks confiscated, you see that there was a lot of arguing in the senior ranks over who they should hit..Isreal, England, or US.

And all of this bc Billy didn't take the Cole and first WTC bombing seriously. Suppose its better that we dealt now rather than wait til they had a nuke...silver lining and all that.

In my humble opinion they all already are.

You are correct, of course, for patriots and most Freepers.

My use of the word "we" was intended to extrapolate that suspicion into the general herd of sheeple.

Is there any way we can help hone this down to just France?

This is what the president needs to say outloud to the world. If you keep killing innocent civilians we won't only come after you but we will destroy your holy places first and then move onto your capitals.

And let's not forget the friendly "guest workers" coming across the border from Mexico.

Yes.

Any Hispanic converts to islam should be suspect as well.

We were supposed to have an Al Qaeda attack over July 4th weekend. Zip.

We were supposed to have an Al Qaeda attack over Labor Day weekend. Nada.

We were supposed to have an Al Qaeda attack over Halloween. Nuttin'.

We were supposed to have an Al Qaeda attack on or near election day. Empty.

But THIS time they MEAN it.

"Attention Muslim terrorists, please instruct your female martyrs to store their plastique between their breasts before boarding aircraft."

I've got news for you: if female bombers are going to smuggle plastique onto a plane, it won't be in their bras. And good luck trying to search them there.

The sources said Al Qaida was planning to use Islamic subcontractors to carry out major attacks against civilian targets in Europe

Europe is low hanging fruit. It can't hit back like we can and it's infested with Islamists. Also, we're a lot harder to get at than we were before 9/11. If Al Qaeda wants to demonstrate it can still mount a major attack they could do it in Europe a lot easier than here. Maybe Europe's appeasement strategy hasn't worked and now it's their turn.

Mecca and Medina are *this close* to becoming smoking craters.

Beyond the question of whether that's a good idea, I still stand in amazement that people seriously expect there to be any conceivable circumstance where that would happen, or actually conceive that it's been discussed in the government (I'd bet every penny I own it's not.)
