The real war is between the lunatic power-junkie elite and ordinary people: the jury (over the course of history) is still out on this one.

I firmly believe we are our own worst enemy. Terrorism did not start on 9-11. The IRA used terrorism, The FLQ in Canada used terrorism, The PLO used terrorism. Terrorism is not new to the world. Terrorism is new to the USA. US Foreign policy is the main problem. USA supported Batista in Cuba then when they had a revolution and threw him out we wondered why Castro was mad at us. We supported the Shah of Iran, then when they had a revolution we wondered why the Iranians were mad at us. Both of these leaders used to terrorize their people and we tolerated it. Saddam Hussien was another ally of the USA until something happened to change that, what it was I don't know. The list goes on and on.

the real war is the citizens of this country vs the news media outlets we get information from.
Since the advent of news as a comity, which can be bought or sold, we will never no the truth, only what the media, liberal or Conservative will feed us in between commercial...the news should not be bought and sold...when we have nobody to trust, who do we turn to for the truth.
do not be mistaken...this is a war about money and oil. If it was just a holy war, we would have nuked the entire middle east by now.

It's the right wing's war against education. An educated people can change the world, an uneducated people are just sheep.

Absolute power corrupts, absolutely. When the rich finally
accomplish absolute power from wealth, from stealing from
the poor, the "real" war will begin.
Unless, that is, someone "gets it" before it's too late.

the real enemy is corporate america. before i became a liberal i would never have answered your question. i would have supported stopping you from voteing. i now understand the plight of the colored man. also, the republican party supports corporate america, so the party is an enemy to america as well.

Both the far left and the far right are destroying this country. We need to be united.
The far left's agenda is to turn us into a communist country.
The far right's agenda is to turn us into a fascist dictatorship.
