Torturing suspects confirms everything Al-Qaeda says about the United States, and the West in macro.

Well, now I can see why you don't get it. The problem? You CAN'T satisfy them. They think its their right to put you under Sharia law - and they intend to take over your country and mine and any means to that end is justified. You cannot appease them. You cannot appeal to them. You can only obey them.

:rotfl:Since when, prior to Bush's Iraqi War, did Muslims ever demonstrate their desire to "take over the country", referring to the US or Britain? Never. What I see is a group of people who are tired of the US butting in and meddling in their affairs. The fact that they are Muslim is secondary. The US has for decades meddled in the affairs of other nations and THIS is the price... 9/11 was a certainly a tragic event, but when you take off the "American Patriotism-colored glasses" it's hardly worse than what as been done to others in the name of "freedom" and democracy.
No, Mr. Bush created a convenient "war on terror" that was NOT in least justified and if he gives an inch or a single concession, his illusion will vaporize and the American people may come to know just how lied to and misled they've been.
