Well, since Bush hasn't faked a terrorist attack yet, I guess we'll never know, will we.
Go piss up a rope, troll.

First, i don't believe that 9/11 was faked. I personally know two people who arrived on the scene within two hours after the collapse and worked on the site for the next two months. How two planes being flown into the building could be faked i don't know and if you are implying our government did it then you have never worked in the government. Nothing can be kept secret that is that big and complicated to do. Second, as a soldier, i would follow the orders of my superiors until such a time that i felt i was doing something illegal or against humanities common laws of decency. I would then lay down my arms and take what punishment was administered. I do not believe in insurrection against our government except as a very last resort, and have a lot of faith in the checks and balances in our constitution. While it may seem that it doesn't work in every situation, i can't see our system failing on such a large scale. We elect our leaders for a reason, and if we don't trust them to do what we want then we need to vote and express our opinions in peacable ways. I would never presume that i know more than the combined wisdom, experience and common sense of the senate, house, supreme court or the president combined. And they too are fathers, mothers and have loved ones.

You make a claim that Bush faked a terrorist attack. Support your claim with some facts please.
You comment that our president is a radical dictator. Support your accuzations with some facts please.
Were do I stand?
Duty, Honor, Country: Those three hallowed words reverently dictate what you ought to be, what you can be, what you will be. They are your rallying points: to build courage when courage seems to fail; to regain faith when there seems to be little cause for faith; to create hope when hope becomes forlorn.
Unhappily, I possess neither that eloquence of diction, that poetry of imagination, nor that brilliance of metaphor to tell you all that they mean.
The unbelievers will say they are but words, but a slogan, but a flamboyant phrase. Every pedant, every demagogue, every cynic, every hypocrite, every troublemaker, and I am sorry to say, some others of an entirely different character, will try to downgrade them even to the extent of mockery and ridicule.

The Awoken One,
Martial Law? The troops, their families, their people-the American people will stand together-and hopefully one day nations that once thrived on producing hate filled terrorist=will instead be a country with hope for their children to live in truth!

You expect a rational answer to a question that accuses this administration of faking an attack? The military is on the side of the United States of America. So I guess the military in essence would see you and your kind as the enemy.

Please offer some proof that Mr. Bush faked a terrorist attack in the first place, or you and your question slides off into the realms of the conspiracy theorists.
As a non-American, I like to see proof of any accusations being made by you.
Thank you.

First of all...
-What "Fake Terrorist Attack"?
-And Yes, we are "bound" to uphold those appointed over us.
-And Yes, if it is an illegal order, we are supposed to refuse the orders and follow the chain of command.
-Yahoo military community? Nonsense!
-Military families... well that varies. My family has mixed feelings. So do I, but it is my choice and these support me.
Here is one last good point to make... VOTE.

Hard to believe this is a serious question, it makes me wonder if you are using heavy drugs, or just delusional. Also I am willing to bet you are a liberal.
I voted for Bush, and glad I did. He understands the threats we face today.

Okay, beyond the fact that your a little off the reservation, I will say this....
I am bound by my duty to uphold the CONSTITUTION of the United States. And in the course of executing that office, to obey all LAWFUL orders of those Non-Commissioned and Commissioned Officers appointed over me.

Seriously dude you need to stop watching so many films.
Why don't you go to Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, or even Turkey and tell them you are an American. See what they do to you.
If you would have gone even 20yrs before the Bush administration they would have hated you just the same.
