SilverNRed Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 "Now, it's war." ??? I thought this was interesting.
Peter Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 My wife and son are there right now visiting my in-laws. I cannot wait until they get back on Saturday.
alg Posted November 10, 2004 Posted November 10, 2004 He and others said the public discourse, even among members of government, reached an unprecedented pitch and included language that went far beyond the limits set for public forums in the United States. A South African friend of mine, explaining the volital way Germans and other Euopeans 'debate' issues stated that their rules a very different then ours. It is nothing for them to call you all manner of swine to make a point (I had seen this 1st hand.) For them to take the gloves off means to me that our recent polarization will look downright civil in comparison. Are they in Iraq? or am I thinking of Belgium? In any event, it looks like we may have some more, and highly motivated company in kicking some butt. That is if there is anyone left when they're done with each other...

erynthered Posted November 11, 2004 Posted November 11, 2004 "Now, it's war." ??? I thought this was interesting. 112122[/snapback] Interesting article. If its true. The spread of Islamic terrorism will continue, until Gov. across this world start fighting back. Sad but true. Whats on TV?
blzrul Posted November 11, 2004 Posted November 11, 2004 Just goes to show you what an extremist can accomplish in confronting other extremists.

My ancesters (the Van Valkenburg's) hail from Valkenburg and I've always wanted to see the castle ruins there.

It depends on the time of year and whether there are any sales. We paid as little as $200 (by travelling on Christmas day one year) and as high as $700. You should go. It is a great country and the people are really nice. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Fan in San Diego Posted November 11, 2004 Posted November 11, 2004 If left unchecked, the future holds all out war between Muslims and everyone else in a struggle for survival. May the best man win. Evolution continues. I dont want to convert to Muslim so I hope we win.

Peter Posted November 11, 2004 Posted November 11, 2004 You reap what you sow Netherlands 112590[/snapback] What kind of comment is that? By the way, the Netherlands IS part of the coalition of the willing. P.S. Did we reap what we sowed on 9/11?
spidey Posted November 11, 2004 Posted November 11, 2004 What kind of comment is that? P.S. Did we reap what we sowed on 9/11? 112615[/snapback] Maybe you need to understand world history and understand what was done in the middle east since 1900. We supported dictators( shahs in places like Iran and Iraq), we supported creation of a Jewish state and displaced many arabs in doing so, we supported Iraqi Dictator when he was ragging a chemical war on his Iranian neighbor. Now I am not saying these directly caused 9/11 attacks but it shows why some in the region arent so happy with us.
DC Tom Posted November 11, 2004 Posted November 11, 2004 As long as we Americans maintain our monopoly on military technology, we're safe. 112537[/snapback] Like the rest of the world is running around with rocks and pointy sticks.
