I just heard Donald Rumsfeld on the radio answering reporters' questions, and one reporter asked if the operation in the middle east would really be named "Infinite Justice."
When Rumsfeld replied that he had 'heard' the name, but that it might not be the actual name of the action, the reporter replied that he had spoken to Muslim clerics, and that "infinite justice" was offensive because "only Allah can provide infinite justice."
To which Rumsfeld replied that we would not name it anything that might be offensive!
Thoughts?
Also, I am very offended that every day continually some of my liberty to act, to wear what I want, to say what I want, to pray when and where I want is denied because it offends someone.
It is time for those who are so offended to quit trying to take away my personal freedom to live, think, pray, and talk in this country. They are offensive to me and from now on I will specifically state that fact.
This politically correct nonsense has been done - time to move on and get over it.
No, but then not all of us are suffering from Swiss cheese-sized holes in our common sense as a result from contracting "Mad Liberal" Disease.
Baloney. If they are not able to deal with the real world, maybe they should stay in their sand dunes and stay out of other countries.
ROTFL!
Each branch could have it's own name. The Air Force could be "You Like Planes?"
Some local peaceniks are suggesting that only "ground troops" be
used against the terrorist camps, to keep the harm to the innocent
down.
Apparently they haven't heard or understood what "collateral damage"
is in war lingo.
To put our people in harms way, as we did in 'Nam, would be a disgrace
beyond disgrace. Our job is to eradicate terrorists and terrorist's
training camps. Those that chose to support them are as much this World's
enemy as the terrorists themselves.
As GW put it: "Either you're with us, or against us".
intel...monitor their broadcasts...Know your enemy...that sort of thing.
That would be the build-up. The operation would be "Operation Sea of Glass."
But I don't see our using nukes . . . . unless they unleash another attack on us employing weapons of mass destruction. Then I believe we must.
In earlier crusades, this was the first thing the barbarians, heretics and infidels saw when we retaliated.
Nowadays, thisis the last thing many of them will see before they finally meet their "Allah."
Message to terrorists and others who hate America: You can run, but, you can't hide from us now!
