		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;It is a shame that we continue to lose more good men and women to Islamic-based terrorism every day without exacting a larger toll on those who seek our destruction.

It is not about money or remuneration for damages , it is about crushing our enemy so that their will to continue their ways is broken, once and for all.

I personally do not believe we have the leadership or the will to do what needs to be done, there are any number of reasons for me saying it as I look at the political leadership and how it ebbs and flows over the shoals of time and tides.

Those seeking a new Great Caliphate will continue to attack the Great Satan and the West, count on it, but don’t expect to be compensated for it when it touches you personally, which it eventually will, again and again.

Be prepared to exact that compensation personally, as our enemies have had years to build up their forces here on our shores and will continue to do so. 

normsrevenge on December 22, 2006 at 2:42 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Damn shame that our leaders and collectively, the people, never seem to learn from our history, merely eternally doomed to repeat it. it seems.

You are 150% right -  we need to do the right thing - period!

In WW II, Pearl Harbor was enough to mobilize the people.

in 2007, I am not sure what it takes - as 9/11 was appearently not enough.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;So how exactly do the plaintiffs go about getting the money from the Iranians? &lt;/blockquote&gt;

I believe there have been Iranian assets in this country that have been frozen for some time.

Supposedly, not allowing collection from those assets, allows some pointy-headed liberal enabler foreign policy expert to use it as a &quot;stick&quot;.

Uh....yeah....it&#039;s worked real well hasn&#039;t it?

&lt;blockquote&gt;Andy McCarthy says Clinton knew and didn’t do jack.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

That bastard tried to hang the site commander as not doing enough for security.

I stayed a couple buildings away from the one blown  when transitting during the first Gulf War. You could cross the street and catch a taxi downtown. The buildings were solidly constructed, and anyone should have known immediately it wasn&#039;t a ragtag bunch that blew it up. It took a bomb of the type that would suggest state sponsorship.

Bubba was busy hoping Monica wouldn&#039;t bite, and NEVER ONCE gave a damn about any poor schmuck blown up half way around the world.</description>

		<description>I am thinking there should be frozen Iranian assets here in the US, leftovers from the 1970&#039;s. These could be used to pay the judgement could they not?</description>

		<description>I propose we deliver the invoice for the amount due taped to the nose of a JDAM aimed at Amanajahandjob&#039;s bedroom window.  

Iran OWES us for the US Embassy and the 444 days of captivity.  AND they owe us for Khobar Towers.  Big time.</description>

		<description>Thank you! Thank you! Please be seated! Oh, stop. Thank you. 

First,  I&#039;d like to thank God for putting me here (applause) and I&#039;d like to thank my parents for raising me right (sniff sniff) and my wife for puttin&#039; up with my long hours of posting comments and Michelle for creating this sight, and the judges for electing me. But I can not accept this award until EVERY Poster gets one too, because there are no winners or losers blah blah blah (insert corny hollywood talk here). 

Thanks EagleFixer! :-)</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;My (then) brother-in-law was, but thankfully he was on the other side of another building, facing away from the blast&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Glad your brother-in-law made it thru. From talking to the members of my squadrons ADVON team (they where still in the Khobar hotel building) it was nuts that night.

When I arrived my squadron was put up in the British and French side of Khobar since many buildings on the US side (not just #131) were damaged and more then building #131 was condemned.</description>

Now that it&#039;s offically Iran&#039;s dirty deed, I say let the missiles fly! What did Reagan do when we found out that the Libyans hit us?  He sent the Air Force to go kick some Libyan ass!</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;Andy McCarthy says Clinton knew and didn’t do jack.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Actually that is not true. Clinton caved to the Saudi&#039;s.

Prior to the attack the parking lot; where they parked the truck; had been identified as being to close to the buildings and it was requested to the Saudi&#039;s that the perimeter be extended in case of such an attack.

The Saudi government said no, and that was that.
   
I arrived at Khobar on the 26th of June to relive the F-15s/ crews from Eglin. If things had worked out as planned originally, my squadron would have been asleep in building 131.</description>

		<description>Trading votes for lives, can&#039;t go after them would upset the Dems base.  Besides it was only 19 dead.  They would gain 19 votes, but lose thousands from their liberal friends, just doesn&#039;t make political sense.
You gotta love those Democrats, there is no bottom to their miserable ways.</description>

All but confirming ten-years-worth of suspicions, a federal judge has ruled that a Saudi chapter of the Iran-financed Hezbollah terrorist organization was responsible for the deaths of 19 Americans in an attack at the Khobar Towers in 1996.

		<description>If they don&#039;t pay up, the court will impose a judgment lien. Then it&#039;s just a matter of some sheriff&#039;s deputies seizing property. Don&#039;t know whether they&#039;ll start with all that peaceful nuclear hardware or the midget&#039;s Members Only jacket.

Maybe we can gain custody of Hezbollah in the bargain.</description>

		<description>It is a shame that we continue to lose more good men and women to Islamic-based terrorism every day without exacting a larger toll on those who seek our destruction.

It is not about money or remuneration for damages , it is about crushing our enemy so that their will to continue their ways is broken, once and for all.

I personally do not believe we have the leadership or the will to do what needs to be done, there are any number of reasons for me saying it as I look at the political leadership and how it ebbs and flows over the shoals of time and tides.

Those seeking a new Great Caliphate will continue to attack the Great Satan and the West, count on it, but don&#039;t expect to be compensated for it when it touches you personally, which it eventually will, again and again.

Be prepared to exact that compensation personally, as our enemies have had years to build up their forces here on our shores and will continue to do so.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;You’re also assuming that Sunni jihadis wouldn’t work with Shiites to fight a common enemy. &lt;/blockquote&gt;

I make no such assumption.  However, they are just as liable to kill each other as to kill us.  It makes me wonder if there are any Wahhabi organizations in Iran with ties to Saudi Arabia.  Could this be a new type of warfare?  With terrorists used like privateers in proxy wars?</description>

		<description>As well as Bin Laden hiding his relatives in Iran. They dont trust each other but Sunni and Shiia extremists will back each other against the great satan.

Which also maybe why Zawahiri is so big on basing Israel lately. Al Queda hasnt been big on worrying about Israel other than I believe to get Shiia approval.</description>
