“Ideology allows a person to kill”<\/p>\n
This is as true for Islam extremists
\nas it is for any member of any military.<\/p>\n
“There was a political element to Osama’s actions”<\/p>\n
The first element being get US military out
\nof Saudi Arabia and stop supporting
\nIsrael over Palestine. (note: he did not say
\nUS should support Palestine over Israel)
\nThe second element was religions extremists,
\nwith which he used as weapons to accomplish
\nthe first.<\/p>\n
Angel Rebasa explains the Sunni Shi’ite split
\nwith each choosing which passages of the Koran
\nthey would follow…<\/p>\n
Iman \/ Jesus take your pick
\nboth have believers of Apocalyptic ends and swords
\nboth have believers of peaceful ends and plowshares<\/p>\n
American Democrats and Republicans and Independents win
\nif “The Surge” works in Iraq – violence stops –
\nthe President of Iraq says – “Go home now,
\nturn over your permanently built military camps,
\nand hands off our oil.”<\/p>\n
If we really want to dry up funding of insurgents\/terrorists,
\nby any other name the funding is the same,
\nillegal drugs and crime, then give up
\nthe failed war on drugs and treat “terrorist attack”
\nfor what it is, a crime.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
