I'm sure is someone offered you 7 billion dollars you'd kill someone too... when it's coming from the people in charge of everything...
What makes it different than our troops torturing them? People are people, they are not different than you or I... they believe in what they believe just as strong as you do... why can't you understand that and realize that it's the people like you on thier side who fight with people like you on our side??
they hate you cause you hate them... that's all... try not hating them and i'm sure they wouldn't hate us...

Yes. There is corruption, on both sides. But NOBODY is that that exploited or desperate enough, especially the typical middle class jihad practitioner, to join a movement like the ones we are talking about. If someone offered me 700 billion dollars, I still wouldn't kill anybody - unless they deserved to die. The people killed on 9/11 were innocent. Period. Besides, what good will the money do you if you have to kill yourself in the process? Of course, the families of the jihadists are often rewarded for the terrorist attacks. Their ??reward? should be a surgically- executed massacre of the families - by us.

You are living in a fool's paradise. If you think that everybody that "hates" me is that way because I hate them, well, you haven't been around very much. Anybody that has spent as much time as I have in an urban environment, among 125+ ethnic groups, knows that there are some people that hate you for no damn good reason. And Islam fosters such hate in susceptible people - not in all of them, but enough in their culture to allow these events to happen. And it is considered to be treason and heresy to oppose it, even if you are not one of the people chosen to be a martyr through jihad.

The Muslim extremists want to run the entire world, with a theocracy that they are in charge of as it??s head. They make no bones about it. This goes against everything that the West stands for, at this point. Al quada's ultimate goal, if their wishes are not met, is to have the world destroy itself so that Allah can start over - with "His" people in charge.

Let them take care of their own problems. I am not in favor of any kind of ??first strike? war at this point - just a major boycott, like the one that they are trying to foist upon Denmark, or any other people that they so choose.

We shouldn??t be using oil, regardless of the threat of terrorism. It??s bad for the environment, and we could live just as well, or better, with much less of it. But if you think that we should welcome Islam with open arms, and allow them to destroy our country from within, even ??peacefully?, you are just a masochist.
