Actaully Sistani over there over the cartoons said he didnt like them but it was wrong to resort to violence in protest.
Ok, what's your OPINION of what we're doing? Blazing some trail of freedom over there? Lets watch you dodge this.

I like the first plan.. Wanted that since 9/12/01.
Speaks well of what they think of the sacrifice of our finest to bring them freedom from a monster. So now they feed upon each other...
Could you then explain to me the Moral reasoning that would justify killing several hundred million.innocent men, women, and children. My GOd you make Stalin look like a Saint
Survival of the western world. We have to deal enough damage that they drop the threat, same as we had to do to Japan.
