Just six-months after Sept. 11 attacks, Teresa Heinz Kerry urged Americans to try to "understand the roots of international terror," while contending that the Sept. 11 attacks were best viewed an "isolated catastrophe."In a March 10, 2002 Boston Globe op-ed piece co-written with the late children's TV star Fred Rogers, the would-be first lady said: "We pray that one day we will view Sept. 11 as an isolated catastrophe, triggering a successful world campaign to try to understand the roots of international terror as well as to work cooperatively to remove it."
The rest of the Heinz Kerry editorial focused primarily on advice to parents on how to help their children cope with the 9/11 attacks.
It's not clear why she and her coauthor departed from the topic at hand to urge understanding for global terrorists.
So the Kerry foreign policy plan can honestly be called The Mr. Rogers Doctrine.
I suspect Tay Raise Ahhh's inbred weirdness is the reason Laura Bush did O'Reilly's program.
The Democrats can't fight that particular "contrast".
I think for the first time in history we need a "First Lady" debate. See those two debate would make the choice even clearer.
Until I kill you, torture your daughter and rape your son because they are infidels who slander Allah (all peace and blessings be upon him) by their very existence.
She still doesn't get it but......
We Remember
We saw the look upon his face,
Through whispers he was told.
We knew he felt just what we felt,
We wouldnt sit here cold.
We knew this time that we would act,
And not just turn our head.
This time wed go and wed go big,
We wouldnt bomb some shed.
He called them faceless cowards,
He vowed well hunt them down.
We watched as he spoke to us all,
Sincerely, not some clown.
His eyes assured us hed not rest,
Until they paid the price.
Yes wed turn over every stone,
Until they were on ice.
He warned the battle would be long,
That many would forget.
That some would say, lets just move on,
Not him, his mind was set.
We backed him then, we back him now,
The fight must still go on.
We cant back down, we cant let up,
Until the threat is gone.
God Bless our troops as on they fight,
Each day for them we pray.
We thank them all, for all they do,
They are the best, we say.
We will support our President,
Hes proven he will stand.
Well vote for Bush this coming fall,
We will protect this land.

One of the things Sun Tzu suggests.
Lemme guess. She's a corporate-internationalist liberal so the "root" is "poverty" which will be allieved by US taxpayers subsidizing food for "poor countries" purchased from Heinz subsidiaries.
This is great!
What she doesn't understand is that we are all targets of terrorist activity. You can't understand them and have them give you a hug. What a dingy.
Lemme guess. "She's a corporate-internationalist liberal so the "root" is "poverty" which will be allieved by US taxpayers subsidizing food for "poor countries" purchased from Heinz subsidiaries."
Which is probably the main reasons so many of her so called non profits push the enviral agenda to wipe out the small to medium farmers/ranchers in America.
LOL, you really cracked me up with that one.
"HEINZ-KERRY: Yeah. But you know, Europeans have lived that way and other people around the world have lived that way. Americans have been very safe, at least as a nation."
So in other words: "America, put some ice on it."
We need to understand international terror in the same way that an exterminator needs to understand the life cycle of rats.
I think I do understand "the roots of international terror." They hate us. They want to kill us. It doesn't matter what we say or what we do: they will still hate us and want to kill us. It's part of their religion, and they teach it at "madrassas" and mosques. I understand very well, thank you.
Terror attacks against the USA will stop not then the USA "understands" the terrorists but when the terrors understand the USA.
"He is not disgusted only with the Islamists - the term sounds almost neutral, but is specific and derogatory - but also with those liberals who would suggest they have some sympathy for the aims of the militants, or have, thanks to hamfisted operations like Guantanamo Bay, what Sifaoui would call an overdeveloped sense of the rights of the individual."
Sifaoui is an Algerian Muslim who infiltrated the Paris Islamofascists. I think he has Teresa in mind.
