I wonder how many people, who were unjustifiably killed in the US last year or any other year, would at least have had a chance to survive had they owned a gun, but did not believe that law abiding citizens should own a gun (and probably thought we should pull out of Iraq). Also, why was there no media coverage of the Muslim, who left a Friday service at the local mosque in Seattle a couple of months ago, and went out and shot( gunned down) 6 women, killing one ( I think she was the one who was pregnant, though it is hard for me to remember exactly on account of no one talking or even knowing about it)?????I would think people would be curious about what was preached at that service.

The war in Iraq is much like Vietnam. Iran,like Russia and/or China in Vietnam is the real enemy in Iraq, I think. They are using the two factions, Shiite's and Sunni's, who are, apparently, gullible enough to be misled into killing each other ( or anyone else who happens to get close enough to them). When the violence starts to die down, Iran sends in a squad of their guys, from wherever they have to send them, and they kill a bunch of people and act like they were from the enemy of the people they kill.This could be Shiite killing Sunni, vice versa, or anyone killing Americans,or kidnapping anyone. It does not take much to get them to start back up killing each other.You can see that their version of religion is BS because they claim if they die in combat they go to heaven on get to have sex with a bunch of ... err virgins ( their's is supposed to be the God of Abraham- yea, right), yet they get all upset when one of their terrorists gets killed by us.Can they not see the glaring hole in their witness? Are they that stupid. I believe most terrorists are poor Arabs who hate America because even  many of the poorest Americans are obese.If they were really so happy to be a martyr, we could give them a hand. I bet there would not be so many jihadists if we told them those stealths that just left out of Missouri were loaded with nukes, so get your supply of heavenly condoms ready. Anyway, the war in Iraq is just like Vietnam where the commies were using those poor stupid Vietnamese to bleed America until we cut and ran. Every time we had them on the ropes, they would start wanting peace talks.Then the libs would make us stop destroying them, and they would use the break in action to rebuild their forces.Then they would start the war back up.The sad part is, we fell for it every time- same as in Korea. And it is going to happen in Iraq, unless we change the stupid rules of engagement. If we had done that in Korea, we would not have to worry about China launching those nukes at us that we are buying for them (which they plan to do sooner or later- when we have given them our last dollar) . And we would have won the war in Vietnam in the 60's with real war tactics. The liberals , by blaming their problems on others, never learn a  thing, except how to play dirty tricks on their rivals, and they are so good at it that they will always have a strong influence on America, unfortunately.

I wish people would stop minimizing the evility of the insane islamists. They do not behead their prisoners. They would never do that. They hold their prisoners down, take a semi-sharp knife, and saw the head off of their prisoners who they deem to not be evil enough for them. This looks much more painful than simply beheading a person. The reason I know this is because they also video tape and then post these atrocities on the net. They follow that by stoking up the flames that are going to roast them in hell by proclaiming that GOD had them do the evil deed they decided to do. Offending someone by criticizing or poking fun at someone DOES NOT CREATE a problem, IT REVEALS a problem.  Walking on eggshells to avoid offending someone only makes the problem worse. The offendee will BECOME PROGRESSIVLY MORE AND MORE SENSITIVE and/or VIOLENT as long as we allow them to be specially treated just because they are so uncomfortable with who they are or how powerful the telescope is that they have to use to look up to us with. A healthy relationship allows both humorous satire and honest criticism. When these are reacted to with anger and/or violence, there must be some truth in the remarks the offendee does not intend to correct, yet knows is probably not a good characteristic to posess. These people need to be held accountable for their actions to the point that they change their beliefs or just leave US alone.
