harry browne, go to hell, you tratior! This is not the time for this!!

[BurkeanCyclist]

That's it! Let's pre-emptively surrender and do just what the terrorists want us to do! That'll teach 'em!

Peace in our time

(Harry Browne) There are those who will say this article is unpatriotic and un-American

Yes, you quisling traitor. That would be me.

Now get the hell out of my country.

Stand back and ask how this could have happened. Ask how a prosperous country isolated by two oceans could have so embroiled itself in other people's business that someone would want to do us harm. Even sitting in the middle of Europe, Switzerland isn't beset by terrorist attacks, because the Swiss mind their own business.

...When will we learn that without freedom and sanity, there is no reason to be patriotic?

BTT

Not to mention craven, opportunistic, and pathetic.

WHEN WILL HARRY BROWNE LEARN THAT NO ONE GIVES A RIP WHAT AN IDIOT LIKE HIM HAS TO SAY?....Antoher example of why this dip stick cannot get more than .5% of the vote. THOSE TERRORIST WERE COWARDS and so is BROWNE for saying they were not.

Its geography

Geography may make an invasion difficult, but why would it stop terrorist attacks?

This is an old article, written long ago, it is not a reaction to what happened, but a prediction. Harry Browns policies on terrorist activities were developed and written many years ago.

First of all, Harry Brown would have allowed the passengers and pilots to have been able to defend themselves, thus foiling any hijacking attempt, much like the way things were prior to the 1970's, when no americans ever lost a life in the one or 2 very rare ariline hijackings from 1914-1970's.

Furthermore, a libertarian government would not have bombed at least one country each and every year somewhere in the world, year after year, making many enemies bent on revenge.

Lastly, Harry Brown long ago called for assassination of people like bin laden, who are guilty of terrorist activities that kill americans, so this entire incident of yesterdays bombings would be hypothetical anyway, as bin laden would be long dead by now, and the World Trade Center buildings would still be there.

Now get the hell out of my country.

Your country? Funny, I thought there were 280 million of us.

[Moby Grape]

yeah, and those bullets were made at a secret underground plant owned by the Council of Foreign Relations, and they get their orders from a mother ship UFO...YOU BOYS ARE OVER THE EDGE.

[Libloather]

If Harry were President...

More Liberteen claptrap. (You folks really need to stop makin' stuff up...)

...truth is forsaken for propaganda.

And Harry is the Grand Master at it...

Hey, Harry...what did the US do to the Japanese to "provoke their anger?" Harry is right, they not only cut off their oil, but Japan was fighting a major war in China, with over a million troops over there. By cutting off the oil, Japan would have lost a million men, since they would not have been able to supply their troops. Japan had no choice but to restore their oil supplies, or else most certainly take a million causalties. Many leaders in Japan did not want to fight the u.s., since they knew in the long run they would lose to us, but the immediate problem in 1941 was the million Japanese troops on Chinese soil who would be without food or ammunition unless the oil was restored.

There is no question that Roosevelt absolutely knew that the Japanese had no choice but to retaliate and get those american ships out of the way of their oil war supplies.

Yes, my country. My country and the country of the other 279 point 99 million people who think that Harry Browne needs to take Alec Baldwin's seat on that Air France flight outtahere.

Did the Rothchild's process the gold taken from Jewish teeth and other assets like the Swiss did?

[Aquinasfan]

Time to run Harry Browne out of town on the rails, all tarred and feathered in the traditional way we treat scoundrels, swindlers, smugglers, and sops.

And give him a bone to smoke as he's run out of town.

Denials, and refusing to take credit for the attacks IS cowardly.

Do you think that there is some obligation in war to hold a press conference? Where has the attitude in this country come from that you have to be an honorable person in war? We need to kill the bastards, kill their families, kill their friends, kill there government leaders, distroy the infrastructure that is used to support them, tear down the grave markers of their dead and distroy the records and history of what they have done. Only when the very notion that these people even existed is wiped out will we have won. If we don't do that, the events of yesterday will be replayed over and over again as far into the future as you can imagein.

Shut the F up Harry! (And I voted for the man)

Once again Harry Browne hits the nail on the head. Terrorism doesn't happen in a vaccum. We need to ask ourselves a simple question: Why do many Arabs despise America? The answer is bound to make Americans uncomfortable, which is obvious from reading many of the replies to this post.

For years, the United States has been an aggressor nation, especially in the Middle East where U.S-made arms supplied by U.S. taxpayers have been used by Israel to subjugate the Palestinian people. During the past 11 years, the U.S.-led embargo of Iraq has led to the deaths of 500,000 Iraqi children, largely caused by malnutrition and poor medical care.

The United States is widely viewed in the Arab community as an armed bully whose pro-Israeli policies have resulted in the deaths of thousands of innocent Arab civlians. Is it any wonder we are the target of terrorism?

Yesterday's violence was an act of revenge. We brought it on ourselves. It's high time we stopped meddling in the foreign affairs of other countries. And for goodness sake, let's stop acting like a "superpower" thug. As we discovered yesterday, there are people who will bully us back.

When we exact retribution against the terrorists behind yesterday's attack -- as we surely will -- let's make sure we find and strike the right target. We don't need to create any future terrorists.
