I'm just in a bad mood, having had to come to work even though I'm ill, and I'm not in the mood for John Fucking Reid or NewsFucking24. To be quite frank I'd probably shout at a kitten for mewing too loudly right now. |

It's all probably Bush's, and Blair's doing. When will people finally realize that terrorism doesn't exist? Indeed. _____________________

Hum Today is August 10.... little less than 3 months from the elections.... Perfect timing One wonders if this happened months ago and they are just now releasing the details to influence the elections in the US (After all, we did the same to help ole Tony during his difficult election and he won) Or did this ever happen at all? If this had happened, say December, January or February, or in an Off Election year, I would be able to believe it a bit more than now. because its happening just about the right time to influence elections in the United States, I find this whole plot very hard to believe. The World Wonders Tell me that you were trying to be funny. _____________________

So, Magnum and other conspiracy theorists:
What would it take to convince you that a threat from Islamic extremists exists whenever there's an election coming soon? Mid-air explosions? Most people would rather not get to that point. Is it even possible to convince you people that Islamic terrorism is real? How can you be so closed-minded? _____________________

But even that would suck, because who would want to listen to a whining wussy toaster? Is he gold plated? If that's the case he should just be melted down into gold ingots. Help the economy some, and stop being so damn useless you stupid bucket of bolts! R2 is 1,000 times more useful than your tin man ass, and he's shaped like a salt and pepper shaker FFS! |

These are the people who when it gets to that point go back and claim it should have been prevented. Every small inconvience in their life is the Presidents fault. |

The broad concept of a unified Islamo-Fascist Terroism™ as defined by our friends Bush and Blair does not exist. Was a real terror threat busted up? Of course it was. Is it being ginned up for maximum panic before an election? Of course it is. _____________________

Terroists do exist. The broad concept of a unified Islamo-Fascist Terroism™ as defined by our friends Bush and Blair does not exist. Define "unified". If a gang of hoodlums in one neighborhood gets money from hoodlums in another neighborhood so they can rob banks, is that unified? Or just a loose web of cells designed to make it harder to bring the whole web down? Is it being ginned up for maximum panic before an election? Of course it is. Which is what politicians do, but it doesn't have anything to do with whether the threat is real. All of the following have been linked to the loose network known as al Qaida. They are only the most publicized. A more complete list is here which includes terrorist incidents going back to the 11th century, including the IRA, Chechnyan separatists, Indian muslims, and other groups. The difference today is that the attacks are deadlier and more frequent, and almost every single one was launched by Islamic extremists. Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, Nairobi, Aug 7, 1995 - 225 dead Yemen, Oct 12, 2000 - USS Cole, 17 dead New York, Sept. 11, 2001 - 2,986 dead Bali, Oct 12, 2002 - 202 dead Riyadh, May 12, 2003 - 26 dead Manila, 27 Feb 2004 - over 116 dead Madrid, 11 March 2004 - 191 dead London, 7 July 2005 - 56 dead, scores injured Bombay, 12 July 2006 - 200 dead. _____________________

I hate coy people. You know damned well what it is --your talking heads have been filling you with this myth since 9-11. No, I don't know how it exists in your mind. I know about Islamic terrorism. What form of terrorism do you believe actually exists? Are you actually denying that Islamic terrorists exist? Ohhhhh, this is going back to that "Bin Laden is actually dead and the tapes are all fake now" theory, isn't it? And I'd still like to hear Magnum, or anyone else who is "suspicious" of news like this, answer my original question. What would it take to change your mind? It's a serious question. _____________________
