    Thanks, Joe.
    How does the 98 pound weakling deal with the big bully in the playground who beats him up and steals his lunch money? He either sits there and takes it or comes up behind him one day with a pick handle and smashes him in the back of the head.

    I understand Palestinian suicide attacks too. It's all they have. They're battling one bully backed by a bigger bully.

    I think the answer to stopping terrorism isn't more violence but diplomacy and negotiation.

    Call me a peacemonger but thats what I think.

        You have two LARGE leaps of logic in your arguments:

        1)The first one is that (and boy how it changes from disarming Iraq to Liberating the Iraqi people, now back to "Disarming Iraq) you make it sound like an OPEN AND SHUT case that Iraq was either involved directly with the 9/11 attacks or funding such terrorist attacks. It is your speculation..not fact. There is STILL no strong evidence of a connection between Sadam and the militant muslims who attacked/are planning to attack the U.S.

        2)We showed the Muslim nations that we will kick their butts if they do anything we don't like by sending in troops and occupying their lands? YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS! (in my best John McEnroe voice). Where the fuck are we going to come up with that manpower, weaponry, and most of all MONEY to accomplish such a hurculean task? It is a fool's dream to think the United States can shut down one muslim nation after another. And even if we could, it's been done before..and it's called Colonialism!

            I do not believe that Saddam/Iraq had anything to do with 9/11. He made himself a target (a thorn in our side for 12 years) and as I stated Iraq is strategically located for us to confront other known enemy nations in that part of the world, ie Iran to one side and Syria to the other and whoever else chooses to become one, or cannot control their people.

            2)We showed the Muslim nations that we will kick their butts if they do anything we don't like by sending in troops and occupying their lands? YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS!

            We put sixteen million people in uniform, with less than half the current population, during the Second World War. We fought that war with a fraction of the current GNP and that was a "hurculean task", but we did it.

            I doubt that we will have to shut down one Muslim nation after another. The leaders of the nations will get the message and begin to police/control their people.

            By the way it is not called "Colonialism" it is called defense.

                more realist than apologist. it's understanding why it happened not condoning it.. theres a difference.
                saying that a terrorist attack on australia is more likely because of the actions of our government in foreign policy (attacking Iraq) is basic common sense.. when we get another terrorist attack on our people and say 1000 people die, I'll be able to say quite firmly that our actions in Iraq and East Timor are large factors.. It won't however mean that because I know they are part of the equation that it's an apologist position, or stop it from being a bad thing. It's nothing to be ashamed of, or unpatriotic or whatever, it's just the cold hard truth.. theres a reason terrorists don't give a fuck about the Swiss.

                        Again..apples & oranges. In WWII, we were pushing foreign powers BACK, and then closing them down. We were not occupying the lands we fought in. We turned those lands over to the people who were rightfully the owners. We also had the entire civilized world WITH US in that endeavor. When we ended in Germany, the country was divided up into 4 sectors occupied by the 4 largest industrial nations on earth at the time. Taking over Syria, Iran & Libya in addition to Iraq is NOT the same thing as defeating Nazi Germany. We are not physically CAPABLE of occupying countries for years as you suggest we are.

                        "I doubt that we will have to shut down one Muslim nation after another. The leaders of the nations will get the message and begin to police/control their people."

                        Oh..they got the message all right. The vast majority of Islamic nations HATE US! Did you happen to see 60 mins last Sunday nite? There is fear that even King Hussein of Jordan could be in trouble because of his support..no matter how tentative.

                        And is it ever Pollyanaesque to say "Golly Gee. You saw what we did to the bad guys in Iraq. So you better control your own people!" (As if any country can truly control all of their people!)

                        Hmm..wait a min..I thought that's why we went in in the first place to Iraq..to liberate people from a terrible police state! NOW..you advocate OTHER nations doing the same to "control their people!"????????? (that's what they would have to do to be successful!)

                        So we would have to destroy any seeds of democracy (controlling their people..i.e. police state), in order to save our country?

                        You're right..that's not Colonialism..that's just plain BARBARIC!

                            That's all they have? Mate, they've been supported by all the Arab states and the former Soviet Union for fucking years. Don't give me that b.s., that's all they have. Why don't Arab states put so much more of an effort in cultivating terrorism than actually alleviating the suffering of the Palestinian people.

                            You're an idealist. You've never lived in the middle east. You don't know or understand the history. You believe the lies you hear in the media which completely present an imbalanced story in favor of the Palestinains.

                                You do not live in the real wolrd if you think the USA will stand by and allow itself to be repeatedly attacked without responding in a massive way. Thus far our response to 9/11 has been a rather suppressed response.

                                By the way I did not take the time to rip your post , as many of your points are not valid, because I am growing somewhat tired.

                                            That would increase terrorism, not decrease it. Negotiating with terrorists sends a clear message that terrorism is an effective political tool.

                                                I think that there will be more "terrorist" attacks against American assests abroad and very possibly upon the mainland. I also think that there will be greater hatred spawned in the Muslim world and it will probably iincrease the roles of existing "terrorist orgs" as well as spawn new orgs.

                                                I also think, and have previously so stated, that the take down of Iraq is about strategic positioning and a show of force, as being the primary reasons for this war, among multiple reasons (not the least of which Saddam has been a thorn in our side for 12 years). We are basically showing the muslim nations that we will not tolerate "terroists" and sending a loud message that if you do not control your people, we will control your nations.

                                                This administration made it clear, and it would have been difficult to make it any more clear, that we are engaged in a war, a war that the Administration said could last as long as ten years (others have said as long as 20-30 years). The Administration made it clear that if you harbour, feed, assist in any way, "terroists" we will consider you as being "terrorists". This message, though not specifically stated as thus, was directed at the muslim nations. Bottom line, if acts of terrosim against the US are continued, ultimately, for every American death there will be a 1000 Muslim deaths and more Muslim nations taken down.

                                                We Americans, and the world, will have to see what future events happen and what future Administrations do, but I have little doubt that, if there are continued attacks, particulary against the mainland, other Administrations will take nations down.
                                                I think you're confusing this war with the raids on Taliban and Al Queda bases in Afghanistan. This war is supposed to be about freeing the Iraqi people from a tyrant who poses a military threat to other middle-eastern countries.

                                                        I remembered it was about protecting the US from attacks... by removing those famous WMD ...

                                                        BTW, any news on Osama???
                                                        I know that Asspimple is stoopid ... As he says, it is a FACT !

                                                        But I can't figure out how he can breathe or type , at the same time ....

I have already pointed out to you that the USA put sixteen million people into uniform, with less than half the current population and a fraction of the current GNP, during the Second World War.

                                                                                        It's not me that thinks we have a million man standing Army that can invade and occupy Syria, Iran, Libya, etc.
                                                                                        It is not me either.

                                                                                        It's not me that thinks we have the firepower/money/resourdes to take over any Muslim nation we don't like!
                                                                                        It is not a question of like or dislike, it is a question of becoming a percieved enemy.

                                                                                        2/3rd of our Infantry is right NOW in Iraq/Kuwait! That's a "suppressed response?"
                                                                                        Yes.

                                                                                        And it's not me that thinks we have the right to invade ANY country simply because we don't like the way they run their government/country.
                                                                                        Like or dislike has nothing to do with it. Being a percieved enemy does.
                                                                                        When you're running down my country hoss...you're walking on the fighting side of me!

I have already pointed out to you that the USA put sixteen million people into uniform, with less than half the current population and a fraction of the current GNP, during the Second World War.

                                                                                                    Do you really think that the USA will stand by and allow itself to be repeatedly attacked?
                                                                                                    You really do live in the past. It's PRESENT day, and it's NOT WWII! In WWII, we had STRONG allies fighting WITH US! Now we have only a few thousand brits and a couple thousand Aussies.

                                                                                                    And as for your repeated figure of putting 16 million into "uniform"..let's break that down a bit:

                                                                                                    1)That number is not 16 million at ONE time..it was over a course of several years!
                                                                                                    2)Because you are in "uniform" does not mean you are on the front lines fighting. Well over HALF of that number were purely support personnel..with most of them stationed in the U.S.

                                                                                                    But again, you're point of going back to WWII is totally irrelevant to today's conflicts. And I notice you even left out the Koren War (where the best we could do was a "draw"), Vietnam..where we lost.

                                                                                                    To say we put 16 million in uniform back in the '40s does not equate to front line invasion, conquering, and occupying several Muslim countries TODAY.

                                                                                                      Comment

                                                                                                            FYI I am fully aware that The Second World War is over. I am fully aware that the US had allies. If there was a point to be made, you failed.

                                                                                                            And as for your repeated figure of putting 16 million into "uniform"..let's break that down a bit:

                                                                                                            1)That number is not 16 million at ONE time..it was over a course of several years!
                                                                                                            Wrong. When the Second World War ended we had sixteen million people in uniform.


                                                                                                            2)Because you are in "uniform" does not mean you are on the front lines fighting. Well over HALF of that number were purely support personnel..with most of them stationed in the U.S.
                                                                                                            FYI I am fully aware what percentage of forces are support and what are combatants. I spent 12 years in the Army. FYI it is approximately 90% support and 10% combatants.

                                                                                                            But again, you're point of going back to WWII is totally irrelevant to today's conflicts. And I notice you even left out the Koren War (where the best we could do was a "draw"), Vietnam..where we lost.
                                                                                                            Wrong. Truman made a political decision to hold at the 38th Parallel, which was the border prior to North Korea invading the South.

                                                                                                            Wrong. There was not a military loss in Vietnam and we could have ended the war in one day with the use of Nukes, within thirty days with 24/7 conventional bombing (11 days of 24/7 brought them to the peace table), within ninety days with ground forces if the military would have been allowed to invade the North.

                                                                                                            It was politicians that micro managed the war and extended the war and it was politicians that agreed to withdraw our forces. There was not a military loss in any form, but a political decision was made to withdraw our forces.

                                                                                                            To say we put 16 million in uniform back in the '40s does not equate to front line invasion, conquering, and occupying several Muslim countries TODAY.
                                                                                                            Of course you are right. The USA does not have the power to defeat a bunch of third world nations. The USA is at their mercy. We will allow them to attack us at will. We are helpless. I am making arrangements at the local Mosque today to become a Muslim. Allah be praised.

And we did not occupy FRANCE, BELGIUM, NETHERLANDS, ITALY that we fought in! The "natives" took full control. And in the end..we only occupied 1/4th of the nation of Germany. Again, totally different from going it solo against the rest of the Islamic nations!

You obviously have much more military intelligence and expertise on that time period readily available on your computer than the combined military/political establishment had combined!

The USA does not have the power to defeat a bunch of third world nations. The USA is at their mercy. We will allow them to attack us at will. We are helpless.

                                                                                                                                        Final tally...16 million people in uniform when the Second World War ended.

                                                                                                                                        And we did not occupy FRANCE, BELGIUM, NETHERLANDS, ITALY that we fought in! The "natives" took full control. And in the end..we only occupied 1/4th of the nation of Germany.
                                                                                                                                        Thank you for the information...but I am fully aware of what countries we occupied and did not occupy.

                                                                                                                                        Again, totally different from going it solo against the rest of the Islamic nations!

There was not a military loss in Vietnam and we could have ended the war in one day with the use of Nukes, within thirty days with 24/7 conventional bombing (11 days of 24/7 brought them to the peace table), within ninety days with ground forces if the military would have been allowed to invade the North."

                                                                                                                                        And as for the rest of your war plan for Vietnam..MAN..why didn't the combined military genius over a 10 year period come up with the same solution you just did in 30 secs? You obviously have much more military intelligence and expertise on that time period readily available on your computer than the combined military/political establishment had combined!

The politicians micro managed the war for political reasons, but I have already explained this to you. Consider yourself as having been educated. You can thank me later.

If you think the use of Nukes would have ended the war in VietNam in one day with NO ill effects, then it's no wonder you think the U.S. has the ability to attack & occupy at will.

                                                                                                                                                    Those are your words. If you think the use of Nukes would have ended the war in VietNam in one day with NO ill effects, then it's no wonder you think the U.S. has the ability to attack & occupy at will.

                                                                                                                                                    Your arguments are not rational nor practical. The art of warfare is NOT your forte.

                                                                                                                                                                And so because you were in the military (and your fathers before you), NATURALLY you inherit the cunning and forethought in military planning and strategy! Glad your chosen field wasn't medicine if all your fathers before you were doctors too!

                                                                                                                                                                And with ALL of this incredible hereditary line in you, you deny you brought up the use of "NUKES" in Vietnam, and yet maintain that the United States is quite capable of conquering the Islamic world if we choose to do so.

                                                                                                                                                                Like I said before, I'm glad you are not in a decision making capacity in the upper echelons of the military.

                                                                                                                                                                    And so because you were in the military (and your fathers before you), NATURALLY you inherit the cunning and forethought in military planning and strategy! Glad your chosen field wasn't medicine if all your fathers before you were doctors too!

                                                                                                                                                                    And with ALL of this incredible hereditary line in you, you deny you brought up the use of "NUKES" in Vietnam, and yet maintain that the United States is quite capable of conquering the Islamic world if we choose to do so.

                                                                                                                                                                    Like I said before, I'm glad you are not in a decision making capacity in the upper echelons of the military.
                                                                                                                                                                    You left out that I have been a student of the art of war and military history for most of my 45 years.

                                                                                                                                                                    You have a comprehension problem. No where have I denied that I brought up the use of Nukes in Vietnam. Also no where did I advocate the use of Nukes in Vietnam. Your education is finished, your learning capacity has reached its limitation. You can thank me later.

Why don't Arab states put so much more of an effort in cultivating terrorism than actually alleviating the suffering of the Palestinian people.

They would be fine. However, there's no assistance from the Arab world for a real Palistine. They give them aprox. 100 million a year, whereas the US gives them around 90 million. That's fucking pathetic. All they care about is complaining.

Thus far our response to 9/11 has been a rather suppressed response.

Negotiating with terrorists sends a clear message that terrorism is an effective political tool.

At that time if we would have executed everyone on those lists, terrorism wouldn't have worked now would it.

At that time if we would have executed everyone on those lists, terrorism wouldn't have worked now would it.
