If its a choice between sitting on the same side of the fence as George W, and sitting on the other side with the terrorists, I would have no choice but to sit on the fence. Both sides of the fence are distasteful. I am never one to blame the people of a country for the policy of ones government, but I am constantly astounded that Americans still think you can defeat terror by engaging in state sponsored terror, or supporting implicitly state sponsored terror (ie. Israel). There is outcry at a terrorist attack on an Expat compound in Saudi (and rightly so), but where is the outcry from those same people when a raid on a Palestinian town, "accidentally" kills women and children, while seeking out "terrorists". Oh sorry that is considered to be "collateral damage".

The Guaridian,Friday May 21 2004,page 17:

War on terror-Lies about crimes

"....when Iraqis are blown apart in Baghdad by a car bomb or Israelis in Haifa by a suicide bomber these are instantly and correctly labelled as terrorist attacks.However when American helicopters or Israeli tanks cause death to innocent civillians on a similar case,there is always an alternative version on offer."


"...at least in this week's pronouncement by Rabbi Dov Lior,head of the council of rabbis in the occupied territories.This spiritual leader,quoted in Ha'aretz,has declared that Israeli lives are more precious than Palestinian ones.The Jewish faith ,he says allows killin 'allegedly innocent civilians ' in battle."


Anyone can check it.I am living in an East European country where to say the same ,I can get the cause of "anti-semitism" as our great Prime Minister (KGB agent 20 years ago) signed the U.S. supporting letter together with 7 other government ,before the Iraqi war.

And yes,I know you get bored,but I have got an offer from Qatar Airways,but I am afraid to accept it as I don't know if these attacks might be happen there in the future.I have to resign from my job to go to QR and I am very desperate about the coming years in the Gulf Area.

The key factor to the so called terrorism is the palestinian conflict for more than 50 years.As all of You,I also dont want to be a victim of unjustified occupation that is NOT my interest.The small nations (including mine) has experience about the given word of the "Free World".

No last time I checked I was not "blinds" or any other variety of window covering.

Yes, there was a full and comprehensive investigation when the unarmed protester dressed in a fleurescent orange vest to identify him as such, was shot by an Israeli army sniper and killed in the West Bank. The Israeli armed forces did an internal investigation and found that the protestor was seen to be armed and a threat, when all eye witnesses said he was in fact running out unarmed to try and save a child from the gun fire.

Terrorism is never right, whether the orders are signed by Osama Bin Laden, George W Bush, or Ariel Sharon.

Yes I know about the German in the drive by shooting week last Saturday as well the the raid that resulted in the death of three people in Northern Riyadh. It is because of these incidents that I find myself unable to walk in the streets there.

You said that they did not ask for passports but in Al Khobar they asked if you were arab and muslim. This was confirmed by checking the Iqamas of each person and making them recite a surah from the Qur'an. That is very selective.

Wonder if GWB or TB will remember these names in the next move in the war on Terror

Lawrence Gregory
Pradeep Kumar
Jain Jose
Clephen Carlos
Andhra Pradesh
Joe Fernandez
Suresh Kumar
Tola Ram all Indian

Chandana Pradeep Anthony Sri Lankan

Magnuss Johanssson Swede

Felician Dizon
Joel Guiray
Mariano Cabasag all Filipino

Michael Hamilton British

or the 10 year old Egyptian boy along with an Italian, South African an American another Sri Lankan plus the 3 Saudis.

Sure these two guys will stand up in their respective seat of government and send out sympathy to the families of the above then get right back to business

Such crocodile tears but the above deaths can all ways be attributed to that eloquent phase Collateral Damage.

Quite right. OBL and his cronies started this war on 9/11.

If war is what they want, war is what they are getting. Keep it up GW and TB.

My belief is that we are going about this wrong. Look back at the japs in WWII, the suicide Kamakazi. Look what stopped them! these people are not afraid to die, they look foreward to it! Things that they treasure mut be threatened. We could start with all the holy sites. The first to go would be the large mosque in Jerusalem, then maybe the Kaaba in Mecca, then one by one until certain criminals were turned in, and all this BS stopped, systematic elimination of all holy sites. Not one soul need die.

Well this isn't a holy war, although the idiots think so. Why eliminate all the holy sites? You think non terrorists are gonna let you just take away their place to pray... that would start a holy war for sure. People have every right to pray to their God and build whatever they want. Its not the building that is causing this... its the minds of a few individuals who have lost some screws over the years. Many of them taught to hate from birth.... If anything, we should sterolize those doing so, preventing them from infesting the world with more idiots.

Yeah what a great idea!Go there and destroy the whole islam culture!

You are very soft my friend.Drop the nukes down ,destroy all the muslim cities one by one!

Death to all who dont want to live according to the standards of the "Free World"!



You should be an adviser for GWB as well as Sharon ,the job is open for You or even the next President in the US.

Nice,new world!Everything started,they hit back.

It is not a surprise,if any other country comes to my land,destroying my house,killing my family,yes it would be not so hard to teach me to hate from heart and the purpose of my remaining live is to take as manyas possible with me.

Apart from your opinion(hope if you are pilot ,there is some mental test)no excuse for this massacre ,for burning the house of the french family as well as that is happening in Israel for 40 years.
"Weighting on double way" should be cancel in our mind.
Why I am not surprised that no one opened a forum about the last week israeli operations in the "occupied territories"?

Could start with a few world leaders first. If you start at the top it is easy for the water to flow down rather than up

ijp,

Sorry, but you're a Big Zero in my books for saying something so arrogant and naive.

Not much more that I can say about your position. Have a great day cowboy.

Not one person need die using my method! None! I must have struck a nerve! Maybe with the threat that I suggested, people will be encouraged to turn over these savage militants, and make others think twice before commiting these outragous acts. If they don't want the "holy" sights destroyed, simple, do not commit acts of terrior. How much easier can it be.
All these middle eastern arguements, someone always brings up Isreal. People must face the fact that 56 years ago the land was taken and it is gone forever. Tell me, please, of any land on this planet that wasn't taken from someone else. The policy that I suggested is not new it was used with success by the Romans, and many others since. Incidently, do you know what county contributes more money than anyone else to palestine?
It is costing a fortune, in money and human life to protect the innocent from these people. There is a profile and we should use it. When has an American housewife or English businessman or a German stockbroker ever hijacked an airplane. Your arguement that the innocent should not pay is understood, so why are we in the west having to pay for the barbarian conduct of the middle east. Another solution might be to keep anyone of middle eastern origin off of airplanes, and out of the skys, end of problem! And certainly out of civilized nations. As for the oil, use the multi national force to secure the oilfields for the benefit of industrial nations.
I bet this message gets some attention.

So what country produced Timothy McVeigh?

I seem to remember a couple of guys riding around with a sniper rifle shooting people from the boot of their car recently. Where was that? Washington?

There were plenty of Germans involved in an organisation called the 'stasi'. Fairly terrorfying.

the barbarian conduct of the middle east
I assume you are talking about Israel, here?

I suspect, however, that you really aren't a moron, just a troll.
