This whole "war on terror" thing..is it actually Christianity vs Islam but we're too PC to admit it?

Answer 1

It is more like Muslims fanatics against everyone. Muslim fanatics are killing Atheists, Buddhists, Christians, Hindus, Jews, and other Muslims. They want this to be a religious war to rationalize their sociopathic tendencies when it really is not.

Good Luck!!!

Answer 2

Bush says "Islamo fascists". Obviously he isn't biased. /sarcasm

Interestingly, the media reports extremists only come from Islam. The media broadcasts such lovely psychological warfare. Psychological warfare is by definition terrorism. Point blank, it is impossible to defeat terrorism, which means this is nothing more than a crusade against Islam.

Edit: On top of this, we are spreading "democracy" and we aren't even a true democracy. If we were a true democracy, then Bush wouldn't have become president. Him becoming president would have been considered a coup de'tat since he only won the electoral, not the majority. A lot of people don't know their rights which means if you don't use your rights, you lose them. The American public eduction system has obviously failed. Does anyone truly think all these unconstitutional laws that have been passed are going to be voided later on? This will never happen. The constitution has become obsolete.

Well, America is an experiment. Did we fail?

Answer 3

It's not about Islam, it's not even about terror. It's really more about empire building. Iraq was not involved in 9/11 and was not a threat to the U.S. yet the White House continues to sell the invasion as part of the war on terror. The Iraq war is an ill advised, bungled attempt at empire building thinly disguised as a war on terror. It's all about oil.

Answer 4

No I don't think so. We were live and let live until the terrorist attacked us. I question the rational of going into Iraq when the terrorist were somewhere else. But that was because Bush is an idiot and may factors of mix-ups and bad information, etc. Bush is total unfit for the office of President and this mess is what we get. I think that Muslims who live in the Middle East and possibly elsewhere want to think that this is a war between Christian and Muslim, but it is not.

Answer 5

I think from America it is definatley about religion, as well as material wealth but the allies are just wanting control over resources.

Let's take a look, attacking Afghanistan was fair if Al Qaeda caused the events on 9/11.

Attacking Iraq? There was no justification, they fabricated lies about WMD's in order to invade. If they wanted regime change they should have spoken to neighbouring countries & sided with them. Many of whom after the invasion of Kuwait broke thier relations with Iraq.

This leads us onto Iran, they have no WMD's they are not planning to use them. I agree Ahmedinajad has said Iran should wipe Isreal off the map. But let's think about it logically for a second. Why does Iran want to wipe is Isreal of the map? Becuase of Palestine now if he uses a nuclear weapon to this this is going to kill if not have after affects on the Palestinians. So nukes are out of the question.

Now what makes it blatently clear that this is a war on Islam is North Korea. Who definatley has WMD's and has every reason to use it within thier region. Is their any talk of attacking North Korea? Is it becuase they're not Muslim? Or is it becuase they have no Oil (Iraq) or Gas (Iran) to exploit?

Answer 6

no - the "war on terror" is a turn of phrase coined by George Bush to justify his plans and subsequent attack on Iraq. it could almost be likened to the "Domino theory" espoused by Kennedy in the sixties to warn of the impending dangers of communism. i doubt there is any more terrorism today than say in the sixties, seventies and eighties- IRA, ETA, ANC, Badder- Meinhof group aka red army faction, PLO, black September group etc- many of the groups operated during the late 60's and early 70's - the level and number of aircraft hijackings was at it's most intense during this period. i think it's important to acknowledge or at least recognize that "one mans terrorist is another mans freedom fighter". to say that the current trends reflect some holy war is seriously misguided and a rather dangerous mindset to foster.then again this might not be the first " war on terror" between opposing religious groups- i mean the Jews felt threatened by the rise of Christianity- spearheaded by one man -Jesus- the "revolutionary"?- the "terrorist", did he incite people to question the orthodox rulers of that day, i bet they weren't happy - probably why they had him executed. and Islam is the largest growing religion in the world, by definition they all form part of the Abrahamic religions- Judaism first, Christianity second and the culmination of all in the faith of Islam-natural progression really- not terror.

Answer 7

Well, it isn't exactly Christian v. Islam, but it is Western v. Islamist.

Western in this case including much of the Secular West along with the Judaeo-Christian West, and its allies. Islamist being not just Muslims, but Muslims who want a totally faith-based society under the rule of a theocracy.

I've adopted the same language for Christians who want the same thing -- Christianists.

Answer 8

Bush is a crusader, and he has imposed these war upon muslims which are called 'war on terror', infact this is war against muslims world to wipe them out from the face of world !!!

Answer 9

It is about Bush's decisions on foreign policy. I really don't understand what is strategically important about Somalia. Why did Ethiopia invade it? Why is Eritrea in there? There are stories about Saudi Arabia pumping money into training programs for guerilla warfare there.

What despot thinks, "I am going to take on Somalia for oil, national pride, money and to be the world's greatest police force! God bless America! Bring out the big bombs and big tanks! Patriotism and unity at its best! Cultural imperialism here we go!"

Answer 10

George Bush allows his faith to influence his decisions. He can't even make a speech without referring to God, and he's the one who promoted that whole "axis of evil" thing after 9/11. This kind of supernatural thinking is dangerous in any world leader, no matter what religion.
