At times like this I need a patriot pretzel, freedom fries, patriot punch and some freedom toast.

true but you can't just roll over either, people need to learn lessons from northern ireland etc. we need to change our attitudes to middle east etc. whilst cracking down on terror we need give them less reason to instigate terror IMO giving israel a big kick up the back side etc
Jay ay Beee:
After September 11th, the war should have been fought like this:
1) Do the Afghanistan thing, to make sure everyone knows countries that harbour terrorists are in for it.
2) Peace settlement in the Middle East. Majority of Israeli's want it, but the problem is their political system means that the right can get in power by building coalitions with extreme right parties. They should have given Sharon 2 months to do dismantle the settlements, then if he didn't the US should have withdrawn all economic and military aide to Israel, forcing the government to come crashing down and someone from the left to be elected. At the same time the EU could have suspended all subsidies to the PLO until Arafat relinquished power or give enough of it to someone else for them to work with the Israelis.
3) As nobody wants nuclear weapons in terrorist hands, give a strong message to Iran, N.Korea and Iraq that they cannot build these weapons. Send in inspectors where possible with the threat of force. They got the first part right with Iraq but because of the interests of Halliburton etc. the US invaded.
This would have been the brave way to go about fighting terrorism. Instead, the Bush administration took the cowardly route, sending young kids to die for oil, building contracts and personal vendettas. They compromised the entire war on terror, and consequentially, have made the world and especially America less safe.
Oh and Trauma, you only pay lip service to your religion, when it comes to practicing it you come up short every time. You encourage cycles of violence, which shows your redneck surroundings overtake any beliefs that you claim to have. Turn the other cheek? No fucking chance. Coward.
King Tech Quadafi:
The entire War on Terror is a joke. It is a completel fabrication.
