5. This is why we have underwear bombers trying to
Edited on Thu Dec-31-09 12:49 AM by sabrina 1
get revenge. Just as we are doing in Afghanistan, or at least that was the reason for the support for this invasion. Someone killed our people, and now we've gone wild around the world, killing as many people as we can.

I don't know why it's so hard for Americans in general to understand that if you kill people's children and elderly parents, you can expect them to react the same way we did. Why don't wesee our reaction as the same as theirs? We call them terrorists, but to them we are far more successful terrorists.

More dead children. What is it for? I do NOT buy this 'they are Al Queda'. I remember the Zarqawi scam all too well. And airc, when Bush was in charge, we argued that you cannot kill them all and each time you kill more you are creating more enemies. Is that really what our government wants? Maybe it is. They have replaced the 'commie' scare with an enemy that can always be conjured up to make sure our deadly and profitable war machine is never idle.
