What the fuck, seriously. I thought we were fighting them over there so we didn't have to face them here. Oh wait, that isn't working either....

| They were here before and until we take much more dramatic immigration steps, they will always be here. Don't forget Clinton when you make posts like this also. better yet just put the blame on all presidents and forget about congress sending up tougher immigration bills. | ||||

| Well, the American people have been losing their stomach for the "War On Terror" so we needed another almost-attacked scenario. How convenient. And for all you that think I'm a conspiracy theorist, it's no "theory" that Bin Laden was a bogeyman that was created by and belongs to the CIA. All this so-called ter'rism is just more government propoganda to keep us under their control, and accept more controls in the future. If I really wanted to blow up fuel storage tanks, I could do it myself, especially if i wasn't worried about getting caught or killed (doin' it for Allah and the virgins, right?). | ||||

The conservative movement was in direct relation to the neoconservative movement. It is when these guys started to impliment their 'project for a new american century'.
Open your eyes man. Blowback is a reality. Our policy over the last 50+ years has led to attacks in Lebanon, Libya, USS Cole, 9/11, etc. Look at why they attack us, their reasons. | ||||

| Well, bikinis...and forcefully removing leaders, sanctions that had innocent people dying from it, taking some land and creating Israel, utilizing their holy land for other military operations, trying to convert them to a more secular country against their will, occupying territory, and other stuff like that. If we had a non-intervention foreign policy none of that would have taken place and I would be willing to guarentee that the threat and frequency of terrorist tactics would not be anywhere near what they are today. That single issue alone might actually prompt me to vote for Ron Paul. He explains it well right here. At the end of the video he also discusses nuclear weapons, and the comments at the end would be great to address in the threads about militarization and missile defense.

The Arabs that bin laden worked with, hated the US already. They attack Americans already.

| How the CIA trained Osama bin Laden Bin Laden, Iran, and the KLA Any way you slice it, here's the deal. Muslims kill people. They've been killing each other since their religion was invented. They'll keep killing each other. If we pee in their pot, they'll try to kill us too. The CIA trained the freedom fighters to fight the Soviets, because the Soviets were deemed the larger threat AT THE TIME. It was a short-sighted policy that was a stepping stone to 9/11 . There's always going to be an enemy to fight, if we want to go overseas and fight it. The real question is: why? Why should we prop up Iraq? They're going to turn against us in a decade or three anyway. The best solution is to secure our borders and feed our own children, and let the Muslims kill each other. We stir the pot, and now they want to come kill us as well. It should be obvious that this JFK thing is just another excercise in keeping the populace focused on what they want us to be. Prick us with a little terror threat, and then numb us down with a little Paris Hilton in jail. | ||||

| Christians have killed more people in the history of their church than Muslims have in the history of their's, I'd be willing to bet.

| From the direction this thread is going, it is evident that the crusades are over, or at least that Christians aren't killing nearly enough. I'm waiting for Wal-Marts and abortion clinics to get blown up daily by Christians, to reflect the Religion of Peace folk over in the middle east blowing up things. | ||||
