Don't try to lie yourself out of your self-definition. You are part of the domestic enemy-the traitorous 20%. And America has awakened, and WILL REMEMBER...

They may not say this officially but are you so dense to not realize that this is a statement to the Arab street to get their fanatics under control? Do you not see that this hit on Iraq is far more than just about Saddam? The Jihad has been growing while western liberals seek to feminize men. Osama stated how weak we are. This weakness is because the men are being feminized and destroyed by the liberals of this country. This is ending as the US women wake up to the reality that Clinton lied. This world is not a safe place. It never has been We spend little on the military and waste billions on failed social policies. JUST HOW MANY 9/11's ARE YOU PREPARED TO TAKE? WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK WOULD BE LEFT OF THIS ECONOMY?

Saddam's 9/11 Hijack Training Camp Destroyed A South Baghdad terrorist training facility used before the 9/11 attacks to train al-Qaeda recruits to hijack American airliners using small knives was attacked by U.S. forces Saturday night. "The 1st Marine Expeditionary Force raided a training camp near Salman Pak and destroyed it," U.S. Brig. Gen. Vince Brooks told reporters Sunday morning. "We believe it had been used to train foreign fighters not from Iraq," he added, in some of the first comments by a U.S. official hinting that Saddam Hussein's regime was training terrorists from other countries. "The nature of the work being done by some of those people we captured, their inferences about the type of training they received, all these things give us the impression that there is terrorist training that was conducted at Salman Pak," Gen. Brooks explained, according to a report by the Press Association Limited. Salman Pak has been named in a trillion-dollar lawsuit filed by families of Sept. 11 victims against Iraq and Saudi Arabia. In February, three Salman Pak defectors and two U.N. weapons inspectors, along with former CIA Director James Woolsey, were called to testify about the hijacking school. Although the testimony has not been made public, Capt. Sabah Khodad, a former Iraqi intelligence officer who had worked at Salman Pak in 1994 and 1995, told the London Observer that when he saw the World Trade Center attack, he immediately thought, "This has been done by graduates of Salman Pak." Commenting on Salman Pak's destruction, Maj. Robert Bevelaqua (Ret.) told Fox News Channel on Sunday: "That was a key site for us to go after because it blatantly shows the Iraqi regime embraces and teaches and indoctrinates their guys in terrorism. The fact that we had overhead imagery a year ago or so that showed a civilian airliner that they were using [to rehearse hijackings] really just kind of smacked of terrorism." Bevelaqua noted that forces manning Salman Pak who were killed in Saturday night's attack included non-Iraqis from countries such as Yemen, Jordan, Iran and Syria. The CIA had largely dismissed reports by Khodad and other Salman Pak defectors who claimed that the camp's hijack trainees were recruited from throughout the Middle East.

Troops, journalists undergo cleanup for nerve gas exposure By TOM LASSETER Knight Ridder Newspapers bayarea.com ALBU MUHAWISH, Iraq - U.S. soldiers evacuated an Iraqi military compound on Sunday after tests by a mobile laboratory confirmed evidence of sarin nerve gas. More than a dozen soldiers of the Army's 101st Airborne Division had been sent earlier for chemical weapons decontamination after they exhibited symptoms of possible exposure to nerve agents. The evacuation of dozens of soldiers Sunday night followed a day of tests for the nerve agent that came back positive, then negative. Additional tests Sunday night by an Army Fox mobile nuclear, biological and chemical detection laboratory confirmed the existence of sarin. Sgt. Todd Ruggles, a biochemical expert attached to the 2nd Brigade of the 101st Airborne said, "I was right" that chemical agents Iraq has denied having were present. In addition to the soldiers sent for decontamination, a Knight Ridder reporter, a CNN cameraman and two Iraqi prisoners of war also were hosed down with water and bleach.
