Hatred is the root cause of terrorism.

Wrong. The stimulation of hatred is the root source of power for the leaders of terrorism. It is like any other ultra-nationalist movement - objective reality only matters in that it need be distorted or suppressed.

We are sitting ducks. We are not wanted. We are hated.

...we will pay for this. We paid for it again earlier today in Saudi Arabia. We will continue to pay.

...we are "upping the ante" ...

There is an elevated risk that the results will be catastrophic.

Our foreign policy has been hijacked by radical ideologues ...

...we have a really dumb President ...

Weak minded people -- like yourself -- ...

This is the worst Presidency in living memory and a sad turning point for a proud nation.


Platitudes, stale metaphors, overused idiom, ad hominem, vague predictions of impending doom, and broad statements that are neither provable nor disprovable, but are empty in any case. Are you practicing to become a demagogue or have you fallen under the spell of one? Someone seems to have switched off your brain.
