The people who scream about the United States backing dictators in the world are the same people who scream when the US removes dictators.

The only thing that would have prevented terrorism from cropping up in the Middle East would have been Western occupation from the Middle Ages on. Keeping our hands off of the Islamic theocracies has been the problem. It's called appeasement. Direct action must be taken sooner or later. We are taking that action now. This is still sooner than "Old Europe" would like, but too late for some of us who have been wincing every time an Islamothug hijacks a plane, kills a hostage, or blows up a building.

We have a self-declared. The only thing for us to do is to defeat them. Our problem has been a lack of action in the past. That is now being corrected.

We support Evil when it suits us don't we? In Kosovo, in Uzbekistan (he boils people alive), and in Pakistan (Only God knows what he or "we" do in that country whose majority hates us.) So spare me the Sadaam was "bad" crap and the "mass grave crap" as well. We support leaders who are just as brutal right now than Sadaam ever was and have no problem with it. Heck- We gave Sadaam the green light after GWI to kill all those Shia after we encouraged them to uprise. That never stopped GW's Son from using those same bodies as an excuse!

If you think the Shia Muslems don't know that about America and how we used them then you are mistaken!
