Reign, you can speak to truth. The same kind of people who supported slavery and their so called right to own another person, are the same type pf people who today blindly support anything their political Tzar dictates.

The people who supported and benefited from the Atlantic slave trade and chattel slavery in the Americas were the devilish Euro-Americans. The Occidental peoples are the Biblical Pale Horse, wherever the Occidental people go, death and Hell follow. Iraq is just the latest example.

Here is to the Bushies..
People like Geroge and I will continue to speak our minds abd make sure that the US does not get harmed by idiots like you.

As a citizen it is our duty to make sure that the adminsitration is criticized and eventually thrown out in election if makes mistakes and undertakes policies that hurt our nation.

You are nothing but armchair patriots. Comments like 'low life muslims' who that real agenda behind your wars. Honesty and truth is not in yoru dictionary. Just look at Bush supporting Gonzales this mroning even after his lies to the senate last week.

Geroge said it right, folks still supporting this war are really like those 25% iditos who were supporting slavery, opposing civit rights. denying global warming till the end. These folks just suffer from lower level of intelligence and I feel pity for them.

MQM, you seem to miss the point that the foreign occupation has sown a lot of the seeds of the sectarian turmoil in Iraq. But as a matter of practicality, if the Iraqis want to kill each other, why should anyone get in between? If global intervention into a country is necessary, isn't this a role of the UN?
Why should, or how can, America police the rest of the world? America is not showing a lot of respect for Iraq by creating and condoning the turning of it into a massive 'terrorist' killing field. Wasn't America's real mission to go after al qeada and osama bin ladin in Afghanistan? What happened to that part of American justice? Shall we say it doen't matter? What about Pakistan- which harbors the terrorists, has nuclear weapons, gave/sold nuclear bomb technology to N. Korea, and was one of only three gave dipolmatic recognition to the Taliban govt which supported obl?

You mean regurgitate your programing, don't you? Harm the USA? You do nothing but.

'Honesty and truth is not in yoru[sic] dictionary. '

'Your' isn't in yours... I wonder if you ran your mouth like that when the last Clinton was wondering what the definition of 'is' is.

'Geroge said it right, folks still supporting this war are really like those 25% iditos[sic] who were supporting slavery'

Only in your mixed up idiotic, adolescent. ill-informed, stupid, indoctrinated, infantile world could an effort to free a people from a brutal dictator be the equivalent to supporting slavery. Idiots.

What is really needed is to get the Bush's back in Crawford and then build a wall around their compound. If we make it hard, George will never figure out how to get out. The world would be a much safer place!

...We are constantly looking for people such as Osama. Unfortunately its like find a needle in a hay stack. I dont think the war is just to prevent violence between the Iraq people...but to prevent future terrorist attacks on US and allied soil. 30 years ago we worked along side Osama but he didn't like us on 'his land' so now we have all these problems today. This is very simplified cause I dont have time to write much detail....I dont think establishing foreign business is any reason to kill our innocent people.(Im not referring to the oil in Iraq). If they want a fight they should ask for it. Not fly planes into our buildings....People trespassed on our soil and the government released the hounds...

'To grow up Sams'
Well at least Clinton did not get 300 americans soldiers killed in a war based on lies.
As brutal as Saddam was, Iraq is in a worse shape now then ever. More people have been killed since Saddam's fall. All because of incompetent handling of the war. It is fools like you who are in charge...may same graudates of Messiah College who are running the justice department...may ne same folks like 'Hec kf Job Brownie' running the EPA...may be some other 'born again' bushie with no experience.. You are telling me, we harm the nation!!!

Slavery was not such a bad idea. We should enslave the people of Iraq and force them to adopt Christianity, break-up their families, rape their women, emasculate their men, and treat them real bad for a long time. Look at how good the blacks in America turned out. Also, during slavery there was full employment.

MasterQM,

you still seem to believe that OBL is solely responsible for 9/11. You seem to neglect the mounting evidence that Bush and his allies allowed it to happen, and even made it appear worse by rigging WTC, to give America an excuse to gain more power in the Middle East, secondly to secure oil, but mainly to secure Israel by removing a major anti-Israel regime and replace it with an easy to control democracy, i.e: dictatorship. Neither USA nor Bush really care about democracy in the Middle East, and they don't want it. They want their own dictatorship that they call democracy. That's obvious because just like America's ignoring Nuri Al-Maliki, America has historically always ignored any democracy that isn't in its own interest.

USA is the biggest dictator of the 20th century.

Israel is really the center of the conflict that everybody overlooks. Why does America support Israel so badly? Perhaps for economical reasons, perhaps religious?

If there were true democracy in the Middle East the radical Islamists would control the region and Zionist Israel's days would be numbered. Osama Bin Laden would be the President of Saudi Arabia and Ayman al-Zawahiri would be the president of Egypt.

Bush is fighting against a troop withdrawal timetable in attempt to get americans to eventually forget about it, just like his constant hot air talk about Iraq being in any way related to 9/11 eventually made americans believe so.

Why? Why does Bush want troops indefinately stationed in Iraq? Well, besides that it strengthens America's grip on the world in general and the Middle East in specific, it becomes very convenient and quick for america to step in and strike against anybody in the middle east who stand up against israel.

The Base,

you said Israel's days would be numbered. That's exactly my point, that's exactly why america is moving, to stop that.

As for OBL and Ayman Zawahiri, and other extremists, they wouldn't exist today if it weren't for Israel's existince and America's fierce support, financially, politically, and militarily.

Extremist Islam slowly developed over the past 60 or 80 years, influenced in the beginning by nazism and fascism, but ultimately fueled by the USA's support for Israel, and Israel's existence. Wasn't it america who trained and funded Al-Qaida???

If it weren't for Israel, and USA's support for it, the Middle East would have been a very pieceful and moderate place, and Islam would have shined for what it really is. Either way, both Christians and Muslims consider todays events as revelations and indications of future events.

Everybody knows that eventually this is a Christian vs. Muslim thing, and that it will unfortunately get worse.

'Well at least Clinton did not get 300 americans[sic] soldiers killed in a war based on lies.'

Nope, his indifference/incompetence and distraction by interns allowed Al Queda to grow and got 3000 killed on 9/11.

'As brutal as Saddam was, Iraq is in a worse shape now then ever'

So that makes him preferable. Eh? When did it become 'liberal' to side with dictators?

' More people have been killed since Saddam's fall. '

Then in Saddam's purges? Then in the wars Saddam started? You are wrong. Just wrong.

'It is fools like you who are in charge...may same graudates[sic] of Messiah College'

LOL! You would eat grandma to be allowed to put my degrees on your resume. Typical leftist clown, you consider yourself 'educated' when all you have been taught is how to regurgitate others opinions, not to think for yourself.

'You are telling me, we harm the nation!!!'

Add a few exclamation points you hysterical child, then people will take you more seriously. Lol!

It is always the Israelis fault.. You are so jealous, they can create you can only destroy. No one has held you back other then Mohammad. If they were to magically disappear tomorrow you would still be in the exact same fix you are today, only looking for another scapegoat.
