Alright liberals: thwarted terror plan in London...are you grateful yet?

Question

Are you grateful that the Bush administration has pushed so hard on the war on terror? Because you should be warming up to the idea by now.....

I know the terrorists were stopped by the British....but would the majority of the world be involved in the war on terror with out G-dub?

thank you "v"--you are a breath of fresh air.

Answer 1

loubean, now maybe you can tell, Libs want death and destruction, so they can blame the Conservatives, they don't want things to go right....and it was on the news.....everyone that has been interviewed in Britain has stated that we helped thanks to our patriot act...we told them well calls were going, and what was being said.....I am grateful....and very happy that because of this...many thousands more of the innocent won't die...as long as things go good, they don't have a chance to get the power back....

Answer 2

Ok people, what she is trying to say is that some if not all of the terrorists busted in the uk are strongly considered to be affiliated with al-qaeda, you know... the ones the bush administration is fighting against, although bush and recent events in the uk may not be directly connected the point is this: that liberals want us to get out of iraq and move on with our own day to day bullcrap all the while ignoring the fact that terrorists (in general) are still plotting horrible acts such as mass murders, they're still an immense threat (to the uk & the us) and that if it were not for the administration's efforts they would be much stronger (in general) than they are now. If you don't see the connection there then stop looking it's simply beyond you...

Answer 3

I can't understand your wanting to pat the Bush Administration on the back for what happened in Britain.

At least 24 people, said to be mainly British-born Muslims some of Pakistani descent, were arrested in night-time police raids on modest-seeming homes as far apart as east London’s Walthamstow District, High Wycombe, west of the capital and Birmingham in the Midlands. By early evening, none of the detainees had been identified by name.

I think it's interesting that all of the powers that be were able to fine tune so quickly inspections of passengers and lists of objectionable items that can and can't be carried, and yet they were able to stage pre-emptive raids on these people's homes and the only thing printed are the buzz words. No names, no photos, no nothing.

Most interesting will be if they ever prosecute anyone for this and whether they'll just be let go in three weeks when everybody's attention is elsewhere.

Answer 4

I am grateful to the British government for doing their job- nothing more, nothing less. I don't recall news reports of Bush being there when they raided the apartment, or having a hand in it in any way, but I don't watch FOX news, so I wouldn't know...

The brits are fighting their own "war on terror". Remember the London bombings? Bush's attention WAS on the "war on terra" until Iraq came along. Now the hunt for bin Laden has been put on a back burner, so to speak.

Answer 5

if he was doing his job in the war on terror... there wouldn't be any attacks to thwart... it's been five years and they are still attacking...

we've only attacked one branch (Afghanistan) of al-qudea... they clearly have Saudi, Pakistani, Sudanese and Indonesian branches... I don't trust those countries to clean it up on their own...

I'VE NEVER HEARD ANYONE SPEAK AGAINST THE WAR ON TERROR... the war in Iraq isn't really a part of the war on terror...

v: I want to focus on al-Queda... that means more than 20,000 troops in afghanistan... that's all we have... that's how big of a priority it is for Bush...

Answer 6

Did I miss something I thought thy stop them over there in London,what Did Bush have to do wish this

Answer 7

WHAT THE HELL DOES THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION HAVE TO DO WITH ENGLAND!!!! Idiot, what war on terror, is Osama Bin Laden dead or captured? No, in fact Bush "doesn't even think about him that much anymore." Get your facts straight.

Answer 8

I haven't heard any notion that this was at all helped by the Untied States. All I've heard is that Scotland Yard in Britain foiled this plot.

Answer 9

My father thinks this is going to happen, too, but nuts are not convinced by logical and truth. They find a way to denounce it. Either they'll ignore it or they claim Bush, though they think he's dumb, master-minded the whole thing. Watch.

Answer 10

No. The ends don't justify the means.

Bush willfully violates the Constitution and federal law whenever it suits him. There's no justification for that.

Especially since everything that US security forces have done could have been done within the law. Bush just doesn't care about the law. So, he gets no credit for violating the law.

And Bush doesn't get any credit for what the British security forces did.

Answer 11

Grateful for...?

...his failure to anticipate and prevent 9/11? His failure to eliminate Bin Laden? His near-psychotic obsession with "getting" Sadaam? His subversion of the US Constitution? His domestic spying program? His EVERY "child left behind" policies? His serving up the environment to its destroyers, like a fatted lamb? His lies, his stupidity, his bigotry, his thirst for oil and blood, his approval of torture,
his theft of the Presidency...?

Ah, let me think.

Perhaps..."grateful"...isn't quite the appropriate word...

Y'think?
