You're right, it was GW Bush that did that.
"Have you read the constitution?"
Have you read the Patriot Act?
"THAT IS WHY THEY HATE US."
Who? Bush, Cheney and the gang? They hate our freedom? Yes, that's why they have concocted this 'war on terror' to curtail the inconvenince of allowing us the freedoms we claim as inherent in all persons.
"We allow choice"
We weren't allowed to choose our most recent president, we weren't allowed to choose whether to go to war.
"Did you know you can be whipped in some muslim countries for drinking a beer and dancing with a girl?"
Did you know that you can be taken captive and sent off to be tortured for no reason in the United States?
"This is not a game, these people will slit your throat just as fast as they would slit mine if they could."
Oh please, by 'these people' who do you mean, Muslims?
"Please investigate for yourself. I hope you come around, we need all the help we can if we are going to survive the days to come."
Who is this 'we' you keep referring to? Ignorant bigots?
"I aint shittin you! The whole "we started this" argument can be quickly debunked with Wikipedia and about 5 minutes."
It's going to take more than 5 minutes research to straighten out.
"PS- Yes we had business in Afghanistan, were you watching TV earlier this century. See any news articles about planes hitting buildings?"
What do you claim is the connection between planes hitting buildings and the US Air Force dropping bombs on Afghanistan?
"Iraq is debatable, but even the left wing politicians believed in going after the Taliban and Al Queada."
Politicians can beleive whatever they want to believe, I've seen no evidence to justify the US invasion of Iraq, no evidence connecting Al-Quaeda with the events of 9/11/2001 and never even heard anyone say the Taliban was responsible for attacks on the US.
Please, before you try to lecture me on world affairs, open your eyes and do some research yourself. Your post screams ignorance.
Being stupid is not correctable, and I wouldn't expect you to try to change if I thought stupidity was the problem... but remaining ignorant is something you chose for yourself, since you obviously have access to the same information I have access to.
Wait until the US Air Force is strafing your quiet American street, and it will be too late to do anything about it.

But I am equally certain that, for instance,there was no justification in bombing Afghanistan that is in any way related to the destruction of the World Trade Center.

Like Ben Franklin said, anyone who exchanges liberty for security deserves neither.
Obviously you are happy with how things are, and prefer to ignore what's going on around you... I made the point that you are ignoring and therefore ignorant and you call me a fucking retard.
I don't hide behind fake names on the internet, Telephone Toughguy. Why do you?

I think I may actually be the only Glenn in the world, Glenn is my full legal name, and my address and phone number as well as my biography may be pretty easily found with only a little bit of looking.
I certainly do not use internet anonymity as an excuse for boorish behavior. I am very open about who I am and what I believe.
Nothing that I have stated or opinions I have expressed are flights of fancy. If you question any specific item, I would be glad to direct you to factual sources for information...
however I don't feel obligated to try to download my entire body of knowledge into your head. I didn't have to pay anything for most of it, all it took was some effort and diligence on my part. A little skepticism can help, but there are things that even the most cynical skeptic can accept as fact, if you can get beyond the 'all of everything is an illusion, or consensual hallucination' mindset. While that may be true in many aspects, there are also hard facts which cannot be readily disputed.
You, however, do dispute, essentially, everything I say, without actually taking an opposite position or in any way arguing or debating.
That's your perogative, and entirely acceptable, however it's not wise to hold onto ignorance, and not healthy to harbor hate inside yourself, and not welcome for you to spew it out at the world anonymously.
YOUR hate harms YOU. It is entirely yours. Hate is not something that can be gotten rid of by giving it to another, you just have to let go of your attachment to it.
Hatred, and anger damage everyone, and anger and hatred are not things the outside world makes you have, they come from inside of you, and are nothing, are illusions of your own constructing and you can deconstruct your anger and hatred by just letting them go away.
Let your hatred and anger go, and it will not leave a void inside of you when they are gone.

If in fact there was any evidence that the bush administration or the jews or aliens or whatever where behind 9/11 then someone would have taken that evidence and done something about it and it would have been covered in the freedom of information act and the constitution and all those other documents we use.
I don't hate you, I don't even hate the jihadi's I have had revelations in my life that have led me to a philosphy without hate in the hopes of having less heart attacks and annoying less people. So please don't assume to know how I feel or think, based on your skeptical and biased world views. You are more than welcome to believe in any conspiracy you want, but we are under no obligation to believe it as well.
So to sum things up, I agreed with you about not shutting the site down (ridicules) and believe (as you do I think- I do not go back and read the posts) that the jihadi posts should stay up. I am proud of the fact that you have a biography, are you a writer? My anonymity is just that, my business. To me you are just cyber-glenn and that is just as anonymous to me and everyone else (no one seems to want to chime in). So that point is not valid either. I never asked for your legal name and phone number, nor do I want it. Just as I would not want my name and address on here while I am threatening terrorists with pig sex and excrement consumption.
So go on and imagine me as a hating angry IT nerd if that is what you desire. Just know, or better yet, just hear me tell you that you are wrong about me and some of your claims as well.
