You heard it here first. 9/11 wasn't an attack on America.

God bless conservative revisionists.

Could you imagine if W hadn't sent the military over there? It's obvious you don't think much of our military.

OOH the "You don't support our troops" card. Haven't heard that one in awhile.

Ok let me re-phrase. 9/11 wasn't a major attack on the US. That is unless you consider a handful of muslims hijacking and crashing a couple of planes into a building an all out attack.

Man you really have no idea what's going on do you.


Right, a few guys in turbans decided to hop onto some airliners and said "hey, why don't we see where we can land them?"

It's not like they spent years studying flight paths and patterns, security procedures, enrolled in flight training schools, laundered large amounts of cash for living and travel expenses, closely co-ordinated operations and targeted distinct, separate cities that serve as political, military and economic hubs of the nation.

The way you downplay the magnitude of the event and condone the horribly botched response tells a lot to how little you care about your own nation and the people who work and fight for it. Even without your prior comments hoping that it happened again to the hometown of a politician you happen to dislike.

Could you imagine if Bush actually focused on Afghanistan and the Taliban instead of getting distracted with Iraq?

Hey, maybe you wouldn't be trying to blame the thousands of square miles in Pakistan which fell under Taliban control a year ago on Obama.

Dammit, why did this have to turn into a 9/11 thread? The subject is getting to be as bad as a Godwin.

Earlier, you said:

I am saying his approach to radical islam is emboldening these terrorists to do things they would never have dreamed under W.


But they did:

Quote:
They wanted to see if W would do anything. It was a test.


So it's a test, but <adopt a texan accent> "They wuldn't be tryin' that thar shit if W wuz still in office!" Seems they did. So explain to me, what's the fucking difference, aside from you spinning it as Obama doing something wrong that W did right?

Is this your way of running away from the fact that Bush's policy with Pakistan was an abject failure and resulted in a rebuilt and strengthened Taliban laying claim to a large section of Pakistan back in 2008?

Good to see that both you and Bush are so easily distracted from dealing with the Taliban once a shiney Iraq starts glinting Smiley: laugh

varrus, you're contradicting yourself. You've explicitly said in the past that the terrorists won't attack during Obama's administration. Instead they're going to wait for a republican president, because according to you it's a liberal conspiracy to make the GOP look bad.

Let me get this straight:

The group that killed over three thousand Americans at once isn't our enemy, but the regime that was incapable of attacking us needed to be removed immediately?

I didn't realize you could post here from the alternate Bizarro dimension.

I swore I'd never respond to any of your drivel, but curiosity is killing me. If you don't consider 9/11 an attack on the US, what has to happen for you to consider it an attack on the US? Because, yes, I consider a handful of muslims killing a few thousands unaware CITIZENS an attack and I'm pretty sure the majority of the country feels that way.

But don't you understand? That wouldn't support his current argument!

No. Just take my word for it; as a God fearing loyal US citizen.



Now THAT, is more scary than a terrorist attack.

Yes, Varrus posts require that you understand you're stepping into an alternate twilight zone. There is no concept of time, space, or logic. Just varrus. It's like Mr. Toads Wild Ride, without the wild, ride, or toad. In fact, it's no fun at all...

Things I have learned/relearned from Varrus in this thread:

1. 9/11 was not an attack on the US.
2. Varrus is a God-fearing loyal US citizen.
3. Who wants Chicago to be attacked by terrorists.
4. Despite never attacking us, having no nuclear weapons, not being connected to Al Quada, and being one of the reasons religious extremism never took over Iraq during his regime, Saddam was the main enemy to us in the ME.
5. It is Bush's fault that terrorists were not eaten by a grue.

Man, I want to play Zork now.
