Terrorists. Al Qaida. Still searching for them. But some Iraqis are trying to make a whole different story out of it.

Allthough I don't like the way Moore uses the PR machinery I admit that he is very succesfull in doing it and I give him credit for getting you guys to vote...
I see it this way... I don't vote, I don't have a right to complain about my political leaders...

Who are terrorists?? That is the big problem. I remember Bush saying: We are going to war against terrorism, you're either with us or against us. So when the french didn't support the war were they the terrorists???

There has been terrorism the last 30 years (remember lockerbie), then we didn't go to war against libia, or al the other terrorist threads. The fact alone that America is now on te second the worst terrorisme warning right before elections says enough. The newspapers in Holland report on this and publicly and openly doubt if there is such a thread.
Bush is trying to stay in the seat by putting fear in the heads of the people.

When he said with or against us, I guess he meant going to war. And just when you are with us you have a saying in it...
I don't think he meant, who is against us is a terrorist...
In the past there was not enough action taken against terrorists, that's why they had the time to built their infrastructure...
And Lockerbie... That was the same group who put a bomb in the German night club "La Belle"... And President Reagan did something... Allthough it was just a warning... Remember the attack on Tripolis ???
We had those problems in the past, as we have them today. But today they are stronger, so that's why we need to react harder...

IMHO

Cool, I think I've seen more of those... Will check when I'm home, maybe I can add some to this collection.
Speaking about the President, wasn't that a funny speach ?
I think President Bush is a great entertainer...
