AMERICA WAKE UP! (The Speech Tom Sullivan referred to on todays Rush Limbaugh Show)

OrbusMax .Com ^ | 7-18-03 | US Navy Captain Dan Ouimette

[Matchett-PI]

Captain Ouimette lists all the attacks against us when we did nothing effective to defend ourselves.

In light of the fact that America's enemies were emboldened to attack us because they were given every reason to think of us as a weak paper tiger, who will dare to say that it was OK to have permitted the decades-long efforts of the DemocRATS to emasculate our military and intelligence-gathering agencies to be successful?

The picture below is an accurate illustration of the type of thing that will eventually happen to a people who stupidly trust EMASCULATED MALES & CYNICAL OPPORTUNISTS (The quintessential description of most members of the DemocRAT party) to defend America?

They wanted to kill 50,000 of us on 9-11 - We will never forget:

I love it when someone with "gravitas" lets us have the unadulterated facts right between the eyes.

Randal Todd "Ismael " Royer was picked up in June by federal agents. He is alleged to have trained with a Kashmiri terrorist group called Lashkar-e-Taiba, which has links to al Qaeda. Earlier this year, Bassem Khafagi, who had been community affairs director for CAIR's office in Washington, D.C., had also been arrested. The news media has turned a blind eye to the alleged wrongdoers at CAIR, refusing to take an in-depth look at this group, who funds it and why. Experts on Islam know this group has strong links to the Saudi government, and that Saudi Arabia's government itself is under the strong influence of the Wahhabi sect of Islam.")

(P.S. Yes TrebleRebel I did look -- at your profile page. I have to admit that Pravda is not a source that comes to mind when it comes to the news.)

Thanks for the reminder. I wonder why there is not more media coverage on the follow-up of this ship, the team and the cargo.
