Which is highest? Your fear or your wisdom?

Question

In our world there are about 1.3 billion followers of Islam and the Koran. Only about 15 percent are considered radical fundamentalists. Is there anyone other than Bush and his cronies that really believes we can kill them all without the use of Nukes? You do the math, we can not kill them all. I see the use of nukes in our future. Iran also sees the use of nukes in their future. Some say the “war on terrorism” is going well in Iraq. I say our list of allies is getting shorter each day we spend in occupation of that country. We need to get our troops out. We need to protect our service men who serve there bravely.
We should protect them and America with wisdom not fear. Fear is what the November elections are about. In the Republicans mind if your fear is highest, they win.

Which is highest? Your fear or your wisdom?
Wisdom demands that we make friends in the world not enemies, wisdom demands that we find a way to end war. Wisdom demands that we make every effort not to use nukes. Fear could very well win out.

When our President speaks some listen, some see lies as lies. His words tell all.

THE PRESIDENT: I square it because, imagine a world in which you had Saddam Hussein who had the capacity to make a weapon of mass destruction, who was paying suiciders to kill innocent life, who would -- who had relations with Zarqawi. Imagine what the world would be like with him in power. The idea is to try to help change the Middle East.
Now, look, part of the reason we went into Iraq was -- the main reason we went into Iraq at the time was we thought he had weapons of mass destruction. It turns out he didn't, but he had the capacity to make weapons of mass destruction. But I also talked about the human suffering in Iraq, and I also talked the need to advance a freedom agenda. And so my question -- my answer to your question is, is that, imagine a world in which Saddam Hussein was there, stirring up even more trouble in a part of the world that had so much resentment and so much hatred that people came and killed 3,000 of our citizens.
You know, I've heard this theory about everything was just fine until we arrived, and kind of "we're going to stir up the hornet's nest" theory. It just doesn't hold water, as far as I'm concerned. The terrorists attacked us and killed 3,000 of our citizens before we started the freedom agenda in the Middle East.
Q What did Iraq have to do with that?
THE PRESIDENT: What did Iraq have to do with what?
Q The attack on the World Trade Center?
THE PRESIDENT: Nothing, except for it's part of -- and nobody has ever suggested in this administration that Saddam Hussein ordered the attack. Iraq was a -- the lesson of September the 11th is, take threats before they fully materialize, Ken. Nobody has ever suggested that the attacks of September the 11th were ordered by Iraq. I have suggested, however, that resentment and the lack of hope create the breeding grounds for terrorists who are willing to use suiciders to kill to achieve an objective. I have made that case.
And one way to defeat that -- defeat resentment is with hope. And the best way to do hope is through a form of government. Now, I said going into Iraq that we've got to take these threats seriously before they fully materialize. I saw a threat. I fully believe it was the right decision to remove Saddam Hussein, and I fully believe the world is better off without him. Now, the question is how do we succeed in Iraq? And you don't succeed by leaving before the mission is complete, like some in this political process are suggesting.

leogirl, once again you show you have no clue. none. Nukes are your answer not mine. BTW, do you even know what 15 percent of 1.3 billion is?

Go to the White House web site, read the January 31, 2006 State of the Union address by Bush, these are his words. "On September the 11th, 2001, we found that problems originating in a failed and oppressive state 7,000 miles away could bring murder and destruction to our country. Dictatorships shelter terrorists, and feed resentment and radicalism, and seek weapons of mass destruction." (Applause.)" Carl Rove was very careful when he wrote this speech for Bush not to include the words Iraq.

leogirl08, you must have missed this above"imagine a world in which Saddam Hussein was there, stirring up even more trouble in a part of the world that had so much resentment and so much hatred that people came and killed 3,000 of our citizens."

Answer 1

Sadam had 0 to do with our venture in Iraqu, just like whats his name has o to do with our entry to Iran.

No longer does it matter that our incursion be justified. They will simply float new ligislation, and tack on som stuff to defense spending bills and............who knew we are totruring some folks in some remote location. Or paying for this.

If there is doubt in anyones mind that Bushco is trying to push legislation that will ignore his missdeads, they need to rethink this. We all saw the Presidential press melt down.

Are we, the American people tired of being called traitors and unpatriotic, oh hell yes. We see stupid as...........STUPID.

WAKE UP AMERICA

VOTE WITH YOUR BRAINS NOT YOUR EMOTIONS.

PLEASE.

Answer 2

Fear of Wisdom!!!!
It's incredible the knowledge man has gained, but it's also incredible (or better said - pitiful) what they choose to do with what they know!!!

The wiser we get, the more we should be feared!! What is it that will bring humanity to an end? Some sort of natural disaster you say! Llike the "prehistoric" times? Some sort of meteor will strike, or the sun will not shine anymore??? I DON'T THINK SO!! Man will finish off with man before nature does!

Still you ask which is highest?

Answer 3

Fear is the key.
False evidence that look actual in reality that spread like wild-fire with imagination running wild with self lack of knowledge and misinterpretation with miscommunication and communication failures with communication break-down being exposed with time on planet earth.
The blunders and slip-ups with human errors when little children could no longer differentiate between fantasy and reality or ghost stories being overlook on planet earth.
Were at loss and stranded on planet earth.

Answer 4

My wisdom. That wisdom tell us what we have done is right. Just because many are short sighted. The President has never stated that Iraq had anything to do with 9/11. And you words above have just proved that point once again. Just because you and many like you are confused, it does make the President a liar.

Answer 5

Way to long for a question. But to cut to the chase.... one can't make friends with some one that is bent on killing you. With that "15%" the choice is easy.. either convert or die. I don't want to die, and I won't convert... So I propose a 3rd choice.... exterminate them all... man, woman, child... cleanse the Earth of the vermin forever.

Answer 6

Yeah, you know whats best....let's all get together holding hands, kiss a couple of trees, and sing we are the people. Come on now, sticking your head in the sand does not make you a wise man.

Answer 7

The fear of God is the beginning of Wisdom. Think about it.
