[Keyes For President]

What the secretary would prefer not to bring up is the fact that in both Africa and Asia Muslims, many of them funded by "pro-Western" governments and oil sheiks, are engaged in a genocidal massacre of Christians. Presumably the genocide in Nigeria and the Sudan is not the partnership Secretary Powell envisions, presumably the Islamic terrorism in Indonesia and the Philippines is somewhat outside the circle. In Bosnia, where the United States supported an Islamic that wanted to impose Islamic law on a Christian majority, one of our Muslim partners was none other than Osama bin Laden.

Which do you want, tough talk OR to kill, imprison or remove from power as many as we can?

This is all we should talk
about until our leaders address the annoying little fact
that Muslims will slaughter Jews and Christians
when any one of a hundred localized Islamic leaders
merely says, "Jihad. Now. Go. Do it."

What's dishonest about this campaign to declare Islam the enemy: you claim it's time for honest talk, that the President's choice of words is dishonest. You, OTOH generalize the extremist element of Islam onto its mass practictioners worldwide (most of them nonviolent).

I also find your version is current with religious zealots in a primitive, tribal religion sense.

LITTLE WHITE LIES...

Little?

This administration is beginning to make Dr. Joeseph Goebbels proud of his students.

"Not content with repeating the palpable absurdities that are the staple of the multiculturalist left--a critic of the administration would use harsher language--Powell went on to describe plans to bring more Muslims into the United States and to excoriate those who sing "the siren song of the bigots, extremists who cloak themselves in false spirituality in an attempt to divide and to weaken us." Whether he was talking about Osama bin Laden or Pat Robertson (guilty recently of hinting that Islam may not be entirely a religion of peace), was not entirely clear upon the first reading of the AP report of Powell's address to a group of Muslim leaders. But if by "bigots and extremists," Powell means Muslims who claim religious support for terrorism against Christians, then he should have named the man who introduced this belief into Islamic thought: Muhammad himself."

Powell is a 100%, total, undeniable loser, void of all concience and reality. If this affirmative action clown is in the administration come election time '04, I will actively campaign against this administration. And it will be a grassroots campaign to end all campaigns.

"I do not support, at this point, the planned invasion of Iraq, and I agree with the many patriotic Israelis who realize that Sharon and Netanyahu, egged on by their supporters in the United States, may well bring about the total destruction of Israel."

This author, citing his comments above, if pretty long on identifying problems, which no doubt the administration DOES know about, and drastically short of any coherent solutions for same.

The US has NOT egged on Sharon and Netanyahu, so that statement is patently false. The US has demanded restraint, to allow for a systematic war against the worst terrorists, first.

If later phases justify incursions against terror supporting regimes, their time will occur. But the US and its allies have WISELY determined that taking on all of islam at one time, diabolical as it is, is NOT a wise policy.

A thoughtful student of international relations, would consider Powell, as playing a "role" in an orchestrated attempt, to get the best long term result.

BUMP!

The fallacy "Islam is about peace" ignores the fact it is the peace of an oppressed and controlled following. As opposed to the peace of Chrisitanity, which is unity in Christ's love.

I'm all for converting Muslims to Christianity.

"quest for a final solution "

Love that "final solution" talk.

[Bullish]

I like this little gem....

So long as America's political leaders continue to treat the people as children, so long as they continue to misrepresent the most basic facts of the life-and-death struggle confronting America and the West, our foreign policy will be confused and dangerous, and our control of our own borders and destiny will become more tenuous with every passing day.

He nails the problem we're facing, We will not be ready when the time comes to defend our lives from terrorism. We are given no real info. And they seem to be letting our enemies in to bushwhack us.
