yes, the terrorists have been "winning the hearts and minds" of the local population in iraq by killing them with car bombs, :rofl :rofl :rofl

sorry, but in spite of what the democrats and CNN say Al Qeada is losing.

Running around, mindlessly regurgitating anything and everything just to get a rise isn't the same as presenting an intelligible argument. In such cases, calling somebody a fool is not an ad hominem, but rather, an accurate description.

Obviously the U.S. and the terrorists are using two different methods to fight the war.  The U.S. is trying to rebuild infrastructure while the terrorists are trying to break it down.

But then again, maybe the methods arent so different.  Smash infrastructure until the population surrenders, then build it up in a fashion that you like.

I just have to jump in here and personally thank our saviour George Bush. Because of him today you can walk the streets of Baghdad and feel the gentle brush of flowers that the Iraqi people are showering American's with. Today the middle east is a more stable region because of him. I thank him also for capturing the mastermind behind the 9/11 attacks and making the world a safer place for all of us.





















I just threw up in my mouth a little.

You mean it was safe for you to walk in Baghdad before the war?  Really?
They only started kidnapping/killing Americans after the war started?

As far as making the rest of the world safer I couldn't care less. As long as we are safer here that's all that matters to me.

Let the rest of the world deal with the "Islam is Peace" crowd they have.

Funked, you went way way left .  I don't think you are far from listing "warcrimes committed by Israel" and presenting engineering theories that prove the WTC collapse couldn't have been caused by aircraft, and the pentagon attacked itself, etc...  

what has that school done to you?

As a side note, I think that's it's amazing with what predictability a person's geographic origin dictates his/her beliefs, at least on these boards. Instead of posting an opinion, it almost suffices to say: 'I'm from ________', and let the readers connect the dots. Works almost every time, and the bigger the issue, the more predictable the answer.

.....Carry on, gentlemen.
