State of the Union

[WRXtranceformed]

Not a single terrorist attack on US soil since 9/11/01.
A new direction from there means, what?

Osama bin Laden is living under a rock in a dark cave, having not surfaced in years, if he's alive at all, while 95% of Al
Queda's top dogs are either dead or in custody, cooperating with US Intel.
A new direction from there means, what?

Several major terrorist attacks already thwarted by US and British Intel, including the recent planned attack involving 10
Jumbo Jets being exploded in mid-air over major US cities in order to celebrate the anniversary of the 9/11/01 attacks.
A new direction from there means, what?

Just as President Bush foretold us on a number of occasions, Iraq was to be made "ground zero" for the war on terrorism --
and just as President Bush said they would, terrorist cells from all over the region are arriving from the shadows of their hiding places and flooding in to Iraq in order to get their faces blown off by US Marines rather than boarding planes and heading to the United States to wage war on us here.
A new direction from there means, what?

I'm not one to get hugely involved in political discussions, because everyone has opinions, and as we all know opinions are like blah blah blah, everyone's got one. I will say that this is an EXTREMELY optimistic view of what's been going on with our aggressive foreign policy over Bush's term. That's putting it very lightly.

There is no way Bush nor his cronies are foolish/crazy/or even brilliant enough to invade a somewhat benign country that we pwned in the past just to use that as a staging ground to draw out more terrorists. If that truly is the case, I REALLY feel for our armed forces over there. Because they're not doing shit if that's the case.

Do you realize the scale of radical Muslim hatred towards us right now? It doesn't only include 20-30 year old men who have been trained at terrorism camps and are ready to become martyrs. It is their children as well, and their children's children who will continue hating us. It is AMERICAN and BRITISH CITIZENS who are plotting and funding a lot of these potential attacks. It is so fucking easy to carry out an attack that will affect a lot of people, and although we're doing a great job of catching most of them I wouldn't be surprised if we aren't hit again with another disaster. They walk out in the streets in Israel with bombs strapped to their chests and kill dozens, what makes you think this won't happen in the US if our enemy gets desperate enough?

To say this war is like Vietnam is putting this lightly... this is like Vietnam on a global scale. Something fundamentally has to change or this "threat" will never end.
