Political Conversation and Debate This forum is not a temporary one. It will exist up to, and after the presidential elections. Some people want to talk or even argue politics, other's don't. Let's see if we can apply some reason and understanding to the debate.

Why is Al-Quieda threatening Italy?

As the Liberal Spin would have us believe, Iraq is the nicest place since the end of the rainbow: there never have been, and never will be terrorists, much less Al-Quieda terrorists in Iraq. We all read the New York Times, watch Dan Rather, and follow good honorable people like Bubba Clinton, Tom Daschle, and DICK Gephardt, as all good sheep should.

However, if this is all true, then why did Al-Quieda just threaten its next attack on Italy (more specifically the Italian Prime Minister), if the country doesn't take its troops out of Iraq??

I mean, we all KNOW that evil George Bush started this war just trying to get oil. I mean, he's gotten a ton of it so far, hasn't he? And we all know that no Al-Quieda terrorist (or terrorist cell) has ever had anything to do with, or been within a country mile of such a wonderful place like Iraq.

But if Dan Rather & the rest of our honest unbiased Liberal media is correct, then why does Al-Quieda take such interest in Iraq? Curious ... I mean, trying to find a terrorist in Iraq is more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack, isn't it???

I blame it all on George Bush: he's not even supposed to BE in office! I mean, since when do ELECTORAL votes & not the popular votes determine a Presidential election?? When we have good Liberals in office like John F. Kennedy, they never start unecessary wars like the one in Vietnam, do they?? I mean, its not like Ronald Reagan ended the Cold War or anything, is it??

JUST GIVING A HELLO & A HOLLA TO MY LIBERAL BUDS OUT THERE: Woody, Tibbs, B.S., etc. - I won't be replying to this, but I want ya to know that I'm still around & looking forward to a great Election season.

"then why does Al-Quieda take such interest in Iraq?"

Uh, because we invaded them and US troops are there. Funny how Al Qaida didn't plan any terrorist attacks in Iraq before the US showed up. Let me know if that logic doesn't make sense.

Uh, dickweed, the only "Iraqis" that Al-Crankya is targeting are those directly involved with the US (Al-Crankya's enemy). Before we invaded Iraq and ousted Hussein, those now targeted by Al-Crankya were in no position to threaten them. Let me know if that logic doesn't make sense. Now, why don't you go blow your hero Vijay Singh?

You have got to be [censored]tin' me Tibor?

It is a good strategy to take the war to the next best man (Saddam)...bad part is complaining about closing the borders to foreign fighters? I say let them all into "A Rock" and fight them there!

I'm not left/right...conservative/liberal....republican/democrate....but you can bet your ass that this fight needs to stay right where it's at...you don't want this [censored] pot here again!

Soory ..good reply Milli

We invaded Iraq, not Al Quida. Why should Al Quida care if we invaded Iraq?

The same reason why Al Qaida cares about Kashmir. It's a holy war...jihad...all that [censored]. Hilarious how you don't even have a basic understanding of what's going on there.

It's amazing how you completely missed the point of my question, then had the nerve to act like *I* don't know what's going on.

You're hilarious. The most hilarious part is that you don't even intend to be.
