Question

just wondering..

Just so you know, I am COMPLETELY against it.

Answer 1

IS FULL OF SHIiT, like all the governments in this fckd up world

Answer 2

How can you be against it? Do you even know what that means? Are you suggesting we just allow people to attack us?

I agree that the War or Terror as it is being conducted does not make sense but: . If we stop using the bumper sticker phrase war or terror and start talking in concrete terms we can have real defined goals

1) Victory in Afghanistan: This means that the Taliban is defeated and the democratic government secure. The Taliban is outlawed the same way the Nazis are in Germany

2) Victory over El Quida: This means that Osman Bin Linden and his key personal are dead or capture and the financing for further crime is cut off. This victory is much more akin to defeating the Mafia then defeating an army. We need to in the words of Deep Throat "Follow the Money" even if it leads, as it likely will, to our friends in Saudi Arabia

3) Victory in Iraq: More complicated, on the one hand we have won by ousting Sadamm, now we need to bring all the three major fractions to the table and assist them as they negotiate a peace. This victory is a combination of political where we meet with ALL people from the area including Syria and Iran and Military where we act as a peace keeping force. This will not be easy. Here Democrats are wrong to think we can just leave. We can;t we cause a problem we need to fix it, and Republicans are wrong to think we can achieve victory without diplomacy

4) Victory in the Region: The cool thing is if we are big enough to reach out to Syria and Iran and negotiate a peace in Iraq, and we defeat the money flow to El Quedia we may be able to pull together enough good will to force Hamas and Israel to the table and with all the players in the region involved: Jordan, Egypt, Saudi, Iraq, Syria, and Iran find a peaceful two state solution to the Palestrina problem

Of course this will take leadership and nerve and humility and the ability to compromise and the ability to lose some to win more from American leadership. And given the current crop of hatred on both sides of the American spectrum, this is a lost cause. Which is s a shame because all of this is within our ability if we would just stop hating each other. If we could get past GW's lack of an IQ and Bill Clinton's need for a BJ. Ah but that is asking too much It will also mean that spoiled children like yourself will need to understand the world and history and all types of other things

Initially, the U.S. did not try to "sell" the war on terrorism to anyone. Our involvement in Iraq was originally to apprehend Hussein because of his violations of the Peace Treaty after Desert Storm. Basically, he was supposed to allow U.N and NATO inspectors free right of passage to inspect whenever, and wherever, they wanted.
This was something that Clinton was supposed to be handling. However, he was too busy receiving oral sex and covering it up to actually be a good president.
Bush is also screwing this up, but for other reasons. Remember, we had apprehended Hussein. Therefore, our mission in Iraq should have ended. It is not our responsibility to rebuild their country. Nor is it our responsibility to build their military and police forces.
If the Iraqi people really wanted us over there, then they would not be attacking each other, and us.
I believe that much of the killing is due to our presence in an area where our intervention is neither wanted nor appreciated. Once we vacate the territory, the Iraqi forces would probably be able to stand on its own feet. But, there is really only one way to find out.
As far as all of the domestic BS that we law-abiding Americans are facing - its just plain nonsence. Have you been through airport security in the past few years. They overkill the little stuff, but do not actually address the real issues. Almost anybody can use almost anything as a weapon. I walked into an elementary school classroom a few years ago, just in time to witness a 6th grade girl stab a classmate through the throat with a sharpened No. 2 pencil. The boy got sewed-up in the ER. The girl was sentenced to prison for attempted murder.
Now, if a kid can do something like that, then anybody else can, too. All of these silly rules about how many ounces of toothpaste, and everything else, you can bring on a plane DOES NOT stop terrorists. It only inconveniences the law-abiding citizens who need to travel. By the way, most countries don't have all of these silly rules about what you can bring when you travel. But, we do. And, we do because those in power want us all to believe that they are doing everything they can to protect us from terrorists.
I can go on all day about this. But, I'll stop and give us all a much-needed break.

Answer 4

That it is a hoax. Our big-wig govt. officials constantly repeated it in their speeches to make us more susceptible to their continuation of lies and deceit. 9/11 is key. Understand, research the facts and everything falls into place. If you actually read history, you'd realize that our FBI and CIA are responsible for most if not all the terrorism that we hear. You never heard of all the detained terrorist suspects being released (of course that's after it's been in the paper).

Sooner or later, people need to wake up. It's all about making a stand against tyranny.

Answer 5

It's about as nonsensical as the 'War on Drugs.'

Actually, the war on drugs probably makes more sense, it's largely metaphorical, afterall.

The problem with fighting a 'war' on 'terrorism,' is that terrorism isn't an enemy, it's a tactic used by the enemy. Declaring 'war on terror' in response to 9/11 is like FDR declaring a 'war on bombs' in response to Pearl Harbor.

Answer 6

The Vietnam conflict replaced into no longer heavily supported, what replaced into the effect? The Gulf conflict replaced into heavily supported, what replaced into the effect? that's no longer relatively plenty public opinion back abode yet on the battlefield. Do you think of US troops felt great in Iraq in 2007 while another Iraqi wanted them to die? Do you think of they could experience greater advantageous in Afghanistan understanding 7/10 Afghans help them? i do no longer understand, i'm a civillian, yet i could think of they could experience great understanding that the human beings back abode and in Afghanistan help them.The Taliban could be added demoralized understanding 9/10 of the the human beings do no longer desire them back in skill. the certainty additionally wins wars, submit to in concepts Mai Lai in Vietnam? The massecre of Vietnamese human beings in a village? That killed public opinion truly badly and puzzled the draft, the common of troops on the time etc. while the certainty have been given out, it replaced right into a considerable blow in public opinion in Vietnam and the U. S..
