		<description>Answer to an above poster...&quot;are these morons born without brains..?&quot;  Nope....they are inbred...note the crossed eyes and the thought processes. IMHO, it would take a real inbreed to send a child, or anyone you cared about, into a crowd strapped with a fully loaded bomb.  Brains...they are born with those...it is the gentic line that is in question here.</description>

		<description>NRA4Freedom , you found the phrase that says it best: &quot;rose-colored glasses&quot;.

Top many events occured immediately after 911 that did not meet the rose-colored scenario. In that week, I was at home, glued to the television. In one interview with national leaders of muslim rights organizations in the US, I heard many now familiar comments, including the nefarious &#039;of course we condemn the killing of innocents&#039; phrase. At the end of the program the commentator asked one islamic leader if he had anything to say to his people in the audience. The man turned to the camera and said to his people &quot;remember, you have the right to remain silent. you do not have to say anything&quot;.</description>

		<description>Called a cousin of mine in London, ALOT of people in Britain are really worried about this. The tunnel and bus bombings really sunk into peoples&#039; minds and if this thing goes off it&#039;ll have disasterous results!</description>

		<description>Seems to me that their are several wars going on here.
The war on terror turns out to be a sympton of the war waged by the far left on every one else.
The far left is blind to the real world.  In their world they ignore everything that may occlude their principles.  This myopic view point is deadly, especially since they espouse tolerance, compassion, and peace. (Their is a wide gulf between what they say those things mean, and what they really think, but I don&#039;t want to write an encyclopedia sized post dscribing it all)

Suffice to say, the far left will apologise for everything the radical muslim will do, and blame pressures from the west as the cause.  Isreal goes up in an Iranian mushroom cloud?  It was the wests fault.
2,300 New Yorkers are killed in a bio attack in the subway?  The west caused it by supporting Isreal.  No matter what happens, the far left can not be woekn up.  The one thing they are incapable of doing is admitting they were wrong.  They were against us joining WW2.  That changed after it became such a popular victory, and they co-opted it.
They were against Vietman.  When they forced us out over a million Cambodians and Vietnamese are murdered but they ignored it.  It clashed with their sense of rightousness.
And now, when the many Muslims believe that the missing Imman is to appear in the next few years to create the worldwide Caliphate the left ignores the signs and works to hobble those that would prevent it.
You can not wake the far left up.  If the caca really hits the fan and Iran nukes Isreal, India and Pakistan begin glowing, Muslims worldwide seriously start rioting and attacking the west then you will see the near left wake up.  But not the far left.  Eventually we will either loose this war, in which most of those who read this board will be dead, or we will win it and the far left will be marginalized for the next 50 years.  Either way they will never wake up.</description>

		<description>“The police conducted the raid, the man said, because “they want to give us Muslims a bad name.””


&lt;b&gt;Yes, play the race OR the victim card. They have the West quite pegged, haven&#039;t they?&lt;b&gt;</description>

		<description>So, is the free world ever going to wake up and admit that the religion of Islam actually is what we try to believe it not to be?  It oppresses women, it murders it&#039;s own in the supposed name of &quot;honor&quot;(and then, the murdered person was often the victim in the first place), it seeks to murder or enslave not only anyone who doesn&#039;t worship it, but even those who don&#039;t worship it in necessarily the &quot;correct&quot;(read ultimately radical) way.

It&#039;s like the faulty liberal mind refuses to believe the obvious truth, instead rather believing what it wants to believe about anything and everything. It wants to believe that Islam is a &quot;religion of peace&quot;, just with a few bad apples, when it has never actually taken the time to study the religion in order to realize that the only people actually practicing it in full are those we would call &quot;terrorists&quot;.

Britain is filled with these faulty liberal minds. They have waged war on their own people(subjects) for years by waging a war on legal guns and knives that they foolishly, while disregarding the obvious truth, still believe will lead to a peaceful utopia of some sort.

Not only are we blind to the past and bound to relive it, we seem even virtually blind to the present, so we merrily wander down the road to oblivion like little lemmings heading for the cliff.

Again, where are the real patriots in Washington DC who are able to see around the rose colored glasses that liberal lies wear and actually do what needs to be done, no, what MUST be done Constitutionally speaking, no matter how much the thieves, liars, seditionists, and traitors scream and yell about it?</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;In summary, give FYE a break. No one can say ‘everyone’. However, he is right that the reaction was not what we normally see when Muslims are outraged as a group.&lt;/i&gt;

No, of course it wasn&#039;t and no one has suggested that it was. But that&#039;s very a very different thing than the &quot;NOT ONE of them has renounced 9/11&quot; comment which is factually wrong, and was presented with, well...caps lock. It&#039;s an insult to those whose identify as muslims and truly want to see this idiotic jihadi violence end. Hell, it&#039;s a denial of their very existence!

Let&#039;s keep this place rational, shall we?</description>

&quot;Not a single Muslim anywhere has renounced the 9-11 treacherous sneak attack&quot;

but he is falling into a normal over-generalization in a way most people have done, when the vast majority of events and experiences go a certain way.

First, there was a lot of celebrating world wide in that community over 911 that was highly publicized. Second, the level of outrage and reaction by non Muslim Americans was massive, while the public reaction of muslims in america was highly tempered. We saw people getting in their cars and driving hundreds of miles to help in New York, but we didn&#039;t see caravans of help from Muslims in America.

So an impression was easily formed that, well, they weren&#039;t outraged. For instance, I did not see the type of emotionalism and picketing I see in local anti-Isreal demonstrations. Or the rage in the islamic anti defamation groups when they sense prejudice. I didn&#039;t see tears. 

The Saudi royal family is officially anti Bin Laden as Bin Laden considers them apostates. However, there are high level members of that family who are pro Bin Laden.

The Saudi government doesn&#039;t speak for all their citizens who feed the terror networks and the insurgency in Iraq with volunteers.

The creepiest semantic game I saw after 911 was the &#039;innocent victims&#039; line. I heard this one from a local mosque  candlelight ceremony for 911 bictims where the spokesman emphasized his faith does not approve the killing of the innocent. That is a phrase I heard repeated many times.

There is a famous video of Bin Laden from somewhere in Afghanistan discussing 911 with a visiting sheik. They laugh together and Bin Laden remarked that the families of those who are not innocent, are themselves not innocent.

Not all Muslims interpret things this way, but in the extreme segment, the children, wives, and associates of those who are not innocent, are themselves not innocent. 

Muslims are prohibited from klling the innocent, but the catch is in the definition of the word. 

So a spokeman can go forth and condemn the killing of innocents, without lying, because he knows they were guilty by association. Whenever I hear that phrasing, my antenna go up.

In summary, give FYE a break. No one can say &#039;everyone&#039;. However, he is right that the reaction was not what we normally see when Muslims are outraged as a group.</description>

		<description>That London Times story is fascinating.  It goes out of its way not to identify the suspect, only to describe him this way late in the story:

&lt;i&gt;A 24-year-old man, who declined to be named, said that he was a “distant cousin” of the victim. &lt;/i&gt;

&quot;...the victim.&quot;  Because police shot him in a raid that was intended to stop him from killing innocent civilians with a chemical weapon.  That&#039;s stretching the definition of &quot;victim&quot; mighty far.</description>

		<description>&lt;strong&gt;US Troops cleared in Ishaqi raid probe...&lt;/strong&gt;

This seems to be the fallout from Haditha... More and more claims, regarldess of evidence (or a lack thereof) of troop misconduct. It seems all the MSM cares about are allegations....</description>

		<description>Horsepower

If you continue to walk away from that bank with money and shoot at us during your escape I&#039;ll be forced to issue another warning and say &quot;or else&quot; at the end of it.

When did I get transported into Demolition man? I guess that means I got fined seven bucks for all the cursing I just did</description>

		<description>I loved the response by a Brit journalist covering this affair this morning on Fox...

When asked about how unusual it was that a man was actually shot by the police in a country where the police force is &lt;B&gt;&lt;I&gt;unarmed&lt;/I&gt;&lt;/B&gt;, the journalist replied, &quot;Yes, well the police only show up with arms when there are significant indications that the suspects might actually be armed themselves&quot;!  

Lovely...  how the hell do you tell THAT ahead of time?  Just think, if us Bloody Colonials could master this technique, we could also be unarmed and &quot;safe&quot;!

In the spirit of a proper Brit policeman...

&quot;STOP!  I say, or I shall say STOP again!&quot;  

ROFLMAO!!</description>

		<description>I agree with Tony.  The War on Terror REQUIRES someone in the White House who fully understand the global battlefield involved.  Out of ALL other choices who truly have a shot, she&#039;s the only one truly qualified in this regard.

Want to go back to the Clinton methodolgy for this??</description>

		<description>Leiren, I believe Condi is the most likely to continue the Bush Doctrine of pre-emption, it was her idea for all we know. This war is gonna last a long time and I want somebody in there who&#039;ll fight it. I also believe that if not Condi then ANY Pubbie is a better choice than ANY dhimmicrat. No potential candidate is perfect on every issue, but she is the best choice during this war. It doesn&#039;t end with Iraq. We still have iran and syria to deal with. I don&#039;t trust McCain or Rudy etc enough to handle this war for the next 8 years. We don&#039;t want our future generations facing east and praying to mecca 5 times a day. I am not knocking Tancredo or anybody else, I like him by the way, I just think Rice is the choice during wartime. She appears to be softening up since taking her new post at State, but that&#039;s her job. Talk nice while Rummy works on target aquisition. Then she can go back to being the Velvet Hammer again. Hello B-2&#039;s, buh-bye iranian nukes.</description>
