Oh. You mean we're at war? We already knew that. Oh, and al Qaeda was around LONG before Iraq, remember?

So when a nation that decides to aid us in that war gets hit, we should blame it on them? Are you ready to go over there and tell those families it's REALLY their own fault?

So what's YOUR solution, Neville? Have us all convert to Islam? I think that's all they will settle for. If that.

Think hard now.

Yeah, there was a connection. There was a connection between FDR telling the Japanese to get the **** out of China and cutting off oil and iron to them and Pearl Harbor too. So should we have surrendered on Dec. 8, 1941, Neville?

I think under that rationale FDR caused Pearl Harbor (by cutting off Japanese oil), Churchill caused the Battle of Britain (by opposing Hitler's acquisition spree), Haile Selassie caused the Italians to invade Ethiopia (by taking umbrage at the Italian demands in that country), and so on.

Why would al Qaeda blame Spain? The US acted unilaterally in Iraq, remember? Without any allies, remember?

Oh, is Spain the 51st state now and I missed something?

Maybe France and Germany didn't join the coalition because they didn't want to be subject to terrorist reprisals.

Maybe they'd rather just do business with terrorists' patrons (Saddam paid $30,000 apiece to the families of Palestinian suicide bombers, remember? A fact that the left doesn't like to bring up).

Tell us, PT Barnum, how did Bush's policies get 3,000 people killed in the WTC?

Who started this? Who's supporting it? Who's fighting it?

Put the bong down and think real hard, PT.
