Satellite,
You are missing a few points here. No surprise. First off, lets make something clear.
These types of emails are MASS EMAILINGS generated by the RNC headquarters. They are sent out to registered republicans and then asked to forward them on if they believe in PATRIOTISM, PEACE and REVENGE.
Of course, this works with those who limit their brains to believe such nonsense.
Your post asks to have her question answered.
OK, lets do it, for your sake.
Q:'Are we fighting a war on terror or aren't we?
A: No. We are not. It is a fact, that IRAQ had nothing to do with ANY terrorist act previously anywhere in the world or had anything whatsoever to do with 911. THIS IS A FACT.
What you and others fail to understand after 5 years of war, is the ever changing concept behind the invasion. IRAQ was a PRE-EMTIVE war to prevent terrorism not a response to TERRORISM.
Its the way the words are used that convince some people otherwise.
The "inferences" made in these type of professional emailings are written exclusively for the purpose of making the reader lose sight of reality and play upon his or her emotions.
Q:"Was it or was it not started by Islamic people who brought it to our shores on September11,2001"
A: NO. It was started by a clandestined group of Saudi Arabians and a few jordanians and egyptians.
The suggestion here is that the collective peoples of the muslim / islamic worlds conspired to harm america on 911 and this is not true.
There are over 30 million islamic peoples in the world today. Are we to believe that they ALL got together and created a plan to attack America cause thats what the Quran told them to do?
Were all the muslim basketball players in the NBA involved as well??
Please tell me no.
This type of propaganda only hurts america , not help it.
You could use any excuse to justify the IRAQ war today. Except, the excuses are running thin in IRAQ.
After 5 years, 3225 dead us soldiers, a trillion dollars spent, our equiptment wasted in the desert, countless depleted uranium bombs dumped on a country, fighting among ourselves here in the USA, hundreds of thousands of IRAQI civilians killed, millions displaced to other countries to live in tents and shacks, millions of IRAQi kids missing school or heath coverage....and the IRAQI PRESIDENT sez.....
"ITS TIME FOR THE US TO LEAVE IRAQ"
Mission accomplished??
Just yesterday, President ALmaliki told the press that he supported Barack H. Obamas Plan for withdrawal in 16 months. He said that Americas presence in IRAQ is HURTING his country, not helping.
WHAT? I though we were the good guys?
If I were the president of the USA, After hearing this, I would make the call and start withdrawing troops immediately. Let them fight it out by themselves, but we know better.
This president isnt going anywhere anytime soon, he knows better.
We know whats best for IRAQ, not the elected leadership there.
This president will get every marine and soldier killed first in order to get westernized oil companies comfortably situated in IRAQ.
He aint going anywhere.
Despite the call from the IRAQI goverment to get out, we ignore them.
Our arrogance will get our fighting men and women killed.
Just like the Russians in Afghanistan when Reagan was sending billions of dollars in military aid in his proxy war (just like iran is doing to us)
I challenge any of you to provide the email address for this email and allow me to follow it to its source.
Of course, this type of email propaganda has been forwarded hundreds of times, and to people that nobody really knows.
RNC propaganda at its best. Its all they have.
They cant stand on issues, record or success, just FEAR.
Time to listen to the realities Satellite, IRAQ wants us out and so do I.
Peace, from an American listening
