There will never be enough words for me to explain why I feel that we are doing the right thing, and hoping that we step up our pace. I cannot speak elogantly and I am not a debating professional. But I will simply state without error that I know that the war against terrorism is for a just cause and that I am happy to know that we are no longer going to play victim to their idiodicy. Thus the cute little saying: It is for God alone to judge Osama and his pansies...but it's up to the Marines to arrange the meeting!!! [ 02-24-2002: Message edited by: Larry_OHF ] |

Oh, my goodness, I was about to agree with Larry_OHF. Actually, I just did. Well said, Larry, even with a little trouble on the spelling. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

They said something about this whole war thing on a comedy show I watch... this is funny, because it is very very true!!
They were talking about what Bush is going to do... "And Nobody is going to support him. ON his left, Nobody, on his right, nobody. And that nobody is... JOhn Howard" One thing I definately dont like about this whole thing though... A terrorist blows up the World Trade Centre. Without any investigation, Bush blames Osama Bin Laden. Bush declares war with these supposed terrorists. Bush says "You cant be neutral in this. Your with us or with them." No investigation is made into the accuracy of who Bush claims as the Enemy. America bombs seemingly random targets (acting on Bush's intructions), and provides a video tape of plans to do something very very evil from each one. NO investigation is made. When the Taliban (who are the Afghan government) complain about the bombings of their country (which a government naturally would), Bush declares that they are the enemy aswell. More tapes. Still no investigation. This is what has happened, from what weve been told... and Bush wants people to support HIM ?? If I were a politician, id say "Ged oudda here." in much better English. |

i say turn all of those countries who do us wrong into a huge glow in the dark ball of GLASS!!! well, seriously, i dont see how they think we are going to NOT act on that. they only do it to show that "they arent afraid of us", when actually they are. they are afraid of what they dont know, they dont know FREEDOM. our society far surpasses thiers. America is the land of the free, and the home of the brave for a reason. they dont understand that EVERYONE in our military is a volunteer, and WANT to serve thier country. they dont know what any of that is like, so they hate it. personally, they would be next on my list, but that is just me.

quote: They dont know freedom... Now, just who are 'they' ?? The taliban ?? Ok, they dont live like americans do... But isnt it against American law to discriminate against someone purely because of how they live ?? Also, What I was getting at was, there was no trial for Bin Laden, no investigation into the attacks, simply George Bush saying "This was done by Osama Bin Laden". |
