See this is what I don't get. whys it either "bomb em all to hell" or "do nothing"
we didn't do nothing about the IRA, on the corntrary we did a hell of a lot more than simply nuking belfast which seems to be your cover all
solution.
"These Islamic terrorists are not like the IRA."
aren't they? then what are they like, please explain, see I was of the opinion that the IRA were a quasi religious militant organisation, a small
faction of which used violent indescriminent acts of terror in order to try and force their beliefs and ideals on a country that didn't want to
subscribe to their doctrine whilst terrorist organisations such as Al Quaeda were quasi religious militant organisations, a small faction of which
used violent indescriminent acts of terror in order to try and force their beliefs and ideals on a country that didn't want to subscribe to their
doctrine.....oh hang on wait a sec.
y'see Nyeff this is one of the reasons your having a problem with this whole discussion.
you don't really know what a terrorist is.
you've accepted the demonising of certain groups by your press and governmental propaganda to the point where you no longer really consider these
people as human. you just see them as evil monsters, and thats why you can't see any way through this except their destruction.
the fact is that the people who attacked the WTC are, fundimentaly no different from the IRA members who blew up the pub in london, or the farmers who
got off their arses and took to the hills to liberate America from their colonial oppressors.
they are all simply freedom fighters fighting for a cause they believe in, one they are ready to kill or be killed for.
If you forget that, Then yo will never ever win this war because you will be fighting myths, ghosts, in many ways you will be fighting against
ideologys, idiologys that you are actually supposed to be fighting this war to protect.
don't you see the hopeless dichotemy this places the war under?
