    Terrorist... or not...?

    I make a tiny little distinction, 19 hijackers and their buddies deserve what they get, somebody who had the misfortune to be born in the wrong country does not deserve to die because of the actions of thier countrymen. One big Islamic state, eh? As opposed to going around "civilizing"...

    I love how our solution to terrorism is to beat these twisted bastards at their own game. They kill 3,000 of our civilians, lets kill ten thousand of theirs. Moral high ground? You can't get there from here.

    I don't really know what you are refering to with your slant on my uniform statement. I am an American citizen (something which I have stated before) and I know several people who are either on active duty, are reservists or in ROTC. Since they're my frinds I tend to think very highly of them...

    First, It was Thomas Jefferson who coined the phrase. Second, when he said it, he was refering to the people being vigilent against the government taking too much power at the expense of the rights of citizens. With the creation of the Homeland Security Administration, and other intrusive...

    "I believe, what we have here-is a failure to communicate!"- Cool Hand Luke I was refering to domestic governence within the United States. We may have the most diverse populace on the planet, but the government is for the most part a bunch of older, white men. Given the wording of my...

    The US actually did fund the Taliban directly, in the form of 43 million dollars earmarked for thier anti-opium efforts. In 2000 the Taliban banned the cultivation of poppies for opium production, saying that it was against the Koran. Of course we have no idea where $43 mil of our taxpayer...

    I agree, let's start by kicking out Dumbya. Cheney may be just as bad, but at least he can read a teleprompter.

    We may have all the world's ethnicity represtnted, but it is not proportional to various ethnicity's percentage of the world's population. Niether is the political clout of any ethnic group in the US truly a reflection of their numbers.

    Don't forget the Irgun blowing up the King David Hotel. That's a little after WWII, but it still fits the resistance model.

    They took out the Arabs and put in Nazis, they nuked the wring city, the pres. wasn't supposed to be at the game, and that's just from the trailer. Well, you will be without my company for a few days, I'm going out of town to see some relatives. I'll be back next month, and if this...

    The one nuke can start WWIII stuff. Right outta Sum of All Fears. (book, I refuse to see that sellout movie) But then again, on 9/11/01 I thought we were living the last chapter of Debt of Honor.

    OT- It's my understanding that Hitler lost himself the battle of Britan when he turned the bombers loose on the cities, rather than finishing off the RAF. While London was burning, the factories were churning out Spitfires and Hurricanes, flight schools were graduating pilots. The RAF got the...

    Now, you could have stopped after the free speech part, that would have been quite sufficient. I'm puzzeled as to why you felt the need to take the moral high ground. (Especially because there is no moral high ground.) It's also a bit of a stretch to compare Samurai with the guy launching...
