Good God...save us from ourselves
I guess you're alright with the real motive: Cutting off our most important supply lines for getting food, water and equipment to our troops...
I guess you're okay with what it can do to our troops - and undermine all they have fought and died for...
I guess you're okay with how many of our troops could loose our lives over this...
You must be, because no one is ignorant enough to believe that these traitors give one fig about what happened in Turkey 90 years ago -
genocide? Where were they while 800,000 men, women and children were being hacked, shot and burned in REAL time while their golden boy, Clinton, was president.
What are they saying about what's going on in Darfur NOW? Oh, right, their boy Carter went there last week and says nothing to see.
You don't fool anyone - even yourself
Well said.
With respect, the War on Terror is a War of Ideas. If we airbrush over the killing of 1.5 Million people by these Islamic fanatics we not only make ourselves accessories to their crime, we are shooting ourselves in the foot.
If the War is successfully framed as Evil America abu-ghraibing its way through innocent Muslim countries, then we have lost.
If the War is correctly framed as a war against the most fanatical proponents of the ideology that has through 14 centuries of history led to the murder and rape of millions in the name of its blood-soaked Prophet, then we will win.
It is those who whitewash Islamic democide who are - I think unwittingly - undermining all that our troops have fought and died for.
Don't let us become a Nation of Hitlers, saying "Who remembers the Armenians?" We must rub the Turk's collective noses in their democide. This war of ideas will never end if we allow Turks - and by extension other Muslims - to stay in their Ataturkic echo chamber.
In passing, a lot of FReepers seem to think that as the Armenian democide is in the history books, then that's ok. I submit that they try finding it in a Turkish history book.
