What do you think blowback is? A simple disagreement over foreign policy? They hate us for the things we have done and continue to do.

I agree with that article, Andrew, but that guy in the video is scary as all hell.

This guy is not a product of blowback. This guy is a 100% certified kook. What is a product of blowback is that he actually has an audience.

There will always be kooks like this. In every country of the world. I imagine there are kooks like this right now in Japan. The difference is that in Japan they have no audience to speak to.

But perhaps the most scarry part in all of this is that the American kooks (the Islamofascist brigade) have an audience of millions - courtesy of the mainstream media.

I thought that blowback was "cause and effect"...our foriegn policy causing a reaction against said policy...no?

Blowback = all unintended consequences.

Good Article

I want to agree with that article but it seems as though discerning the good muslims from the bad is like fighting a mosquito infestation and only going after only the "mosquito" that intends to bite "you".

What !!!!

Did his rant sound like the result from a simple disagreement to you? Has anything we've done deserve a massive anthrax attack on the scale he is talking about?

I'm sure there is religious justification within the Koran for this clowns desire to kill as many of us as possible.

A very bad analogy. It is in the nature of mosquitos to bite us, regardless of what we do.

Absolutely spot on. Michael Scheuer points out this in his book Through our enemies eyes, saying that Khomeini tried to persuade followers to attack the West for our values. It didn't happen. It was after we started getting involved over there that these nut burgers started getting an audience.

How about you turn the tables? Has anything they`ve done deserve what they got from "you"?

Yes. But who says that hate isn't part of the reaction? They're not blowing themselves up because they like us. They do it because they hate us. They hate us because of our foreign policy.

Don't let the touchy-feely do-gooders tell you that hate is always purely irrational bigotry or fear or lack of understanding. You can hate someone for perfectly logical and legitimate reasons.

 

[SWATH]

Yup, I hate squash for perfectly logical and legitimate reasons, it sucks!

9/11, Cole, Embassies ond on and on and on...

How about you turn the tables? Has anything they`ve done deserve what they got from "you"?

how about some pure truth...what exactly have we done to them?

500,000 children dead as a result of sanctions on Iraq.

Well....Start with this.

A better question: What hasn't the West done to the mid east?

 

[TechnoMage]

Your're kidding...right !!!!

500,000 children dead as a result of sanctions on Iraq.

that is hardly truth

is this the part where I'm supposed to forget that Sadamn built palaces out of gold, fed his military quite well and bought tons of military hardware while under sanction. our soldiers found tons of un relief that was not distributed to the "children".

to lay that at our feet is bullshit and you know it!
