Bush, Republicans created chaos?


Published/Last Modified on Thursday, October 11, 2007 3:02 PM CDT

Congratulations on your Doctorate in International Relations, Political Science, and Foreign Affairs! Might I suggest that the next time you crave attention, try not using solely the talking points of the Daily Kos / George Soros / MoveOn.org crowd and most importantly...don't use all caps, you lost all credibility for the length of your multi-paragraph anger-fest.

I understand you are ground in your beliefs and no bit of persuasion, opinion, fact, or any or logical appeal to common sense would change your mind. By the attitude of your forum post, you loathe America and likely are not of any Christian faith. However, I'm offended by one paragraph in particular.

Now, to address it.

"...AND, AS THE CONTINUED BOMBINGS IN ENGLAND, SPAIN, AND OTHER COUNTRIES IN THE WEST SHOW, BUSH'S "WAR ON TERROR" HAS NOT MADE US ANY SAFER FROM TERRORISTS. IN FACT, THE OPPOSITE IS TRUE AS AFGHANISTAN AND IRAQ PROVIDE A PLACE FOR TERRORISTS TO TRAIN THEIR MEMBERS AND LET THEM BECOME BATTLE HARDENED..."

Weak. Weak. Weak argument. When did "us" mean "Europe"? Unless you are one of the "one world" "one people" global theorists, the point falls flat. The facts are, due to increased terrorist surveillance measures, we are better prepared to intercept terrorist plans in genesis thus preventing further development. This isn't to say it won't happen again because they are always seeking to evolve and evade detection in order to kill 'the infidel'. War is not chess, neither the good guys (us) fighting it or (them) the enemy, are inanimate chess pieces, they think. It is important for you to understand that "the enemy gets a vote" in warfare and where we fail, we adapt to overcome, and they adapt to overcome the setback of our better planning.

Let me remind you. You are an infidel. We are not Europe. Spain folded after an attack, they are weak. We are not. You probably are. Terror declared war on us and we are fighting it there. Yes, they do get limited training in country but we're killing them off as quickly as stacking chords of wood, and I promise you, their training is very limited in scope of their abilities, and limited in their ability to carry their fight to your doorstep. Their leadership is continually tracked, hunted, and killed. After Zarqawi, they have not had masterful tutelage. The "awakenings" of the local populi in Anbar, Fallujah et al are running AQI from their havens. Saddam Hussein was at a minimum complicit in 9/11's execution by allowing the Salmon Pak terrorist training facility to flourish unencumbered in Kurdish territory, see globalsecurity.org, Google it! Additionally, Atta received training in Iraq, and Zarqawi medical treatment after being blasted in Afghanistan.

"...AND, LET'S NOT FORGET THAT EVERY REASON BUSH GAVE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND CONGRESS FOR GOING TO WAR IN IRAQ TURNED OUT TO BE FALSE..."

I doubt you have closer to military service than the distance from your couch to your refrigerator. And the time it takes to do so? I've got twenty years on you. WMD. For the life of me, I do not know why what has been found isn't publicized. I do know Salmon Pak had it, and I know men who have busted into storage facilities with Vx, destroyed munitions with unidentified gasses, found mobile bio labs. Question for you, which I'm sure, with all of your education you can easily answer. How much salmonella concentrate does it take to poison thousands? A 55 gallon drum full? More? Less? Not much. Less than a palm.

I won't bother to discuss other types of nerve and biological agents, the quantities required for mass casualties, or delivery and dispersal methods. The concepts are beyond your comprehension.

We've been there, we've seen it, I've seen it, I've bombed it.

People like you will not get the message until you've lost your freedoms to the caliphate, living under Shari' a law, seen your friends dead and your child's head severed from their body. This war that they started is not going to stop, and it will likely not be over in my lifetime. But I tell you this...I'm going to do my part to fight the hell out of it now so my children won't have to, and if you take issue with me, then I suppose you and I can arrange a fisticuffs next time I come home.
