What we're up against
Take a few minutes and read this interview from 1998 with the mastermind of this terror. Well worth your time.

RE: What we're up against
Yeah, right, quote an article from "The Nation." Why not just get an old speech from Chairman Mao?

"The Nation" should really be called "The Hammer and Sickle." You don't really read that tripe, do you kleetn?

You can read and learn or you can continue to act and speak in ignorance.

Useful article. Forrests comments were educational too.

Geez, Forrest, I didn't notice any editorializing in the article, I saw an interview with the man suspected of sponsoring this act of terror. I thought I'd pass it along so people might get a look at this guy and his possible motives. Whatever.

Afraid to read the Nation?
WTF?
Is it not simpe enough?
That was an interesting article at least.

Sorry, I can't look at Bin Laden as a sympathetic figure as the story portrays. Isreal has been invaded by the Palestinians ever since it's inception. I now understand why they would kill all of the people they have killed. Before Tuesday, i questioned our alliance w/Isreal and Mid-East policy. Now, I am sure.

As Americans, we have the luxery of being able to live with one another regardless of race creed or color in a non-violent way (for the most part) Time does heal many wounds here. In the middle east, this is not so, these people will fight each other to the death, forever. We must take out their leaders, and destroy their armies, immediately.

BB -

Have you considered counseling for post-traumatic stress syndrome?

I'm serious. I'm worried about you. You?re not being rational.

I?m not trying to pick on you, just help you.

No, but I have considered shelling out some bucks for a massage. Do you think that'll help?

I saw no sympathy for Bin Laden in the article. It was interesting, I believed it and I still think he should die soon.

Be careful, if you read too much you may not be able to hate so easily.

Palestinians "invading" Israel? WTF? It's name used to be PALESTINE!

What's next, Ojibwa and Potawatomi "invading" Michigan and Wisconsin?
