So then what do you propose we do? Just sit back and relax? Kick our feet up and say "well, that's in the past. Let's forget and move on. If we don't bother anyone, no one will bother us"? I'm not dwelling on the past, but I am using 9/11 as the motivation to rid the world of all the maniacs.
No, we step up and realize WHY we're hated and loathed. Then we AVOID confrontation. It takes a bigger person to settle without fighting.

Bush has won alot of respect for his concept of a new world order, where the options are pretty much accept democracy or face the consequences.
Wow ... I love that. New World Order ... Hello Police State! You can't force your beliefs and ways of life on someone else. It's morally, ethically, and spiritually wrong, and it will bite you in the ass in the end.

He's the first President I can remember who stepped to the plate to address the entire mid-east situation. Clinton tried, but these animals don't abide by handshakes and treaties.
Hmmmm these "animals" probably didn't agree and will never agree. This has been going on, as you say, since Biblical times. It's never going to end and to think it will is sheer stupidity. Who's more of an animal though? The groups in conflict, or the 3rd party that comes in and tries to settle their dispute without being in their shoes? No wonder everyone hates the USA, we can't keep our nose out of everyone elses affairs.

We crumbled a regime they thought would give us serious problems in one month. We have eliminated that regime's lifeblood, that being Hussein's sons, and now that has happened, Iran, while not very public about it, is very worried.
Wow ... they REALLY had weapons, man. Believe me, I feel so much safer now that we took them out.
*cough*bs*cough*
Ok, back to REALITY. If they had WMD, why didnt they use them when we attacked? I guess instead of defending themselves and their native country with weapons that could do the job, they would much rather die. Yea, that sure makes sense to me. But hey, look on the bright side, attacking a 2nd world nation without any means to defend themselves is great for the polls! Hurray for the voters!

As well they should be. See, this is the time we go all out. They started this freaking mess, and by God we're gonna finish it. We've got the power, the people, and the guns to do it. As far as I'm concerned, the fighting that has gone on since biblical times is gonna come to an end one way or another. And if 9/11 was the catalyst, so be it. I know I sound like some good 'ole boy, but that's how I feel it has to be.
Well that settles it! GOD has given America his permisson and blessing to **** the rest of the world up. I seriously cannot believe the crap you come up with.
