Proof positive that this war is 100% not the fault of the US or our foreign policy

I always had a fear that China (maybe with their "little buddy" N. Korea) will get eventually into it with us. But I figured we could court Russia to contain them (a reverse Nixon).

But then, I had the very comforting thought:

UNLEASE JAPAN

That little island will mincemeat them all.

BUT, I never considered India. In my past eccumental naivety, I always figured I'd probably stand with the tradion of Moses over any polytheitic pagan tradition. I now got to rethink this! (even though the Caste System isn't much better than Taliban rule, and I'd like to support the -official- Pakistani government to the extent that they cooperate with exterminating the Al-Cockroacha.) But India is the height of civility compared to the devils we are facing now - chant that mantra!

NO!!!!!!! Don't "save your posts..."! Keep saying it over and over.....until they get it!!

[tallhappy]

You are right, but...

Did you get that all you liberals and leftists

It's not just liberals and leftists, you left out Libertarians.

I am trying to post a reply, and everytime I get to the Post function, it won't let me and I get the following message:

Before you may post this message, the following must be corrected: Could not find anybody named 'Michael12001'

What the heck is going on?

[Winfield]

Who are you callling "moron"?? The Bin Laden tape is not the first time we have heard that statement from so-called "Jihad" leaders (with nary a denial heard from the kings & sheiks of our "friends" in Saudi Arabia, etc.) Hate to spoil your sleep, but you, sir, would be considered an "infidel" with the rest of us......therefore, subject to the death sentence.....except that God and the good ole USA intervene.

Anybody else having problems posting?

>"Somehow I don't see the world's 1.9 TRILLION Muslims accepting bin Laden as their spokesman."

I think I heard there's only 1.3 BILLION Muslims in the world.

But, nevertheless, let us recall this reassuring piece of conventional wisdom:

"Only 10-15% of the world's Muslim population support Radical Islam"

Yeah, right. I can see the headline now:

OSAMA DEAD: ONLY 195,000,000 LEFT TO GO!"

I tried to post this to Michael12001, and FR simply won't let me post it.

This is the reply I tried to post:

Just when did FreeRepublic become the forum of choice for the "Blame America First" crowd?
You seem to have brought them out in droves today.
Interesting. 'Michael12001'

[EggsAckley]

So, it looks as if FR won't let us address Michael12001. Hmm

My browser is IE. Maybe I spelled something wrong. It's just that I've never seen this message before.
It gave me sort of a "Bill Gates" creepy feeling. :o)

You think they're trying to take over the US and enslave us and convert us to Islam? Not very credible notion. Their gripes seem to have to do with their area of the world only.

Actualy I think WWIII is in while we are sleeping. Even India knows better than us. India is not preparing for war on terror, India is preparing for WWIII as shown below

With Israel being goaded into war, with actions leading to Paki and India being on the verge of war, with N. Korea screaming for action and with OBL still nowhere to be found, it makes you wonder if 9/11 was organized specifically to start WWIII and it makes you wonder if it was more than just OBL who organized it.

Remember, the assumtion up until now was that OBL was cornered -- how organized a plot could 9/11 have been if OBL did not even plan his escape?

[Stultis]

I'll side with India anyday. I think that they are a force for good in the world whereas China is as much a force of darkness as is Islamic fundamentalism.

In general I agree, but be careful here. India has a fundamentalist Hindu political movement that, while (mostly) lacking the worrisome expansionistic bent, otherwise takes no second place to militant Islam in intollerance and potential viciousness. India's government is secular now and will probably remain so, but if not then look out.

The world is a small place -- I've got 4 or 5K innocent neighbors killed.

[LoisHunt]

Thousands of your neighbors were killed; its serious business. Not malarkey about converting us to Islam or malarkey about hating our way of life and being jealous of our freedoms.
