You keep saying that words are important. Yours, being entirely masturbatory, aren't.

Okay, well, think what you will of my words ...

BUT ... can you point out in ANY of the articles I linked where it is that our military or current administration think for a moment that Taliban are the only "MF's" that need liquidating?

In fact, it would appear from the clear, unequivocal and absolutely unsexy snippets I posted that this is just the FIRST engagement on the drawing board where our War on Terrorism is concerned.

I don't expect you or anyone to care overmuch -- one way OR the other -- about my personal opinions. I just want you to blow some holes in the quotes I post, that's all. Rebut "THEM". =)

Why do you think you have proved something? Of course the military hasn't said that the Taliban are the only ones to be destroyed, BECAUSE THEY AREN'T!

I don't understand how you have missed this, but almost everyone is aware that there are many, many cells, many terrorist organizations, and a few terrorist-sponsoring countries. According to the Bush Doctrine, they are all fair game.

This is not a secret. President Bush stated as much in his speech before Congress. Cheney said the same thing today. WE ARE GOING AFTER THEM ALL.

That is why there is a LIST at the State Department. That is why other countries are gettting nervous. That is why we have far more troops and hardware in the south Asian area than are really needed.

We are going after them all, it is going to take quite a while, and we must stick with it if we want an improved and peaceful world for our descendents.

I SHOULD FRIGGIN HOPE NOT.

Geez, you really are clueless.

NO KIDDING, SHERLOCK.

And it BETTER be just the first.

I don't expect you or anyone to care overmuch -- one way OR the other -- about my personal opinions.

Don't.

I just want you to blow some holes in the quotes I post, that's all. Rebut "THEM". =)

Rebut them???? I AGREE with them.

You are a seriously troubled individual, and you seem to be losing touch with reality.

From day one, most of us out here not flying over the cuckoo's nest, have been quite aware of the realities of this campaign against terrorist organizations. I didn't need to be told by the President that we had started down a long and winding road, I knew...most people of any intelligence knew.

You approach this as if it's all a secret, as if the President hasn't been crystal clear since day one, that he hasn't warned us this war will take a long time, and that other enemies need to be rooted out and destroyed, Hussein, Arafat, and maybe, with luck, Castro will fall.

Seek help, you are in dire need of it.
