Why do you continue to define liberals in the most extrmeme way possible?
Can a person be willing to defend America with overwhelming force and still be interested in looking at possible causes for social ills and unrest. I know that a certain percentage of the world's population are freaking nuts (many are homegrown right here in the US) and can never be reasoned with, but in my humble opinion, I believe some may have a legitimate beef and I would like to try and resolve differences without killing each others kids. Does this mean I stand around and let someone slap me around . . . emphatically no. The two concepts are not mutually exclusive.

: But since we're at war, who cares what makes their list? Whilst some salt of the earth liberals want to try and save the world, they miss the fact that the same group of people keep getting direct hits on innocent westerners. If this is some clandestine suicide cult, you can count me out. If you can somewhow justify the listed murders - then shame on you.
: The one thing 9/11 did is knock NY support down for the IRA. The thing that the Brits always said was "if the Americans were caught up in an IRA attack, they'd change their minds about terrorism" Perhaps there needs to be another 9/11 to wake up the rest of these tortured liberals who refuse to see just what's at stake in this 'war on terror'.
