American liberals, are you more afraid of terrorist states who say "Death to America," or your own country?

Answer 1

xialou1 - you actually have the balls to admit it? Then people on the left wonder why the are called terrorist sympathizers. Kind of like lumping Republicans in one group, that you like to call neo-cons.

Answer 2

More or less my own country, whose measures that are taken to protect me can actually infringe on my rights. The USA PATRIOT Act literally takes the Constitution and rips it apart, adding that you can say what you want, but you might be thought of as a terrorist. You can rally and have open protests, but you might be thought of as a terrorist. You can vote democratic, but you are probably a terrorist (sorry, got carried away there)... The terrorists who are shouting "Death to America!" are the ones that have no idea what to do to kill America. They do not frighten me, but mostly because before (sigh... and I thought I could go a day without saying this.....) 9/11.... they were unheard of. These middle-eastern "terrorists" used to be the people who worked at 7/11 for 18 hours a day; now they're terrorists in disguise; questioned by the government because they overpaid on their taxes for the year.
Of course, everybody in the know realizes that the majority of working-class middle-easterners in America are, in fact, Indian (from India, not like, Native American... you know.). They are not Iraqi, even though I have heard people coming out of the gas station claiming that they wouldn't buy the gas if they knew a terrorist was working for them... Well, it's not a terrorist; it's a person who works harder than you to support a family living below your means in a neighborhood that's worse than yours.
Sorry, I got off track for a minute. What I'm trying to say is that we started receiving these terrorist videos after (sigh..) 9/11 and not before. We still receive them, saying that they can't wait for America to become democratic again, but have they done anything? No. Will they do anything? Maybe, but probably not. All we can tell you is that we don't know where, we don't know when, and we don't know who will do it, but sometime, something bad is going to happen...
And if we get attacked again? Then what? We invade them again? That seemed to work out just dandy; I mean, we got Osama bin Laden, right? Oh, wait... that's not what triggered this war. It was the war on terrorism, purported by the Iraqi government that started this war, wasn't it? NO NO NO NO NO! Why do so many people believe this?!? It's very upsetting...
I don't know if I answered your question here, but I got a lot off my chest, so thank YOU.

Answer 3

wow this has to be the best anti democrat propaganda I have ever read. one sides the the terrorists and another says people saying death to America is of no consequence because the people in the caves are planning... hey heres a tip the people in the caves are telling the people in the streets what to say there smart guy. then you have some one saying a bomb can kill but it cant take our civil rights...... I call being alive a civil right but ok if you say so

Answer 4

A terrorist can bomb a building, hijack a plane, and kill a group of people, but terrorists CANNOT deny us freedom, liberty, or civil rights.

ONLY our own government can deny us the rights and freedoms that have made our country great, and PREVIOUSLY respected by the world's nations. No one can harm us as badly as our own government can, by changing our Constitution, and by upsetting the balance of powers in the three branches of our government. Those balances exist for reasons proven through our world's history. We have always been a nation of leaders - not of rulers - always to be held accountable.

Our Constitution IS our nation; it DEFINES our nation, our government, and the rights and protections of our citizens.

The difference between Libs and Cons are that we Libs honor, protect, and believe in our nation, it's historical premise (as well as promise), and therefore are loyal to the Constitution that defines it.

Cons, on the other hand, are loyal to a man - BUSH - and a skewed ideology, at whatever cost to our nation, our Constitution, our people, or our freedoms, liberties, and protections. They imagine or FABRICATE good where none exists, out of loyalty to that man and his misleading ideology.

Those sitting in the top seats of our government are the founders of PNAC, and it's global-domination schemes it so proudly published in September of 2000. They each sit on boards of large oil companies. They serve their own interests, and not those of the AMERICAN PEOPLE, we, the citizens. Their decisions are those of personal BUSINESS, not of the American people's well-being...nor the preservation of our Constitution and historical American values. Their wealth will protect them. WE are expendable, thus our lives (and freedoms) are the cost of them doing business.

This is all PUBLIC RECORD, totally ignored by those who ignorantly support this administration's tyranny. It seems they'd rather embrace the propaganda that reinforces their own misguided belief.

As Patrick Henry said, "Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death! " Cons happily trade our freedoms and protections from our own government for an IMAGINARY safety, parading their cowardice as patriotism.

“To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are
to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile,
but is morally treasonable to the American public."
Theodore Roosevelt, 1912

"Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary
safety deserve neither liberty nor safety."
Benjamin Franklin

"It is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong."
Voltaire (François-Marie Arouet)

"It is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country."
-Reichsmarschall Hermann Goering, a leading member of the Nazi Party, second in command of the Third Reich, and commander of the Luftwaffe.

Answer 5

I agree with FDR on this one. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.

I think instead of hating and fearing brown people, we should fix the holes in our intelligence that led to 9/11.
Instead of promoting the head of the NSA after this colossal failure, maybe we should have fired her.
Instead of praising a man who ignored the previous administration's terrorism concerns and a brief entitled "Bin Laden Determined to Attack Inside the US"- a man who hid in a school room while he waited for his pants to dry after learning that his country was under attack, maybe we should have been more curious as to why this attack happened on his watch.
Perhaps instead of the fervernt "let's kill all them a-rabs" rhetoric, we should have looked at who these terrorists were and killed or captured them.
Maybe, just maybe, we should have shown these terrorists who "hate our freedom" that no terrorist act can take that freedom away from us, instead of using terrorism as an excuse to gut the bill of rights.

When you let yourself be ruled by fear, you can justify anything. This is how atrocities happen. This is how liberty dies. This is how the country I defended for 6 and a half years becomes unrecognizable.

Answer 6

it is the way that Propaganda works. they attempt to physique public opinion by using using diverse buzzwords to portray the comparable photograph from diverse perspectives. Bush's grandpa funded Hitler and his daddy ran the CIA. Bush is familiar with all approximately a thank you to apply propaganda. The PKK has been attacking Turkish civilians in Turkey with American weapons that have been funnelled to them. Even the puppet government of Iraq considers the PKK to be a Revolutionary Organization 17 November.

Answer 7

I'm more afraid of a president who uses the terrorists who say "Death to America" in order to increase his own power.

People have been saying "death to America" for as long as I can remember. They are not the dangerous ones. The threat comes from people plotting in little rooms in Afghanistan or Pakistan, not the people marching in the streets.

Answer 8

Your never gonna win this, Libs will never except that there actually are people that can not be reasoned with or manipulated with politics. Now that they are in control of Congress, and if they win the presidency, they will dick around, and not address the problem of radical Isalm, until once again the military will have to take action, hopefully they will not be too decimated by the lack of support from the Libs by that point.


map- watch this video, looks like people marching in the streets to me, or that's the biggest tiny little back room in the world:

xialou1-if you don't like it get the F out!!

Answer 9

My own country is who I am more afraid of. Simply because we seem to have an aminstration that wants to lock anyone up for no reason, spy on American citizens, and completey ignore the Constitution. Not to metion erode the checks and balances as well.

Answer 10

Most Liberals aren't afraid of either such things.
