If you can make a comparable argument for Christian terrorism the last forty years, bring it.

This is true of at least the two brothers (that they were "truthers").

It is curious that Dzhokhar obtained his citizenship only months before (on Sept. 11, 2012), which means that any oath of allegiance to the United States was fraudulent, unless we are to believe he became what we now know him to be in only a few short months. This is unlikely, in view of his "tweets," of less than a year ago, one stating that he "want[ed] out" of America.

There is no "conspiracy theory" here. There is only truth. And, putting the facts together and forming an opinion (or coming to a conclusion), is anything but "wacko." It is what we, as rational, thinking people, and as a nation, must do if we are to survive in a world in which lives millions of adherents to a religious philosophy that teaches that it is their duty to use force and violence to bring the World under submission to their cultic belief system.

Western civilization, Western culture, especially America, and the American way of life, are seen as evil by Islam. We had better begin to understand this. There is no coexistence possible with such a people.

We must question our President's attitudes toward terrorism as well, since he has stated such things as,
"I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in any ugly direction." Also, speaking before the UN, "The future must not belong to those who would slander the prophet of Islam."

Reticent to call recent attacks by Islamists against Americans, "terrorism," or even to use the word, "Islamist," to describe such individuals, we must question Mr. Obama's allegiance.

We have not learned the lessons of the past. A review of history is in order. There was a reason for the Crusades, as Christian countries were being overrun by hordes of Muslims, slaughtering millions, in Jihad, conquering city after city.

This era of "tolerance" is proving to be our undoing. It is time for America to take a stand, or we will become, not of our choosing, but because of our ignorance and failure to act, a Muslim nation.

Being tolerant, has gotten us nowwhere, when you have people using their religion to destroy and kill innocent Americans.

America does need to take a stand, but America also needs to admit exactly who did this and why. Were they living amongst us, why of course. This was our payback~ To not call certain attacks Terrorist, if we know them for sure this is what they are, is ludicious. Call it as it is, no protecting anyone, and if so why so.

Don't worry. Everybody sees the connection. Only the Leftist media is trying to deflect away from what is obvious.

The IRA is a limited regional, not worldwide example, that is also politically specific to Ireland.
Again, not too comparable to al-Qaeda and related Islamic jihad.

That's all we know.
Yes he had a "connection" but I am sure the twit was not a religious scholar. It's getting to look like Muslims and their religion vary as much as Christian sect do...There is Christian nut bar and there is Christian light. I notice that Muslims living in Canada will sometimes denounce any sort of zealotry because THEY LIKE IT HERE...life is good for them and they don't need the worst parts of Islam.

On the other hand all it would take to radicalize a good kid would be to say...."Look my son - the nation of Islam is under attack - they insult Allah and his glorious prophet...it is your duty to kill as many of them as you can..God demands this of you - MEANWHILE the person doing the radicalization is just a common gangster looking for kicks and power.

There is one thing that hurts America..it's the interloping into the back water nations who are no threat and the collateral damage (killing of civilians) .


The war on terror can not be stopped nor will it ever stop. If you have a huge military with tons of super expensive hardware - and millions of jobs are dependent on the manufacture of war supplies...you must create conflict. America is addicted to war...and those with investments in the military industrial complex are the drug pushers....Terror=big business....How are you going to cure this addiction?

Also: The issue can best be described - If you have a huge expensive military you must use it. If you do not use it you can not justify the cost. You can not justify the taxing of the population to meet the cost...YOU NEED CONFLICT to justify the billions spent. It seems that the war on terror serves two camps...One which is the war lord who uses Islam to maintain his power...and two- Those super elite in the west who are directly or indirectly benefiting from the sale of war supplies. On both sides of the fence - only a small elite are benefiting form this- The rest of the people on both sides get caught in the damned cross fire of this evil enterprise.

Its why OBL attacked, The war in Iraq and a military presence in Saudi Arabia.

Its not hard to see its the same crap that the Fort Hood shooter attacked over. Yelling allahu akbar. Now the left wing press is trying desperately to spin it as anything but. This is because they want to have an inclusive view of Islam. "Its really a peaceable religion. No its Fing not. Its anything but that. The left wants to be tolerant of every one and every thing but the gun culture, Christian religion and White males.

Onward Christian Soldiers marching as to War with the Cross of Jesus going on before!!!!
