How many MORE 9/11's will be needed for America to really want to fight Islamic fascists BEFORE they kill us?

Answer 1

I don't know--I keep waiting for the war on terror to start. Guess we'll have to finish in Iraq first, whenever we figure out what we are doing there.

If you are one of the silly americans with the kill 'em all mentality, you are as bad as they are. Even if you aren't dropping bombs yourself, encouraging genocide only makes the suicide bombers right! You didn't say kill all the arabs--but if you are thinking it, think again. Those are the kind of thoughts the nutcases responsible for 9-11 think--don't be one of them.

I understand that Bush says it and it becomes the phrase of the week, but come on--Islamic fascists--please look up fascism in a dictionary or history book (nevermind, John S did that for you) and quit using a phrase that is so inaccurate.

Besides, even if they hijacked a whole air force base--no one is taking over America. Get real! They won't kill us all--they don't have the power. All they can do is hit us once in a while to remind us they are there.

Answer 2

There is no way that we could ever really go after them with the military. There are to many innocent people that would be killed.
We are in another Viet Nam right now.
America is to politically correct to really fight a war, Why I do not know, the whole world already hates us so what would we have to loose if we just went over and really did the job the right way?

Answer 3

Probably a lot more.
America is more concerned about who the next American Idol is, than they are as to who their next president is.
And since that is the case, it's no surprise that we (from the federal, the state, the local governments to each of us) are not ready to wake up from our false sense of security.

Answer 4

We can't fight the one we went after to begin with. I though the American forces were the best in the world. NO.

Answer 5

We are the fascists:

14 characteristics of fascism

1. Powerful and Continuing Nationalism - Fascist regimes tend to make constant use of patriotic mottos, slogans, symbols, songs, and other paraphernalia. Flags are seen everywhere, as are flag symbols on clothing and in public displays.
2. Disdain for the Recognition of Human Rights - Because of fear of enemies and the need for security, the people in fascist regimes are persuaded that human rights can be ignored in certain cases because of "need." The people tend to look the other way or even approve of torture, summary executions, assassinations, long incarcerations of prisoners, etc.
3. Identification of Enemies/Scapegoats as a Unifying Cause - The people are rallied into a unifying patriotic frenzy over the need to eliminate a perceived common threat or foe: racial , ethnic or religious minorities; liberals; communists; socialists, terrorists, etc.

4. Supremacy of the Military - Even when there are widespread domestic problems, the military is given a disproportionate amount of government funding, and the domestic agenda is neglected. Soldiers and military service are glamorized.
5. Rampant Sexism - The governments of fascist nations tend to be almost exclusively male-dominated. Under fascist regimes, traditional gender roles are made more rigid. Divorce, abortion and homosexuality are suppressed and the state is represented as the ultimate guardian of the family institution.
6. Controlled Mass Media - Sometimes to media is directly controlled by the government, but in other cases, the media is indirectly controlled by government regulation, or sympathetic media spokespeople and executives. Censorship, especially in war time, is very common.
7. Obsession with National Security - Fear is used as a motivational tool by the government over the masses.
8. Religion and Government are Intertwined - Governments in fascist nations tend to use the most common religion in the nation as a tool to manipulate public opinion. Religious rhetoric and terminology is common from government leaders, even when the major tenets of the religion are diametrically opposed
to the government's policies or actions.
9. Corporate Power is Protected - The industrial and business aristocracy of a fascist nation often are the ones who put the government leaders into power, creating a mutually beneficial business/government relationship and power elite.
10. Labor Power is Suppressed - Because the organizing power of labor is the only real threat to a fascist government, labor unions are either eliminated entirely, or are severely suppressed.
11. Disdain for Intellectuals and the Arts - Fascist nations tend to promote and tolerate open hostility to higher education, and academia. It is not uncommon for professors and other academics to be censored or even arrested. Free expression in the arts and letters is openly attacked.
12. Obsession with Crime and Punishment - Under fascist regimes, the police are given almost limitless power to enforce laws. The people are often willing to overlook police abuses and even forego civil liberties in the name of patriotism. There is often a national police force with virtually unlimited power in fascist nations.
13. Rampant Cronyism and Corruption - Fascist regimes almost always are governed by groups of friends and associates who appoint each other to government positions and use governmental power and authority to protect their friends from accountability. It is not uncommon in fascist regimes for national resources and even treasures to be appropriated or even outright stolen by government leaders.
14. Fraudulent Elections - Sometimes elections in fascist nations are a complete sham. Other times elections are manipulated by smear campaigns against or even assassination of opposition candidates, use of legislation to control voting numbers or political district boundaries, and manipulation of the media. Fascist nations also typically use their judiciaries to manipulate or control elections.
