Here are the words of one of those terrorist attack addicts lamenting over the fact that our country is falling apart without a recent fix. After all, it's so much easier to slaughter people and trash countries when you're mad.
"Remember the community of outrage and national resolve? America had not been so united since the first Day of Infamy - 12/7/41.
We knew who the enemy was then.
We knew who the enemy was shortly after 9/11.
Because we have mislaid 9/11, we have endless sideshow squabbles about whether the surge is working, if we are "safer" now, whether the FBI should listen in on foreign phone calls, whether cops should detain odd-acting "flying imams," whether those plotting alleged attacks on Fort Dix or Kennedy airport are serious threats or amateur bumblers. We bicker over the trees while the forest is ablaze.
America's fabric is pulling apart like a cheap sweater.
What would sew us back together?
Another 9/11 attack.
The Golden Gate Bridge. Mount Rushmore. Chicago's Wrigley Field. The Philadelphia subway system. The U.S. is a target-rich environment for al Qaeda.
Is there any doubt they are planning to hit us again?
If it is to be, then let it be. It will take another attack on the homeland to quell the chattering of chipmunks and to restore America's righteous rage and singular purpose to prevail.
The unity brought by such an attack sadly won't last forever.

For a terror free place go to:

Where the only weapons are potato guns.
For a safer orchestration go to:

Where politicians are forbidden.
You are 100% correct!
And, Ron Jenkins, stop spamming!
BS, this person should be shipped over to the fight and left there.
China and Canada are Trading partners. China and Mexico are Trading Partners, China and the USA are trading partners.
Iraq and Iran are NOT trading partners with the USA, but China and Iran are trading partners. China and Japan are trading partners.
China's place on the pyramid of world economies is rising fast. The USA is sinking.
The playing field is leveling itself. The two most populous nations on earth are China and India. Take a look at the Per Capita GNP or GDP of both countries, and compare it with the same figure in the USA. Project the Total GNP of China if the Per Capita GNP were equal to the USA's.
This is an issue of individual human prosperity. It will resolve with EQUITY and JUSTICE, or it will resolve with MASS KILLINGS.
What's that you say? Where is Bin Laden? We know where he is and he is there instead of here. He is more use to us in the mountains on the margins that he would be behind razorwire on some tropical island.
Now, about Iran....
What worries me (a vietnam veteran) is that the USA is rushing into the position of the newest poverty nation on planet earth. The 8 million jobs created over the last six years pay starvation wages. The increase in the minimum hourly wage from $5.15 per hour to $5.85 per hour was rediculous.
Most people that earn the minimum hourly wage work very hard to get about twenty hours a week on the books or a pay check of approx. $117.00 a week. Those individuals are prime targets for recruitment by the Al Quaida types of this world.
We allowed our steel industry to deteriorate to the point that we will buy steel beams from communist China that will not support the traffic crossing the bridges of our land (produced with two much tin content).
Mortgages are at an all time high when it comes to defaults and foreclosures on homes. When peoples jobs are taken from them by the corporations of this country they can no longer pay the mortgage. This has been taking place for many years.
I am old enough to remember the sweat shops that existed for way too many years in the USA. I see us rapidly returning to those sweat shops as Unions are destroyed and the workers have no representation. For many many years workers fought to obtain a piece of the pie and most have lost any opportunity to have any kind of future.
Those individuals that were born with silver spoons in their mouths have developed so deep a sense of greed that they see those born into poverty as useless.
Because of these and many other circumstances, I think the latter will be the outcome.
It's true that many of our jobs have been shipped overseas and that a lot of our citizens are suffering as a result. There are some things we can do to remove some of the incentives for corporations to move offshore, but if we get draconian about it we will just accelerate the process. Our economy has shifted away from those sweat shops; we have little use for the uneducated and unskilled except in low-wage service jobs that don't compete with low wage labor elsewhere. While too many of our young people are entertaining themselves to death, neglecting their studies, and have never been told about the work ethic there are millions of Indians, Chinese and others who are working hard, studying hard, and are determined to make good whatever it takes. If we're on a slippery downward slope, we have only ourselves to blame.

It did however force me to add a rothschild section on my article
http://www.gather.com/viewArticle.jsp?articleId=281474977065384
Believe me, folks, I have from the get-go taken a very dim view of the Iraq adventure and its shifting rationales as one after another thesis falls apart. I've seen the world and how it operates, and I'm under no illusions about the Neocons, Bush, Cheney and the rest of that unholy crew. At least we're rid of Rove.
As I recall, this administration stuck Bolton in the UN for the express purpose of undercutting it's powers.
As far as I know, the most recent call to be rid of the UN (and the ACLU) has been that from the far right religious fundamentalists (mostly Evangelicals) who have been swayed by the fears of a one world government, the mark of the beast and all of that end times stuff leading up to the 'second coming'.
I believe there are many prophetic truths coming to pass now, but it would be far more accurate to look at it all metaphorically rather than literally.

A word of caution to the folks, we do make our own realities to a great degree and co-create it with other like thinkers. There are always at least two VALID sides to every story , and we can find information to either write or read just that in the direction that best suits our desires.
This is a seldom realized 'fact' that people overlook in seeking the 'facts' that best support their own ideas and concepts. The writers of those articles I read have done just that and they have a wide audience that does in effect the same thing.
When one only follows one view, they have in that sense already made up their minds in rejecting the 'other' view ... often the greatest truth lies somewhere in-between the two versions ... one will never know for sure unless they look completely at all there is on the subject.
Blessings and good luck - we really need it - S.

Think about that for a minute. A fundmentalist would be looking FORWARD to the second coming not fearing it. Once HE returns there will be 1000 years of Theocracy where God rules. The lion lays down with the lanb and alll of that pece stuff.
From reading alll these posts I asume that the UN is either useless and a paper tiger or it is the vehicle of world dominance and a one world government. Either way it still violates our Constitution to belong to iit and eigher way we don't have any business being a member.
I particularly don't want a one world government, a NAU, NAFTA, SPP or any of all that stuff. I want us to return to the Constitution and leave the rest of the world to solve their own problems in their own nations. Big momma US needs to cut the apron strings and let the rest of the world make their own way.
We need to maintain a strong military and make sure it is the best equiped so that no nation or group thereof will dare come against us. If they do we kick their asses, devistate their infrastructure and exact tribute from them like they did in the old days. Rebuild their nation? Set up a government, army, police,? No way they got themselves in the mess they can get temselves out of it.
No more wars of agression like Iraq. Defence until attacked then attack with all we have until victory. I am sick and tired of all this political wrangling. Elect a man who will lead our nation back to it's roots. Some will say that cant be done. This is not 1778 it is 2007. Bull! what we have is not working. Have we ever tried doing it the other way?
Not long ago, olga put up this quote in one of here articles and i pointed out this was said by heinz kissenger. The UN is a globalist vessel, no one can suggest that it has always acted in that capacity or that it has fully begun to serve the interests of the globalists yet. The more the powers of this world begin to globalize & its institutions begin to centralize, the more the powers of the UN will begin to become apparent as a globalist insititution. Such changes have already been to take place. The EU, the EEC, EFta, EFTA & NAFTA, the Euro & now quite likely the fulfillment of new proposals concerning the Amero.
"Big momma US needs to cut the apron strings and let the rest of the world make their own way."
This will only happen once globalists running the US (& not to mention the world) have been removed from power. The military too isnt free from such powers, "Kay Griggs" spoke extenively over this issue and she want the only one.
"A fundmentalist would be looking FORWARD to the second coming not fearing it. Once HE returns there will be 1000 years of Theocracy where God rules. The lion lays down with the lanb and alll of that pece stuff."
Although, i do not take my evidence of a globalizing world from prophecy, i do not dispute the possibility that such are true. But i must agree that fundmentalists have exploited the use of scriptures & used it to prepare for and adjust to the expectation of world government rather than telling us how to stop it or even significant truths behind it. Quite a number of these evangalists are financed by big oil and banking interests, which is a pretty indicator of whose interest they serve. Pat robertson i one of these, Greg palast did some work on this guy. He has had a pretty busy past in the marines, with his involvement in politics, business and even his associations with the bank of scotland.
Americans have exceptionally short memories and attention spans of what's been happening around the world. In Sveta's country, the Moscow apartment bombing in '99 that got them mired in Chechnya the same as we're slogged down in Iraq (we don't learn from example), to the tragedy in the Moscow theater and the awful massacre at Beslan.
There always have been and always will be nutcases willing to do harm. With modern technology, they can do it on a grander scale. The trick is to not allow ourselves to sink to the same level or live in mortal fear (or be coerced into fear by "leadership").
I have said before and will re-state it: WE have allowed OURSELVES to hand over dictatorial authority to elected officials that will now result in the cancellation of any elections next year "for our own porotection"...right.
As the cartoonist Walt Kelly said in 1971, "We have met the enemy and he is us!"
Exactly Jerry!!

Exactly. Terrorists can do a lot of damage -- knock down buildings, kill innocent folk -- but only we can subvert our liberties and destroy the very things that make this country worth defending. We've been thoughtless, and the Congress feckless...while the Bush bunch have been relentless and single-minded in their agenda. We need to take our country back.
