what you think about USA terrorism war ?
604086
this "crusade against terrorism" is just a lie and hidden tool to control the middle east and its oil. The actual US governement had said officially that its goal is to maintain USA hegemony in all ways, using everything they can (deinformation, mediatic manipulation ,lies, wars, military attacks, etc.). \nThis attitude is creating much more anger in all the world, and especially the in the muslim world, who feel the main to be targety. This anger mush a lot of muslims in the dark side of islamist terrorism.  The "war" against terrorism creates more terrorism..

I'm going to have to politely disagree on the grounds that the mainstream media, in Bush's corner, has deceived most everyone, in the US at least. Which isn't going to last forever, might I add.\n\nMountains of evidence supports that the "war on terror" is just a big farce!\n\nIf you have time, you may want to listen to some alternative views on what's actually going on:

there's a war on terror, but we're definetely not doing too well.\nwe're focusing on the middle east. what about countries like North Korea??? they have weapons, and guess what, we're not doing anything about them.\nand then there are the terrorists in our own country. remember the Oklahoma City bombing and Tim McVeigh?

First of all,  your question is way too long, and way too much reading, and I admit,  I didnt read it all.   But I think I read enough to get the jist of it.   My take on the war is,  it was an inevitable response.   Anytime someone does a 9/11 type of attack on any nation  there will be war.   It doesn't matter whether its against the U.S. or Bum-fuk Egypt,  there will be consequences.  Period.  Bin Laden did more to harm his organization than he did to help it.   His actions started what I see as a chain reaction, (or a snowball rolling downhill)  in waking up the nations of the world about the growing threat of Islamic extremism.    And although nobody wants to come out and say it,  the so called moderate muslims support the destruction of westernism.   Both the extremist and the moderate muslim despise western culture.   Moderate muslims support the extremists goal of driving Israel into the sea.    All of this is seen and known by all,  but politically correctness still has a hold on many a so-called intellectual minded people who are more afraid of being seen as intolerant or racist, then calling it as it is.    But that attitude is slowly changing, even in Europe.   \n\nPolls.   Has anyone reading this ever actually been polled?   I haven't.   I read about all these polls:  thousand of them.   And I never once have been polled on anything political.   Oh i get telephone polls on what kind of pizza i prefer, or what kind of gasoline i put in my tank,  but I have never been asked about anything substantial.   It makes me go...hmmmmm.   Are these polls real?   I doubt it.    Too me,  I see polls as an attempt by media sources to influence the way we think.   Poll questions are often slanted to get the desired affect.  Kind of like when lawyer tailors questions not to get at the real truth,  but to obtain the desired affect upon the jury.   I don't trust polls.\n\nNobody can accurately really know what Americans think.   There used to be a term called "the silent majority",  if any of you remember that.   The majority of americans live common ordinary lives and are not screaming insults at our President in a time of war,  like Cindy Sheehan.   But Cindy is getting all of the media attention,  why is that?   She represents the reactionary minority.\n\nI am sure if university students were polled, and asked simple questions like for example,  where on the map is Iraq?,  most wouldn't have a clue.   Or ,  who is the secretary of state,  they wouldn't know.   Simple questions.   Yet they are the ones that protest.   Why don't they find out more about what they are protesting before opening their mouths?  Because they want to be activists.  They want to change the world.  They see america as the ememy, not radical islam.   Many Americans have become so spoiled rotten while driving their BMWs chit chatting about american idol on their cell phones, that they despise america.   They do this not realizing that our brave soldiers have died to give them their freedom of speech,  their starbucks lattes,  their gay rights, their baggy pants and rap music.   They have all these things and they dont care who to get them.    I guess sometimes one must lose it to appreciate it.\n\nBin Laden said America does not have the stomach for war, and he was half right.   Our military is capable and willing,  but our elitist liberal democrats are not.   You know the ones?  The ones that would rather negotiate with terrorists.  The ones that would rather put our troops in prison rather  than the terrorists that murder innocent civilians.   The one that would rather blame Bush than Bin Laden.   The ones that would rather see Israel crushed than anger Arab Muslims.    The ones that tried to appease Hitler during WW2.    The ones that drive big SUVs and ride in private jets and at the same time complain about global warming.   \n\nYes, 9/11 and the war are linked.   Many people say it isnt,  but that doesnt surprise me.

Subject: Muslims, terrorist and the USA : A different spin on Iraq war.\n\nThis WAR is for REAL! \nDr. Vernon Chong, Major General, USAF, Retired\n\nTo get out of a difficulty, one usually must go through it. Our country is now facing the most serious threat to its existence, as we know it, that we have faced in your lifetime and mine (which includes WWII).\n\nThe deadly seriousness is greatly compounded by the fact that there are very few of us who think we can possibly lose this war and even fewer who realize what losing really means.\n\nFirst, let's examine a few basics:\n\n1. When did the threat to us start?\n\nMany will say September 11, 2001. \nThe answer as far as the United States is concerned is 1979, 22 years prior to September 2001, with the following attacks on us:\n\n* Iran Embassy Hostages, 1979;\n* Beirut , Lebanon Embassy 1983;\n* Beirut , Lebanon Marine Barracks 1983;\n* Lockerbie , Scotland Pan-Am flight to New York 1988;\n* First New York World Trade Center attack 1993;\n* Dhahran , Saudi Arabia Khobar Towers Military complex 1996;\n* Nairobi , Kenya US Embassy 1998;\n* Dares Salaam , Tanzania US Embassy 1998;\n* Aden , Yemen USS Cole 2000;\n* New York World Trade Center 2001;\n* Pentagon 2001.\n\n(Note that during the period from 1981 to 2001 there were 7,581 terrorist attacks worldwide).\n\n\n2. Why were we attacked?\n\nEnvy of our position, our success, and our freedoms. The attacks happened during the administrations of Presidents Carter, Reagan, Bush 1, Clinton and Bush 2. We cannot fault either the Republicans or Democrats as there were no provocations by any of the presidents or their immediate predecessor, President Ford.\n\n3. Who were the attackers?\nIn each case, the attacks on the US were carried out by Muslims.\n\n4. What is the Muslim population of the World? \n25%.\n\n5. Isn't the Muslim Religion peaceful? \n\nHopefully, but that is really not material. There is no doubt that the predominately Christian population of Germany was peaceful, but under the dictatorial leadership of Hitler (who was also Christian), that made no difference. You either went along with the administration or you were eliminated. There were 5 to 6 million Christians killed by the Nazis for political reasons (including 7,000 Polish priests). \n(see "http://www.Nazis.testimony.co.uk/7-a.htm)"\n\nThus, almost the same number of Christians were killed by the Nazis, as the six million holocaust Jews who were killed by them, and we seldom heard of anything other than the Jewish atrocities. Although Hitler kept the world focused on the Jews, he had no hesitancy about killing anyone who got in his way of exterminating the Jews or of taking over the world - German, Christian or any others.\n\nSame with the Muslim terrorists. They focus the world on the US , but kill all in the way -- their own people or the Spanish, French or anyone else. The point here is that just like the peaceful Germans were of no protection to anyone from the Nazis, no matter how many peaceful Muslims there may be, they are no protection for us from the terrorist Muslim leaders and what they are fanatically bent on doing -- by their own pronouncements -- killing all of us "infidels." I don't blame the peaceful Muslims. What would you do if the choice was shut up or die?\n\n6. So who are we at war with?\n\nThere is no way we can honestly respond that it is anyone other than the Muslim terrorists. Trying to be politically correct and avoid verbalizing this conclusion can well be fatal. There is no way to win if you don't clearly recognize and articulate who you are fighting.\n\n\nSo with that background, now to the two major questions:\n\n1. Can we lose this war?\n\n2. What does losing really mean?\n\nIf we are to win, we must clearly answer these two pivotal questions:\n\nWe can definitely lose this war, and as anomalous as it may sound, the major reason we can lose is that so many of us simply do not fathom the answer to

We are in a global war on Terror. \nWe are taking action.  \n\nUnfortunately our president thought it was best to "Sell" this war piecemeal "war in Iraq, followed by war in Afghanistan" etc.\n\nHad he been more forthcoming, more people would be in support. \n\nThe truth is: we are in a global war on terror that will last decades or until every Islamic country has a stable government that can police their own fringe radicals.\n\nIt needs to be done, and it is being done.\n\nThough I'm not so sure it is being done the right way.  I'm a bit more cynical.  \n\nI say:\n\nInstall friendly dictators in every nation that poses a risk (They know how to deal with these problems) Democracy is beyond the abilities of most of the populations we're talking about.\n\nDevelop an alternative form of Energy and embargo all mid-east oil.\n\nGive Israel free reign to defend themselves as they see fit. \n\nYou'll see a mid-east that begs for our presence, our moderating effect on Israel and our $$ !

Dear, \nI am very grateful for your kind contact. My question’s hading was War against Terrorism.\nI strongly condemn terrorists, they are causing great lose of innocent lives. So very person who has a soft corner in its heart for terrorist may be also called terrorist. \n\nI respect your opinion, everybody should fight against terrorism. I believe Americans are most cultured and well mannered people, you talked me in a different way? If you do not agree my point of view, we can discuss that. But you threat me to hit my country? Everybody surely loves its country, and Pakistan is playing a vital role in removing terrorism and is a front line fighter against terrorism. \n\nBut on the other hand can you justify the deaths of innocent child and innocent peoples, we are also humans.\n\nIf you think somebody is performing any task which is not right, and then you should prove that he is criminal, if proving without that, you take any action, any decision by your self, and the whole world protest against this, so you should review your act.\n\nIf we want to live a peaceful life we should remove the cause of terrorism. Otherwise you threat, so be informed nobody can remove terrorism by force. We know how to defend our country; you can buy only few people but not whole nation.\n\nAnyhow thank you for your opinion. \nLooking for your reply.\nSincerely \n\nImran

I believe Bush is different from terrorist.  They are fighting the only way they can to try and free their countries from our economic and military domination, fighting for their homeland and families; and Bush is making our young people fight, die and kill innocent people for oil profits for the wealthy.

It's more than terrorism. It's genocide, plan and simple and if we weren't tied down in Iraq and Afghanistan, I"d say yes. However, I kinda remember a movie called "Black Hawk Down" and pretty sure we would just get caught in the middle, be somehow blamed for the whole mess and be attacked by both sides before it was all over.  Maybe it's time America looked out for America and get back to taking care of Americans, instead of throwing away money and lives trying to help others that, in return label us as occupiers and turn on us.

US will never succeed. Like it`s needless saying that we can prevent the bad efffects of globalization. \n\nWorld terrorism is quite a complex problem nowadays. And of course it encompasses not only anti-US movements in the Third World Countries, but also the inner terrorism in developed ones.\nLet`s take Britain, for example. A lot have been said about the origin of the sucide bombers in London Underground. And very important point is that they were Britts. Immigrants, but brits.Brits in their style, manners,views.\n\nTerrorism is not just muslim affair t all.It`s wrong statement made up only to create an enemy,which will unite a nation. I think government easily uses this tactic:we need a "small victirious war".\n\nBut the origins of the terrorism lay deep inside the structure of the society. It is probably us, who create reall terrorists. Us and people we elect. You are absolutely right about iranian family hatred with America. I think you may be also interested in the book "Why world hates America?" (unfortunattely, I have forgotten the author). \n\nDo you remembtr Huntington`s "Clashes of civilizations"? Don`t you find it somehow coincides with today situation?

It is a fact that US went into this war completely unprepared for the insurgency. US has never won a significant victory against an enenmy that employs guerilla style warfare and urban suicide terrorist attacks. Infact if you look at it no country, even Isreal has been able to do that with the Palestinian struggle. \n\nMaybe the US should consult Putin and see how he handles Chechnya. He seems to have better than average success so far.

One thing overlooked by most Americans is that Bin Laden stated one clear goal in his rants.. .that was - "declaration of war against the Americans occupying land of the two holy places- expel the infidels fro the arab peninsula" - Osama Bin Laden\n\nIn April of 2003 Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld announced (very quietly of course) that America was withdrawing armed troops form Saudi Arabia.  \n\nThis overlooked capitulation, like Reagan in 1984 capitulating to Hizbollah by getting the Marines out of Lebanon, is proof that terrorism works... \n\nUnfortunately, actually fighting terrorism is not on the top of the list of US priorities (stealing control over the worlds oil is) and we will be hit again, probably worse, and the people of the US are not to blame, thier requests (9-11 familes requests, 9-11 commission's suggestions) have been ignored.  The "homeland security" is a joke, a way to launder money and siphon funds from the US tax payer to elites... so we are basically set up to be hurt again. \n\nThe Vietnam syndrome is still alive from, namely, Vietnam... and some of us "will never forget" and this is why we should all do everything we can t end this horrid war.  Lose the machismo and admit we can't"win", save some lives, give some kid thier daddy back, instead of having that poor soul die for this stupid regime in power right now in the US and thier cronies (including Bin Laden). \n\npeace.

They're battling terrorism which has put fear into the hearts of all Americans - how can we be free if we're not free from the fear of terrorism?  Though there are some things I don't agree with about this war, I do agree with that much

Terrorism is a relatively new phenomenon, many still believe everyone has a conscience.  I am with you, these people need to be dealt with differently, bottom line saving innocent lives..

I don't like the idea of war but who are we to say anything about it.\n\n The brave men and women who are there or who was there are the only ones who should have a voice in it.  And sir my son was one of them Marines over there and he was hurt But he wants to go back cause he says the people over there needs them so I stand behind our military not our government or any bleeding heart person who wasn't there!!!!

You don't.  That's the nature of terrorism.  This whole concept of a "war on terrorism" is laughable, because you fight terrorism, but you can't win.  Citizens of a democratic republic such as the USA expect to have too many freedoms, and you can't competently fight terrorism without infringing upon some of those freedoms.\n\nTerrorism and terrorist acts have always been around and always will be.  Anybody remember the Boston Tea Party?  Guess what folks, that was an act of terrorism.
