Since he immediately changed his statement that the voice was "sorta" terrorist rather than legitimate doesn't that negate his whole point?

I heard the interview. He immediately stated that it wasn't legitimate. Jeeez guys. Get something real. I mean Kerry ain't no great shakes, but this is really digging.

Would you really want to have a "misstatement war" between Kerry and Bush?

Thats flip flopping.

No it isn't. I can be anti BS without being pro-Kerry.

corect me if I'm wrong.

as I understand it this guy is attacking foreign military presence in his country. that is the situation, right?

how does that make him a terrorist?

he may be the enemy, he may deserve to die for killing our guys. but as long as he's fighting military forces at the source of the problem, and not attacking civilian targets outside of iraq, then he's not really a terrorist.

Why is there so much debate over the word "terrorist"? Rebel=Terrorist on many levels and when civilian contractors are targeted and not just the military then that is a form of terrorism. You guys crying about calling him a terrorist makes me feel like you sympathize with the guy. What the Iraqi people don't seem to understand is that once there is relative peace, we will set up our puppet government and leave. Then they can feel free to overthrow it either legally (future elections) or by a rebellion. Their insurgency is what is keeping us there. So screw 'em.

All I was saying is that if they want to have a rebellion after we leave then who cares. And I said that "on many level" Rebel=terrorist. I did not say that in every situation rebel=terrorist.

I stand by what I said before and their current rebellion against us is the single most biggest thing that will keep us there longer.

Kerry has no moral compass and is unable to take a stand on any issue.... he just blows in the wind it seems like.

I normally don't get into this but I had heard at work the "contractors" were all ex-special forces. Is this a true statement? If so they could be considered to be mercenaries in which they are fair game to anyone in that country.

As far as the terrorist bit. Cpt Apathy you stated "he may be the enemy, he may deserve to die for killing our guys. but as long as he's fighting military forces at the source of the problem, and . not attacking civilian targets outside of iraq , then he's not really a terrorist". One thing that gets me in this statement is what is in bold letters. A terrorist isn't necessarily one who only attacks civilians outside of their respective state or country. Timothy McVeigh was a US citizen. Yes he killed innocent civilians but did he not also attack government employees? So what exactly should he be considered as? Civilians could have simply been collateral damage in his mind and the real target was the government placed in that building. And in that mind set he would be considered what?

If a armed group is attacking forces which are in the state or country to bring peace how is it alright to kill and not be considered a bad guy. Terrorist may not be the politically correct labeling here but they are infact trying to interfere with a country trying to bring a peaceful solution to a country that once was in chaos in many ways. They are infact militants trying to disrupt the peace process. This can be debated as many would say we shouldn't have been there in the first place but we are trying to bring about a peaceful nation. With that being said if they infact want a peaceful government that looks out for all of the people in Iraq is violence against the people who are trying to bring that about just or the correct way to go? I doubt it. All they are doing for themselves in the meanwhile is labeling themselves as a rogue group which in the end will get them nothing but blood shed (our and theirs). Trying to bring Iraq into a state of revolutionary war isn't the answer to what they seek. It will only mean we will stay there longer to try to stabilize the country.
