OT. In your post to Long gone you said......." So that you know, I'm NOT a Muslim and never was. I came from an extended family that has been contributing Priests and Nuns and Brothers to the "Mission". Despite this, I have never been anti-Islam."......

The Presedent of the USA and many other of our leaders and the Presedent of Pakistan have all said this is not a war against Islam " IT IS A WAR AGAINST TERRORIST ".

I don't know if anyone gives a rats butt what religion you are I know that I don't because in my country all religions are accepted. What I and I would guess most others on this thread fear are TERRORIST and it is very difficult to know who they are.

You also said ....." So, what am I, really? "...." I am a freethinker just like the late Sir Bertrand Russell and others."......" For example, I have never fully agreed with some of the things the US have done overseas.".....

Then think about this. You are free to express your freethinking thoughts in our Countries because that freedom has been fought
and paid for. TERRORIST have attacked our way of life, our freedoms.

As for what the USA may have done overseas or our Country or many other countries is not the problem
at this time. WE HAVE BEEN ATTACKED BY TERRORIST that is the problem.

Look, for the last 4 years folks on this thread have been complaining about things that we think our Gov.'s have done that is stupid we don't have to go overseas.
Gov.s will always be making mistakes and some of us will always be complaining....But we are free to openly complain and that freedom is being threatened.
McVeigh was a terrorist and where is he?

I know you're no a follower of Islam, as I'm also aware these terrorists are not decent representatives of Islam. These days one needs stand clearly for the US & the American way of life.
