"I will never cower before any master nor bend to any threat"
KHOBAR, Saudi Arabia - Tens of American, European and other hostages were released Sunday and a gunman believed to be the lead Islamic militant holding them was arrested, a Saudi security official said, adding that two other gunmen were "in the process of being arrested."
We are the "Stotters" who make ourselves aware of the enemy who wishes to do us harm
J, the condemnation was not by vets of the thread, I would think SP2 would take heed of that?
The "condemnation" was actually a criticism of a post which SP2 wrote. The post said that there was a date for the attack in Jihad litterature, which was too frightening to post.
Now---LET'S MOVE ON.
I won't be posting anything on this thread again after the attacks I've received in Freepmail.I don't know who flamed SP2BF via freepmail. The whole thing is just turning my stomach. This is probably one of the most critical times since the thread has started and we are infighting like never before. What's the saying? Something's rotten in Denmark?

I can't think of many good reasons to disrupt the public tone and spirit of the thread for selfish, brittle, lopsided, limited, and/or personal perspectives which are likely to be greatly flawed
Bump!
STANDING OVATION FOR RUMSFELD IN D.C. - Bush Hails U.S. War Dead and Veterans
Actually, I think they hired too many, too fast. Lots of people standing around with no explicit tasks to accomplish. TSA overstaffed early and they have been cutting back. The money has been burned on unnecessary staff and office buildings without actually getting anything accomplished...except the jobs program desired by certain left wing legislators.
The bridge monitoring work has a definite set of bridges to monitor, but the $$$ just isn't there to do the work.
I would say that calling someone a liar is a little more than a criticism. I'm having a hard time moving on after one of our most valuable assets to the threat just packed up and left. I don't have a dog in this fight, but I don't like what happened.
This is ridiculous and so unnecessary!
I admit it. I can be a bit dense at times. What do you mean by agent provocateurs? I'm caught up on the thread so I know about the squabble and Indie leaving, etc. but I'm totally lost with agent provocateurs. Thanks.
How mature are you behaving? I am angry now because I feel this will be taking us down as a group and all the hard work we've put into this for SEVEN months!
JR,
We can handle this, you do not need to be dragged into it like this, I am sorry for this hassle
MOSTLY
I just think satan used common human failings, flaws and emotions to cause discord and division
ON A VERY POWERFUL THREAD HURTING satan's kingdom and stoolies the Jihadi's
A LOT.
Very effective tactic, of satan's, sadly.
It is ridiculous that we should be in the middle of all first this grade school mess, when our objective here first and foremost is our love for protecting our country and each other. To jeopardize this, a handful of people is just wrong!
MUCH AGREE!!!
MAYBE that was evident?
BTW, I just intended those items for raw material for Mama D to pick and choose from or not at all
as she complied with your writing request!!! LOL. They were just kind of rattling around in my head and I thought why not share them for whatever it's worth--the thread can choose what's worth using!
Anyway--agree with you.
LUB
As a mere lurker to this thread, as one whose thoughts
and comments are not worthy enough to be considered side
by side of those of the TM inner circle, here are my two
cents worth on the recent turmoil on the thread:
1.) After 50K plus posts going back to thread one, after
unimaginable personal hours sacrificed on research and
thought, has the inner circle reached a point that
everyone needs time off to recharge their mental
faculties? Does the TM need put on a week's haitus
so that it can come back fresher and stronger to
better address the threats against out nation?
2.) Tin Foil version: has the inner circle hit upon
something that is so sensitive to the nation's security
that threats been made to silence them?
You have my permission to flame and or zot me until your
heart is content, but I feel those thoughts are worth
expression at this time.
Sorry for the big words. An agent provocateur is someone who poses as a member of the "team" but is secretly doing little things to manipulate the "team" in other directions. Or trying to cause it to implode.
Yep, I pretty much agree with you.
HIT THE ABUSE BUTTON!
Take it private!
I for one am not going to watch all the hard work around here disintegrate or be demoralized as it has been, I'm just not!
"I" am not going anywhere , nor will I be bullied out of here -sad smiles- I hope you and all the other's feel the same, please?
