OK guys, Let's Roll, I'm a newbie, but this is important. If my post is incorrectly done, please forgive me. Look at what this guy from a University in New Orleans is saying.---- When they began to draw intense criticism from passers-by, the director of the Twomey Center for Peace Through Justice at Loyola University in New Orleans decided to intervene. He stepped forward and argued: "I do believe in self-defense," he said. "I do believe that you have to defend your people from attack. But I also don't believe that a policy that is going to set us against nations and lead us to drop bombs on innocent civilians, which is what happens in war, is the response." "The more we heat up the war effort, the more unpatriotic and disloyal those people who have a view against it will appear," he said. "Knowing that, I decided to stand up." ---- Did anyone understand that?? This is what Loyola & Tulane (sue for enviormental racism-Tulane) are teaching our students.

Remember the words of Patrick Henry: "Gentlemen may cry 'Peace, Peace'---but there is no peace"

What guy? I didn't read any there that spoke of the Deity and Lordship of Jesus Christ, that affirmed Him as the sole Savior from sin, or that cited Scripture as the basis for his thinking or even seemed to think Biblically.
What made you say that?

...demonstrators hoping to prevent international violence... I think these folks need to realize they are a day late and a few marbles short. The terrorists unleashed the international violence when they hijacked our jets and flew them into buildings. The cat is out of the bag, so to speak.

There will always be those eager to share the blessings of our country and just as eager to shirk the duties. That's all right. We're a patient, loving people. Just don't stand in the way.

Did anyone understand that?? This is what Loyola & Tulane (sue for enviormental racism-Tulane) are teaching our students. Sure, I understand it. He doens't object to American casualties, and may even relish them. He's another one of the folks who is so filled with self loathing that he wants to destroy us all in order to relieve the contempt he feels for himself.
Which doesn't make it right. We've got to hold the course against such sedition.

It is apparent that cry-babies exist in our land.
Now is the time to ignore these fools.
We must stand as one,And we must stand United!

Welcome. I'm new myself--came aboard 9-11-01 believe it or not.
I am Jesuit educated, but have learned to overcome views like this. He is typical of most Catholic (and for that matter secular) universities.

If we don't respond the radical idiots like Bin Laden will take it as a sign of weakness and continue doing what they do. They called the tune, now they have the piper.

This is a high tech war. A war that America did not want. In my opinion it is the first war that America will take home-front casualties. America has already taken more than 5000. There probably will be many more. <p? We have been told to go home and stay there. Not asked TOLD. This war will only stop when we seek and destroy the perpetrator or surrender. This enemy will never consider your status as a civilian or military before he kills you or your loved ones. Go ahead fight another Vietnam type war. This time however; you will be fighting on your own soil. You will loose and I shall die. I truly believe in that motto "LIVE FREE OR DIE."
