Liberals, okay how would you short of surrender defeat AL Qaeda?

Question

I'd really like to know your plans to protect us from terrorism short of raising the white flag and allowing AL Qaeda to run this country

why is it libs can't give a straight answer ?

becket - you sir are insultive and need to grow up

Answer 1

I see by some answers surrender is the only answer to everything, defeating an opponent never even occurred to be an option that and it is all Bush fault.
Bush didn't invent Al Qaeda or terrorist, just wants to kill them all
Liberals never offer answers, what is wrong with you. What right do you have to ask for a answer from those who know best for you and the world. You want a answer from those that know everything America does is the most evil thing in the world and never is anything good come from America Do as they say, give them money, shut-up and go away. That's all you need to know.

For a start Al Qaeda would be seriously weakened if the hypocritical NeoCons stopped supporting the Islamic Fundamentalist government of Saudi Arabia. This is where all but one of the 9/11 hijackers came from. The US could also use its influence to build a lasting solution to the Arab-Israeli conflict which generates resentment from Arabs towards the West. After this point the US relationship with Arab countries should be as no ore than trading partners. The US would then have no involvement in the region and the Arabs would have no reason to hate the US. Personally I only think that intervention in the affairs of another country should only occur where genocide occurs or is likely to occur. When this did happen, such as Rwanda in 1995, the US and Britain actually opposed UN intervention and allowed the murder of 1 million Tutsis to take place. To summarise my answer the way to defeat Al Qaeda cant be a military one, it must be political and aimed at fighting the causes of terrorism. If they simply defeat Al Qaeda in battle and the reasons it grew in the first place remain, it will simply rise again at a later date

The thing that scares me most is how divided we have seemed to become. One thing I think liberals don't understand is Ismo Facists like Al Qaeda and the Hesbo's have declared war on us and nothing we can do diplomatically at this point will matter. How many times do they have to prove that to you? Since the 70's they have attacked many countries and killed thousands of people not because of how they do this or that on any level but just because they exist. They don't think like we do. Their only goal in this life is to kill indifels and be rewarded in the next life by their moon god Allah. It is a hard enemy to fight and we have fought many tough enemies in the past but we knew who they were these people hide and don't play by any rules killing anyone and everyone they can. United though we can beat them defeat them take away their will to fight divided we can't win anything period. Will we unite in time I hope so. If not I feel sorry for our children and their children.

A combination of strategies would be called for... fighting in Iraq is a bad idea and drains your military, your finances and your international standing, instead it'd be important to build up allies in the Arabic world and to massively increase spending on intelligence rather than military action, getting people with local knowledge and connections as much as possible. You track and monitor these guys as much as possible, trying to get people inside of their network whilst building up info on all their leaders, bases and operations - this would probably require the appearance of taking some of the pressure off them, it'd be good if they thought America was too much of a wimp to come get them and that they'd won. Then when you have sufficient information and infiltration of the group you strike hard and rapidly, using black ops and precision paramilitary strikes - capturing as many as you can and killing those you can't capture. Those who are captured should be given an extremely open and public trial (preferably in a war crimes tribunal or similar, non-US run body) with evidence presented against them (not harder to gather while tracking and monitoring them) and then punished accordingly... this would be excellent for public opinion of who is right in this matter, even more so if you can get any of them to squeal then so much the better as you can reveal that one of them betrayed the others and this presents them as weak and ineffective, something that would damage their future recruiting prospects further.

Of course this will all be for nothing unless the US stops trying to run the middle east and interfering on behalf of oil companies and the state of Israel, stops trying to set up puppet governments and installing corrupt dictators or dictate policy to existing governments because more groups will spring up to replace Al Qaeda constantly. Basicly more than anything else the US needs to find a way of dealing with the world that protects its' own interests but doesn't infringe on those of others.

Answer 5

Get Bush the hell out of office. The tragic events of 9/11 would not have occurred had Gore been elected in 2000. Bush really only cares about those who have oil IE Saudi Arabians and the rich families there, including the Bin Laden family. I would love to provide with you of evidence that Bush has direct ties to Al Qaeda but don't want you to piss in your Wheaties.

Answer 6

this is the typical straw man argument promulgated by bush and cadre. Here's an idea the dems have offered- actually fighting al qaeda instead of pouring good money after bad into Iraq, where much of it flows to contracting firms friendly with bushco

Answer 7

Are you too ignorant to know we brought Al Qaeda into Iraq with our killings? How about leaving Iraq and finding Bin Laden? Terrorism is a war tactic and it is up 25% thanks to Bush.

Answer 8

I would take the gloves off and wipe out countries that support terrorism. Ah, but even Bush won't do that, 'cause he's a wuss who didn't even serve his duty. I mean, what else could we do? Protect the borders? OH WAIT, Bush won't do that either. Your bias is showing.

Answer 9

Given the smart-assed way you asked your question, is there any reason a liberal should bother to answer?

Answer 10

Smart *** way? Hell it's the truth...
