Good to see someone gets it.
I was just responding to someone who thought I shouldn't have posted it. agreed, not a new idea by any means. only that several factors, including the timing of the release of the tape, make this scenario a little more possible, in my mind anyway.
One question though, do you feel nothing will happen because nothing is being attempted or that we will stop them (again)? I agree with the latter, not the former. Ask the people of London if Bin Laden was just "pointlessly ranting".
The whole point of Shari'a law is to provide a structure and a rule for every little thing in life, even the government/religious leaders.
The idea of people doing their own thing and choosing what they want to do is anathema for Shari'a law. Any choice outside of Shari'a is evil.
Democracy and Islam do not necessarily HAVE to live together ; )
I tried to figure that one out for a long time after reading it. There is a Hartland, Michigan that is not far from Detroit, but that's probably stretching it.
Still laughing?
It's a good post. Thanks for providing it.
So it would look more like a european soccer match?
Yes. W needs to threaten them tomorrow with terrible losses if anything happens.
-Just shut up and take it
Just look at what they're doing in Iraq. They have no compunctions about killing their own. These animals simply do not value human life.
Rest assured the winner of the Super Bowl is the best football team in the world. I do find it amusing that they say world champion, but the fact is, many different organizations say that their champ is the world champ. (15 different boxing organizations, 2 major MMA groups, world cup, cricket...)
But there is no doubt about this, not one country could field a team that can compete with the US in football ( I dare to speculate that a conglomerate of countries couldnt field a team to beat us in football)(short of pirating our players). Youre living in fantasy land if you think that. We invented football and no one else has a prayer of beating us. USA in Turino. woohoo!
And tons of people around the world watch the Super Bowl, not as many as the world cup, but it is a significant number.
Ping!
Bin Laden said nothing about London. And a "prediction" years old does not count.
Al Queda's ability to produce another incident like 9/11 inside this nation is gone. It can blow up a couple of car bombs like in Iraq but that is about it. But should something like that happen it would produce a response they would not like.
OBL, the great strategist, believed that 9-11 would draw the US onto his home court where we would be defeated. This turkey could not be more wrong. And he paid for it with his life.
To the contrary I ridicule such fools.
I hope you're right.
So do I but if I am not there will be many ready to remind me I wasn't.
I think they are taking alot of hits over in Iraq and need to retaliate and so take this threat seriously. However, I believe the wiretapping and listening will prove to help stave off any major attacks since the NSA has been closely monitoring any activity. Plus, I have to believe that weapons and chemicals are also getting intense scrutiny that we don't hear about and for good reason.
AQ is not just on the run in Iraq but on its last legs internationally. Not just the US but other nations are finally getting serious.
Not that it will not be able to pull off a few attackes here and there but the Islamic world is waking up to the fact that AQ will bring nothing but ruin upon it. Bin Laden's theory has been proven wrong and it is clear that he has bitten off more than he could chew. But for his RAT allies we could finish off this bunch in fairly short order.
