Simple questions indeed. I comprehended what you said, and you said my argument was "convoluted." But you said it without explanation other than that which I delved into. Now you ignore the issue in question, further. I admit I shouldn't have said you can't explain, just that you hadn't explained (you offered nothing I haven't addressed on the matter, so it's a cinch case I make here). You still haven't tried. Simple questions indeed.

You've said "you should not underestimate the rightwing. They are determined to take this country to ruins similar to what what Hitler and his folks did to Germany and even worse."

Please explain "similar" and "worse." I'm certainly not a right wing religious fellow, but I don't believe even they want to "take this country to ruins." Perhaps you mean they are in danger of doing so by accident? So you say we are like Hitler and even worse. Please explain, and blast the following out of the water while you are at it.

You've acknowledged the situation is dissimilar elsewhere here, and it seems to me in this case that to the extent it is dissimilar, we are justified and have our hand forced, rather than being criminals ourselves. From America's view this is about terrorism, not religion (save acknowledgement of the full extent to which warped murderous "religion" is the root of terrorism; for Americans, the effect is key while the "religious" cause is secondary, save for purposes of "knowing one's enemy"). We know they want us gone, that they wish to actively murder us, and that they have done so. If they didn't think and act that way, we'd be leaving them alone. No, it is Al Qaeda and Saddam and the Iranian government and the N. Korean government and ect., which are all logically somewhat comparable to Hitler, not America nor even the Bush administration.

P.S. We spend money on padlocks yet know they won't stop thieves, so we spend to send police daily to hopefully round up the bad guys. Hey, it needs doing!

P.P.S.S. Simple enough answer for you? No? Darn, 'cause I think it is, per Occam's Razor.
