Spanish is not that hard:p      (I take that back, the conjucations are teh pain!)  

I was gonna pick Arabic or Russian for my foreign language class in UNLV, but i decided to take Japanese instead.  Looking at their writing system, I think Japanese is the only language that uses 4 writing systems...

ひらがな  
Hiragana - 46 sylables

カタカナ  
Katakana - 46 sylables, used for foreign words and used as italics

漢字  
Kanji - Chinese characters 1,945 of them

ロマ字 (Romaji)
Roman alphabets

Freedom of religion is one of our founding principles. Should some in our nation forcibly attempt to convert our government to a theocracy with no freedom of religion it will be time to act.

Not saying its wrong.
But after checking it out. im not real sure I'd trust your source either LMAO

Doesnt lean to the left much does it?

[Gunslinger]

This is a great bit on islamic propaganda.  Again from a conservative who admits he's a conservative from the very begining and holds nothing back.

Stick your head in the sand all you want because of his political leanings but the videos alone speak for themselves.

Perhaps the concept of freedom of religion is too subtle for ya?

In an Islamic theocracy there is no freedom to practice whatever religion one may want.

I saw 10 seconds of that video and if the rest is anything like that then i wont be wasting my time with it. Even the most diehard leftist knows about those people and the threat the pose.

The question is how much attention you give them and how many you think actually follows them. You have the visible minority that chants like that and walks in the streets with their "death to america" posters.

If you get all bent out of shape and want to go after them and eliminate the "threat they pose" then you play right into the arms of those sitting in the background pulling the strings. Those are people like Bin Laden who loves it when they get their enemy in the ambushes of their back yards. That is were they defeat you.

Like the president of Iran leading his people in a chant "death to Israel"? Foolish to ignore the leader of a nation seeking nuclear weapons and dominance in the middle east.

Nope, I get it just fine. I probably should have included the rest of your post. The part about revolutions happening slowly over time. Sometimes they start with just a symbol on a lawn.... like outside a courtroom.

[Nilsen]

If one asumes that they seek to dominate the middle east then isnt that a problem that concerns the nations in the middle-east? If say saudi arabia sees them as a threat then i have a feeling that they will deal with it.

How (apart from wast enery resources) is this something that troubles the west?

If it was a deep rooted consern for civilian life in the region then again i wonder why the same effort is not spent in other areas were more people are at real risk daily.

In over 200 years we have become less Christian rather than more in the US. I think you'll find the yoke of Christianity you've endured to be far less oppressive than when Muslims becomre a predominant religion in this country. I'll remind ya in 20 years.

Aside from the obvious fact of the much needed oil in the Middle East? How about the US ally Israel? When a burgeoning nuclear power threatens annihilation of an ally we take it seriously. Maybe you noticed that the US maintains a military presence in europe to this day?

[Nilsen]

Imagine how those billions upon billions of dollars spent in Iraq could have been used treating problems in africa, problems at home, investing in Mexico (to prevent all those illegals that are a problem) and financially supporting those that wants to be democratised in the middle east and elsewere.

Would that not have made the US, the western world and the poor/sick alot safer than the billions that are just wasted in Iraq.

As an added bonus you would not have the rapid recruitment of potential terrorists, criminals and corruption that starting a war in Iraq have brought.

[lukster]

We continually spend billions at home and in Africa. Solves no problems.

Impossible to say what would have happened had we left Saddam in power.
