If it is terrorism, we can stop it completely by changing our foreign policy. The jihad on America has nothing whatever to do with our foreign policy, but everything to do with moslems' desire to convert/submit us to islam.

The fact of the matter is, that America did not experience acts of terrorism from the middle east, until we started medling in their internal affairs. Thus, my grand parents had no fear of arab terrorism. Look at the facts, America did not always live in fear of arab terrorism. It is a recent development. The arabs themselves will tell you this, and why they are doing what they are doing. George Washington was still right.

First of all, I no longer believe anything the moslems tell us, because their motives are suspect.

And the reason our grandparents didn't have to worry about this is because moslems were not at that point focusing on the colonization of America. They only started in on us after their US population had begun to increase. They're not able to work effectively until they've reached a certain percentage.

In 1970 the US moslem population was 100,000 approximately. Today it is conservatively 3 million. Wait another 10 years if you think we have trouble today.

So I have to ask: Do you sir/madam, sympathize or agree with the terrorism we are experiencing in this country and against our national interests and those performing these acts? I don't give a hoot whether you profess to "understand" it. I want to know if YOU AGREE with it.

We have been fighting terrorism, sabotage, treason, since we became a nation. It is only because of the liberal PC crowd that we started getting terrorized. This is because we un-empowerd ourselves.

"The fact of the matter is, that America did not experience acts of terrorism from the middle east, until we started medling in their internal affairs"

But unfortunately the fact of the matter is they have the oil, so we have no choice but to do business with them. And we absolutely cannot let them hold us hostage because of our need for oil.

So unless we want to develop our own sources of oil, which liberals are adamantly opposed to, we have no choice but to be involved with them. However it we were to do that we could leave them completely alone and let them slide back into the stone age and implode on themselves.

You didnt fear it as you were kept in the dark..was there before and "has happened" to our soldiers(those are Americans too ya know)..just we chose to say was on someone elses land in some way off distant place..It has been there ! (Clinton)governments had a "chicken in every pot" and a new car in your garage, kissed your baby and a 401k..all narrowed your vision.Now you are shocked? Children are beaten and murdered in their homes by their parents..molested by family friends and strangers..gang bangers did drive byes in every city..murderers and rapists roamed the streets? But when it is a Foreign terrorist you have fear?...Was always fear felt by many out there, but they continued with their lives..this is just another kind of fear..with the same senario of.."being in the wrong place at the wrong time" The world didnt turn into a Sink Hole overnight. Terrorism is terrorism..murder is murder..death is death..felt by all human beings around the world not just America and that is the part of Life that sucks! Just my opinion.

I guess a lot may depend on where one's grandparents lived. My grandparents, who lived in Czechoslovakia under, in turn, the boot of the Nazis and the Russians, had a profound distrust of muslims. In that part of the world, folk music is very illustrative. There are many folk songs that reflect the cruelty of the muslims and the hardships imposed by the Ottoman Empire. If you look past the relatively recent history of America and consider the history of Europe, I think you'll find plenty of reasons for concern regarding muslim intentions. If you don't like European history, take a look at forced conversions in Sudan. All these large and small nations couldn't possibly have brought this upon themselves through meddling.
