is this an example of the religious right in usa?

Question

http://www.nwanews.com/adg/News/191942 - one of many sites featuring this shocking story.



This re enforces all my negative stereotypes about America, and further, it confirms what the media here has been saying , and that is, usa staged the attack to cook up war fever. Now we have a leader for elephant saying more attack is a good thing.

“At the end of the day, I believe fully the president is doing the right thing, and I think all we need is some attacks on American soil like we had on [Sept. 11, 2001 ], and the naysayers will come around very quickly to appreciate not only the commitment for President Bush, but the sacrifice that has been made by men and women to protect this country,” Milligan said.

so Randy when a GOP head talks to the media , its just pure lies and done to confuse people?? I don't quite follow you here.

Answer 1

I skimmed through the article so I apologize if I missed something but I'll do my best to answer your question...

In the United States, like in Islam, Religion is not to be compulsory. What defines the United States is Opportunity not Guarantee. Humanity is suffering because it has become so isolated and compartmentalized. Most people I come across respect cultural and religious diversity and there are still many who see the actions of a few and identify these actions with their affiliations. The majority of those who hate Muslims could not begin to explain what Islam is. The whole world has and has had a problem of prejudice and apathy. There is no evidence that comes close to proving the U.S. government carried out the 9/11 attacks. There is only evidence of widespread ignorance, arrogance across the world.

Answer 2

In no way does this article "confirm" that the US staged the attack on september 11. Have you seen the pictures of the hijackers? Whom do they resemble?

There's not a Steve, a Patel, a Chan, a Dwayne, a Juan or a Dancing Hawk among them. Take a look, they're all on Hakim's poker team! How in the world did Bushie and the elephants convince Hakim and Co. to fly a bunch of jumbo jets into landmark buildings in the American northeast, sacrificing their own lives in the process? There's not enough shisha in Abu Dhabi, my friend. This was a plot hatched and executed by religious zealots someplace in the mideast.

Furthermore, the senator you paraphrase as saying "more attack is a good thing" did not make such a statement. He said "At the end of the day, I believe fully the president is doing the right thing, and I think all we need is some attacks on American soil like we had on [Sept. 11, 2001 ], and the naysayers will come around very quickly to appreciate not only the commitment for President Bush, but the sacrifice that has been made by men and women to protect this country".

Which is true. A few more bombings on american soil, and all the little sheep who've defected will be right back in the "Bushie for World Dictator" camp. What he did say is in distinctly poor taste. Be that as it may, he did not say, as you've postulated, "Come bomb us now!"

I'm not letting anybody off the hook here. Bushie and the elephants are doing a delightful job of defecating all over our foreign relationships (England's rulers alone seem to be on the Bushie bandwagon - more's the pity for them) and killing lots of innocent Iraqis and american soldiers for no good reason. I firmly believe that the attacks in question were the work of a rogue organization unrelated to any legitimate government, and it's a complete load of bat guano that our american leadership has chosen to make scapegoats of Iraq.

However, that doesn't make your statements any less colored by your perspective, nor does it make them accurate. You've made statements out of emotion, without even the most cursory circumstantial evidence to support them. Instead of bashing the US and americans, may I recommend extending the olive branch? Every american is not Bushie, as every middle easterner is not a bomber. I think a lot of people lose track of that fact. Also consider how hotly conflicted the states were with Japan 70 years ago, or Germany 80 years ago. Everyone got over it and got on with their lives, did they not? Gunther and Jim and Chiba-shun get along fine now. There's no reason that Akmed can't get in on the goodwill, but everyone's going to have to chill out for that to happen.

As for religios zealotry, I don't care what country you're from, the "religious right" is neither.

Answer 3

The only thing I have to say is that you can find different opinions and different people in any corners of the world. If you analyze carefully, different people and members of governments abroad have also contradictory opinions... this is part of human nature, not only America. Why do not you mention that many Americans at all levels are against the occupation in Iraq? There are many Americans opposing decisions in this regard... so do not embody the whole country based on the opinion of several people in one State. This country has many things to offer, including diversity of opinions...

Answer 4

Hmmm,

The ones that hijacked the Plains were Muslims, Muslims funded it and Osama took full credit for it.

That is Radical Muslims.

I know that not all Christians are perfect and that not all Muslims are terrorists, but if anyone believes that we blew up our own towers to justify war, they should do a reality Check.

Look at what the "President" of Iran is saying now.

Bush had enough fuel to invade Iraq already, Saddam had violated his own surrender treaty enough times to "cook up war fever" We do not want to colonize Iraq, if we did, we would not be helping it hold FREE elections and we would have taken it over during gulf war #1.

What leader is saying "more attack is a good thing"? What I am hearing is that we want to pull our just as soon as possible.

Good Luck!

Peace!

Answer 5

There are all kinds of people in America. Many negative stereotpes do exist, but that certainly does not represent the majority. In all honesty, most Americans have serious issues with parts of America. But we have the freedom to make these changes ourselves, which is what we are trying to do.

Answer 6

I'm sorry, but you are quoting what a liberal democrat publication says about a conservative republican and just assuming that it must be true?

You do realize that Democrats and Republicans are from different political parties, and they are deliberately trying to make each other look bad, don't you? You should not just accept everything that you read on the Internet as true.

===edit===

Obviously the "Democrat Gazette" is trying to slander the GOP (Republican) candidate by trying to make his look as stupid as possible so that people will not vote for him. Please use some common sense.

===edit===

The GOP rep. is not speaking directly to an independent & objective media, as you say; he is being quoted by a hostile source who is probably distorting what he said, or else taking it out of context.

Answer 7

What are you talking about? That shows you how ignorant you are. You're right. You have a lot of negative stereotypes of America. Republicans are not the religious right. They are politicians. As I scanned through the article you cut and pasted, (assuming you're a troll), I saw no mention of religion in it. If you think America is so horrible, and deserves to be attacked, if you presently live here, you should leave. No one sane would live in a place they feel is hostile to them.

Answer 8

It is better than a Donkey (or other explicitive that also means Donkey) for President.

That article does not support your argument. It does not say anything more than his personal beliefs. It did mention a religious affliation, I am not sure why that mattered in the context of the article- But he did not attribute his views to his religion. Bad argument. TRY AGAIN! NEXT!

Edit***
Your new details still don't support your original question. I see absolutley no mention of Religion in the part of the article you highlighted,

Answer 9

any where you go you will have nasty ppl and other folk meddling in national/international affairs!
what is it you find shocking exactly??
I found the Twin towers very shocking - no?
sorry - but I cant find sympathy with your point!

and what is up with stereo typing America - Hmmm?
I dont know where you come from but every place brings out it's claws! muslim countries seem to be the runner up theses days!

Answer 10

You grew up with a "sleeping negative stereotype", it just came out the closet.
