Bush first says The War on Terror is not directly aimed at one person, or one country, but then he recently compares Osama to Hitler, which sort of says to me that it IS about just one person. What do you think? I don't think I completely understand this stuff.

Because he couldn't pick up a tranny at a gay bar?

Sure seems like it. He's got this fixation on trannies and homosexuals. Maybe because he's scared of his own sexuality?

Another Bush attack to justify a war or a total failure of Bush's national security plan, meaning it what all BS in the first place.

Terrorism is organized violence to political ends; to subdue people by fear of murder or violence. So Al Quaida, Hamas, Hezbollah, Red Army in Germany, Red Brigades in Italy…that seems clear. The same goes for the Sadam- and the Taliban regime.
But what about the bombing of Dresden, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, or later in the Iraq war?
The Dutch resistance fighters were dubbed terrorists by the Germans, but were honoured by the Dutch government after the war. Taliban were resistance fighters when the Russians invaded Afghanistan (and were helped by the USA). Didn’t the USA by invading Afghanistan make the Taliban resistance fighters again? Doesn’t Israel by occupying territory that has not be assigned to them by the UN, make Hamas resistance fighters?
Isn’t the intention to destroy the Taliban and Hezbollah very similar to Hitler’s “Endlösung”?

The mere fact that marijuana is illegal while tobacco and alcohol aren't doesn't suffice for the purpose of this question. I'm wondering why marijuana is illegal but tobacco and alcohol aren't when tobacco and alcohol cause so much grief and havoc.

Perhaps a related issue: Is it true that a significant reason marijuana is illegal in the U.S. is because the paper lobby was stronger than the hemp lobby?

When detonating a car bomb next to a school bus full of Iraqi children, does the chant of "Allah is greatest" improve the kill total? Have there been any studies in this subject?

Lots of people are saying a drone or missle hit the pentagon and not a passenger jet. True, they never did find any bodies, or much of anything relating to a passenger jet. Just curious to hear ideas on what may have happened to those people aboard flight 77. Where did they go?

Is the government expected to work without pay if people are expected to serve in the military even without pay?
If the government can break a GI bill contractural payment level can an enlisted break military contracts?
When I got out of the military the Houses voted and passed decreasing our GI bill contracturally promised GI bill payments for completing our term of service Honorably and for paying into the system. They claimed it was for economic reasons. That year they did not vote down their automatic 3 percent pay increase either. If the government can do this with Reservists can an enlisted person just cancel a military contract without any consequences also. We eventually got it back with more as the troops for the war in Kuwait was supplied mainly with GI bill students. After the war because of the money Kuwait gave the government they gave part of it to the GI bill students such that there was a slight increase in the original contracturally promised amount. I was also told that there is not any such thing as slavery in the U.S. So why did people who decided to get out of the military have to go to Canada?
Your question is flawed by the assumption that existing benefits are "contractual." There is no contract. Quite some time ago the Supreme Court ruled that the obligation to serve exists independently of the government's obligation to even pay salaries. You might have joined up with that expectation, but that does not make it a contract.
when under contract an enlisted or officer corp cannot legally sue for redress from the government and after they wont release their copies to you of your 201 file makeing a law suit harder they delayed my enlistment after the vietnam era benefits so i wouldnt get the college and medical
I would prefer not to have to kill at all, but hey! If I've got to do it, I'd rather be paid for it. However, my sense of duty and honor is above mere pay.
