It will eventually come, and it will unleash fury like you’ve never seen in this country. What we’re seeing here in the years of Obama, is an aftermath that will resonate for many many years.
You did, but not in any detail. Remember "From the halls of Montezuma, to the shores of Tripoli?" Tripoli was because of Muslim piracy in the Mediterranean, which was state supported.
The song we knew....the hisrory of the Places In the song werent brought up. It wasn’t until America was attacked in 2001...that I knew what the mention of Tripoli was about...
