One could do a lot more than argue it.  It's an undeniable fact.  Al Qaeda bombed the WTC and the embassies in Kenya and Tanzania.  Clinton responded with cruise missile attacks in Sudan and Afghanistan.  And so it began.

I think it all started when Coca-Cola changed thier formula.  "New Coke" sent the entire world spiraling into paranoia.

One of two possible points here. Either you are just plain wrong, or you are saying that the war on terror should be limited to Al Queda. Which would you rather be PWNED for?

The war on terror should be limited to terrorist groups from the Middle East, because they are clearly the only terrorists in the world.

Personally, I think it was the demise of muscle cars in the late '60's that caused all the problems.

When folks saw THIS, they KNEW we meant business.



Then we put out this nancy-boy .... thing...  no wonder people hate us.

1.  I'm not wrong.
2.  The war on terror should be limited to any terrorist groups who attack America or her citizens.  Al Qaeda is obviously #1 on the list.

Good point Toad, but I still think the world blames us for the Coke formula change.  I tend to think it was an act of terrorism.

We can only blame ourselves for the 'Nancy' car 70's, 80's, and 90's.

It's a Global War on Terror.

Not a War on Terrorists Who Only Attack America.

Well, it's supposed to be a Global War on Terror.

I think it started in the early 70s. Carter, Reagan, Bush Sr, etc... they all had their world and terrorism issues to deal with.

#2 then... Iraq was a stupid move that did nothing to further our cause against "Terrorist groups who attacked America".

#1. There were serious attacks well before the 1993 WTC attack. Panam Flight 103? The Truck bombing in Libya? etc. etc. Luckily Reagan attacked Grenada or we would have really gotten it!

Don't forget Ronald Reagan.

Ah, but we gave them the "old" Coke back in "Classic" form.

I ask you, where are the Boss 429's of yesteryear? And puh-leez... don't give me any of that slug-ugly "Viper" stuff. I'm talking a totally bad lookin' ride with huge amounts of horsepower... that didn't take a millionaire's salary to buy just for the fun of it.
