The fact of the matter is they are fanatical. They don't think along the lines of "you live your life, I'll live mine". In their eyes the US and all western civ. do not deserve to exist due to our beliefs and life style.
You can't just flex a little and think they will stay down. They know they stand no chance in a military sense. So they result to encouraging political and public opposition to the US threats of war. My question is have these people forgotten about 9-11? They say if "we take out Iraq we will bring on more attacks". WRONG!! Terrorism on that scale requires an incredible amount of planning, personell and FUNDING!!! Take away the political support which also gives the major monetary support (private party support has been greatly reduced due to the investigations following 9-11) and you greatly reduce the threat of terrorism. As a matter of fact the greatest threat is from US CITIZENS who sympathise and commit acts of terrorism or sabotage. In vietnam one of the greatest sources of info for the other side was US sympathisers working in or with the GOV. Yeah, france and all those other countrys want to scream peace....its easy to say don't shoot the hawk when you're not a rabbit. They are not a high profile target like the US. Plus it delivers a message that the US isn't just full of empty threats. Then there is the argument that the Iraq has been good all this time why are we using 9-11 as an excuse to pick on them? Sorry but that is also false. Anyone who is in the Navy, and has been to the middle east since the war ended can tell you what a crock that is. Just because the news dosen't report it, dosen't mean it dosen't go on. There are constant games of chicken and minor conflicts all the time........... trust me on this one. Now, I'm not some "gung-ho kill em all" type. I just believe in first strike defense. We all know the best way to fix a problem is to not let it happen in the first place. I'm not going into the "oil" reasons. I know they exist but if a little more security is achieved in the process of wiping out sadam, not IRAQ, SADAM, then I don't care about the underlieing reasons. I know this is long but I had to get that off my chest.

whoever laughed at that cartoon
**** you and get the hell out of my country.
if you dont think america is the best country on earth then get the **** out we dont want you here.
ungrateful bastards.
i am with 9base3.
do i think we should strike first not necessarily but iraq well er the nation of islam isnt gonna sit there with their thumb up their ***.
their whole reason for living these days is just to kill and destroy as much of america as possible.
be it with words or actions.
something has to be done and if we arent gonna do it then no one is. **** the UN. they are a bunch of sympathetic **** who wont do a damn thing. and even if they decide to who is gonna do all their work for them.......... you guessed it the USA.
if it wasnt for this country than the rest of the world would prob be a giant shithole.
i hate talking about this cause i get all pissed off and say things that i probably shouldnt.
but everyone else is putting in their 2 cents.

It just hurts when you think of how many people hate us for **** that we (the little, tax paying people) had nothing to do with. I love this country and all that it offers... (course the language thing is starting to **** me off, but that's another topic)
I will stand up for America and salute my flag forever. No ******* America hater, or punk *** terrorist will ever bring this country down.
I know war is bad. People die. But people die of other **** every day. Drugs kill. Disease kills. CARS kill. And dammit if I have to kill so that I can watch my mother die because she got to live to 100.... THEN SO BE IT.
Oh, and I love NOPISTONS! HOOAH!
