Okay I'll keep it on topic, but that is their goal to induce everyone to bow down to Islam ... I read (if I have to I'll go get it) (I will) that they had a ceritan percentage of converts going for them when they got all huffy puffy about the cartoon in the Danish papers. That set them back.

They have a plan and they talk it up as if everyone is going to be pro Muslim and see it their way someday.

My vice-president see's more top secret intelligence reports on the subject than we do and don't bring up the fact that his boss was wrong about WMD's ... he's just like a lot of us ... He only wanted to hear what he wanted to hear.

The intelligence they recieve can't be all wrong, now can it?

He's paid not to be like the rest of us.

No, but it can be twisted to fit the need of the moment depending on the subject matter.

So, what has Cheney twisted in this report?

Considering this was said to an Australian audience in Australia by an American I reckon at least two counties get to have a crack at what was said!

It's your choice to stay silent and I respect that. Respect my choice to comment about it when it impacts citizens of my country as well as yours.

Aside from all being global citizens commenting on a global issue not a local one, there are Australians in Afghanistan, Iraq, Bali and other places that are being impacted by what is being said by this guy. Added to that the fact he was talking to us about it gives us a right to comment by my reckoning.

Does it really matter if someone outside the country makes a comment on a discussion board discussing this topic?

I do believe some of you may need to see this thread:

In the same way Americans in these same places are being impacted. It is largely because of what Bush/Cheney have said that our troops are in the first two and that our citizens were killed or injured in Bali.

Cheney saying something in 2007 caused radical Islamists to blow up Aussies in 2002, right...

And here I thought Australia sent troops to Afghanistan because of a shared outrage over 9-11, little did I know they have to go to war whenever becuase Bush/Cheney says so...

Not quite sure what TarJak was trying to say, but that Cheney has invented time-travel wasn't it.

As for Bali... it was one of the biggest catalysts for Australia's involvement in the war on terror.

On Indonesia... it is known that the Indonesian government has had a helping hand in terrorist attacks on it's own soil, as an excuse to pass tougher laws and justify sticter control.

I'm always humble. It's just that everything I happen to say is always right! Just ask my kids.
