Bush has been the best friend & recruiter of Al-Qaida

Bush can be the poster child for AL Qaida without attempting to be. The problem is that Bush has but one answer for each event that comes up and stubbornly refuses to consider alternatives. This lets a more nimble advesary change tactics until the Bush position is completely counter productive.

This may not fit the definition for friend, but it sure can describe an enabler.

Did you even try to read the link? I very much doubt it. So read the whole link and you will see why: "Bush has been the best friend & recruiter of Al-Qaida and Bin Laden."

It was a well written article. More needs to be written on this. I have watched this phenomena for years. It has grown from nothing, so ridiculous that people scoffed 5 or 10 years ago, to something that is alive in the streets of Western Cities. Imagine how much more serious the tone is in more fundamental and isolated monotheistic regions of the world.

It is not about Bush. Trying to make it about Bush or Tony Blair guarantees its success. The endorsement by strong spirited youth is about anti-establishment ideals that wont easily be brought under the reigns of political authority. This is very serious.

He hits it on the nail. Maybe you oughta re-examine your little postulates. Take human nature in account. Have a little empathy, as the Rolling Stones say.
