Wanna make a freeper develop turret's syndrome?
(no offense to any turret's afflicted, of course)

Ask them what bush has actually accomplished in his "war on terror".

Ask how many al queda ops are in custody, charged and awaiting trial.

Ask how many al queda are dead.

(nothing, zero and zero).

Then, ask why the various european countries have managed to capture hundreds of terrorists, while the bush regime has failed to capture one single al queda member, dead or alive.

So much for the war on terror, eh?

1. What about Gitmo?
Not that I want to help freepers in any way, but seriously, what about the thousands of people we have locked away without any rights at all in Guantanamo Bay?

4. problem is, we don't know who any of them are
rounded up without charges, in secret, without even their names released, and now going on 3 years later and still no charges.... One would think that if any of thoe hundreds were actuall terrorists, we would be seeing the public show trials to feed the hungry freeps...

:shrug:

13. Clinton was able to try and convict actual terrorists
in much less time

Seriously, this would be a PR extravaganza if they could get even ONE or TWO of these people locked away for actual crimes of terrorism. The fact that we are not hearing one peep tells me a lot.

17. Yes, when Freeps try to point out the "failures"
of the Clinton administration, I refer them to the many "terrorist snatches" successfully pulled off by Clinton's team, including one Mir Amal Kansi. I only remember the name and that Richard Clarke headed up the "snatch team"...wish I had my copy of "Against All Enemies" on me.

Can anyone come up with the stuff for the Kansi snatch?

5. Perhaps the tank's turret?
I think he meant Tourette's syndrome. Sure hope he fixes that spelling.

6. some of Al Quaeda has probably been killed in Afgahanstan
Some of Al Quaeda has probably been killed by the US in Afgahanstan.

For example, Muhammed Atef.

9. we have killed and captured many Al Qaeda operatives
just not the most important ones, nor the one's Bush promised to get. And since bush has taken his war on terra to Al Qaeda the number of attacks by Al Qaeda has INCREASED
