How many Americans will be beheaded under Bush?

[Jabbery]

How many more Americans will be beheaded in faraway lands by thugs who hate our government? How many more of our fellow citizens will be kidnaped and have their heads brutally cut off until the American people rise up and change the way their government bahaves toward the people of the world?

I think the criminals who did this are murderers who deserve to be imprisoned, but they didn't just conjure up this idea out of the blue. They came to believe that the suffering their corrupt and brutal government has foisted upon them has been aided and abetted by the US government, which has been more interested in oil than in working with the people of that nation and dispelling the rantings of the psycho Mullahs and Imams who egg them on.

So they kidnaped and beheaded a man who performs maintenance on the armed helicopters which the Saudi government uses to keep its rank and file population repressed. They picked a symbol - as they always do - and they brutally murdered him.

Sadly, he won't be the last.

George W. Bush simply shrugs his narrow shoulders and says "we won't deal with terrorists." He doesn't seem capable of understanding that that more than 50 years of misguided American foreign policy is more responsible than anything else for creating the terrorists to begin with.

We are becoming the new Israel. Soon, they will be beheading us on our own soil. And the Republicans will tell us that a military response is the only response. Except that it has never, ever worked.

1. My guess is 25

And will spell doom for * and a indictment plus impeachment proceedings will begin immediately after November 2nd, since there's no political reasonable not to do it.... Off to Hague he goes.

2. Curious: Can you cite any examples of Saudi Apaches >

being used to "repress the rank and file"?

As odious as the House of Saud has proven to be, Saudi Arabia is a sovereign nation and has a right to defend its borders; the role for which the Apache was deployed, IME.

4. Yes - there are hundreds of instances

Bedouins who host Mullahs and Imams hostile to the Saudi Oil Family have been repeatedly harrassed and attacked by Apache aircraft in their camps. Their herds have been strafed and their wells have been hit by missles - there are countless cases of eyewitnesses to this madness. How are they "defending their borders" when they are using these weapons on their own people, misguided as those people may be in our estimation?

5. I'll google that, thanks.

3. Does anyone here have the link

to that animation of bombing Iraq and it's inevitable back & forth escalations? I have it stashed away somewhere, but I'll need it fairly soon.

6. Why stop at faraway lands?

It is only a matter of time before al Queda beheads people right off the streets in our own America, well, I can see that happening.
