1 Maybe what people need to start doing is listen to what the Arab countries are telling their own people; then they wouldn't be shocked at all. What they say at their religious services, what they teach the children in classrooms, the programs they have on t.v. The only peace that most of them are looking for is the peace or being the ultimate world rulers.

2 Rumsfeld? ..Is our current situation such that 'the harder we work, the behinder we get? One could ask the exact same question "from the other side". Answer :: I'd rather be me than you. Paradox :: Atleast 1 side is lying to themself.

3 Exactly Rachel. I missed the point somewhere in there Jon. What?

4 I wonder what the result of the same poll conducted on Western university campuses would show.

5 Heheh. Dr RS ~ The paradox is the harder the terrorists work, the worse it will get for them ~ for sure. As per the elite force etc.. imo of course. & i'd much rather be a Westerner too, but that stands to reason. Well, judging by the amount of Westerners busting their balls to emigrate to the Middle East that is.

6 Are they ALL radical islamists?? Strange result considering the people that have been beheaded so far are there to help them. There is so much good going on in this country that is being sent to that country to help them out. I thought the clerics believed that the "warrier" and other crap had to come out of the Kuran and teach it more conservatively? Up in Mosul, the dean of the Mosul University was a woman and she was beheaded because they say she was helping the "american forces." Another woman who was an English teacher and a translator for the troops in that are worked for ten months. She told the troops she prayed every day for Bush to invade Iraq and that if he didn't, she was somehow going to the White House to beg him to do just that. After ten months, she did not show up anymore because her sister was beheaded by the MEN IN BLACK because she was helping the "american forces." Allawi said the decision to invade was not an easy decision to make but it was the right one and then he thanked everyone of us for our sacrifices. How can you say NO to a guy who says he needs our help and thanks us for that help? Kerry believes all the money we used in this war could have been used here in the US for other things - what could be more important in this day and age than the war on terrorism??? He also goes around saying I, I, I, I, I, but no buts, not even answers on what he would do differently, why he would do it differently (still wait for the UN?) and how. The man only shows up to pick up his checks every two weeks but in 19 years as a Senator, when does he debate any subject and when, if at all, does he vote? Can you imagine him running the country the same way? NADA. This man doesn't know what it's like to carry the burdens of the world and this country on his shoulders and I hope to God he never will. ~C ~C

7 Rusty: Where does the article say that? All I could find is a statement that around two-thirds of Jordanians (70%) and Morrocans (66%) support suicide bombing of Westerners. Where's the statement about 93%?

8 Have you noticed that there aren't any Russian terrorists threatening the West ? Nor Spanish etc... that is because we respect them, we don't invade them when we want to make sure they are living like us. It is no wonder the population hate the West, they don't need preachers telling them what terrible people we are, they just need to look at the news and see the thousands of people that are being killed by the war to "free" them. You can't kill everyone that hates the West, it would be better to not "help" them and not have any enemies, noone would have a reason to do these acts.

9 here is one thing i have to say regarding the presidential issues and the wat in iraq i certainly and do not beleive that it true because right now the attacks happening is done by terrorist's not the iraqi people they glad that saddam is gone and they are glad the americans came to liberate them and right now the beheadings was grueling on videos, yes its horrifying no one should approve of it but i still think there is something missing someone needs to go and negotiate with the militants see what they want if its money or what then can try to accomplish something by meeting thier demands and get it over with right now kenneth bigley is held in chains and orange jumpsuit its time to do something to free him his life is more important to families and friends has back home in liverpool england but our troops need to find him and someone needs to tell the troops to move in and fan out and try to locate it and go after these maniacs and take them into custody for murders they commited so why cant anyone do anything right come on i am american i know what needs to be done i can see it clearly most dont see it clear enough i hope the troops so something now i mean nowwwww to help this poor man and make tony blair wake up with a alarm to say so something
