Christ did not need to take up arms against his enemies. He chose the time and place of his own death. When confronted with violence he always escaped from it, yet the new testament does NOT say stand idly by while people kill your brothers.
I love the way the media and the liberals forget about Sadam and his reign of terror.
We fought an undeclared war in the 90's with Sadam.
We continuously bombed every radar installation in Iraq during the Clinton Years and all the while Sadam was trying to find ways to attack this country. With the fall of the Soviet Union and the money funneled to him by Liberal Idiots in the UN like Khofi Anan's son, Sadam was close to making deals with the hundreds of millions of dollars. While his actual nuclear program was buried for future use, buying a nuke was a definite possibility.
Beyond that are the payments he made to Terror Bombers in Israel who killed American Citizens. The 3 terrorists he gave Iranian citizenship to in order to protect them from US Legal Actions. The terrorist who killed the guy in the wheelchair on the Achille Lauro, an American Citizen.
Sadam Hussein was promoting terror. It may not all have been against the United States, but it was terror and we made a promise to terrorists after 9-11 that we would NOT TOLERATE them.
When George Bush said "You are either with us or against us" the country gave him an approval rating in the high 80 percentile. When he acted on those words you jumped off the train so fast your heads are still spinning from what I see here.
EVERY president has fumbled words.
Every President has had issues and dishonesty in his administration.
The press in this country though was so vested in the defeat of George Bush that it has ignored many big news stories that have proven Bush made the right decisions.
The things you libs forget would fill a book.
The things you remember are of minor consequence.
WMD intelligence was a direct result of the Clinton Administration removing all on the ground spying from the CIA and cutting the Defense Intelligence Budget and the CIA budgets by 9 BILLION DOLLARS after the First WTC attacks.
Blame Bush all you want, but the attacks on 9-11 were the direct result of wrong headed moves on the part of the Clinton Administration.
If you want to blame the current problems on Bush fine.. do so, but let us not forget that had Clinton shown any backbone in the early 90's we would never have suffered 9-11.
Then there is the issue of the millions of people Sadam killed in his own nation. Was going to kill in his own nation. The women his sons raped and killed the lack of civil rights allowed to women. Yet you libs forget that he liberated millions from this caste system.
If you ask the Iraqi's most thank Bush.
The media never shows that, but soldiers returning from Iraq tell this story all the time. Strange that the media ignores it.
