Why are you posting emotions? If you think that a sky is falling, then fine. What are your supporting facts to make that conclusion. Your post again reeks of wacko extremist fear of Arabs.
Why do you even entertain such emotions? Why do you let such emotions proclaim that the Arab world mostly hated Americans? That is what Rush Limbaugh needs all to assume so that he can promote propaganda - the hate and fear that Cheney so promotes.
A benchmark identifies many brainwashed by extremism. They believe myths that enemies are out there everywhere hating us and just waiting for oppurtunities to kill us all. Reality - enemies were few to near zero. Reality - most dangerous enemies were really us - ie Timothy McVeigh. The world was not full of hate for America as Limbaugh, Cheney, et al claim. And yet that unjustified assumption results in "That dam busted years ago - long before 9/11/2001 - I would guess." That guess is based in their wacko extremist 'hate and fear' propaganda.
Appreciate the problem that we created because so many Americans foolishly believe wacko propaganda that Arabs mostly hated Americans. It just was not true AND it becomes justificaton for so much hate and fear even of Muslim Americans.
With so much hate and fear, then extremists said Saddam had WMDs to attack America. A lie that they knew only from their feelings; not from facts. Meanwhile Saddam was doing anything he could to be an American friend without destroying his own regime. Somehow that reality got lost in all this 'Arabs hate us' propaganda. Such racist assumptions should be challenged by a long list of contrary facts.
Yesman065 - you posted your bias. You have assumed facts not in evidence - this widespread Arab hatred of America that exists before 11 September. That did not exist except where extremists such as Limbaugh were preaching outright lies and hate. Shame on you for entertaining their racism and then getting emotional again because your emotions were proven wrong by fact, after fact, after fact ...
Get over it. There are not all these people hiding everywhere waiting to kill us all. That fear is the same wacko propaganda that even justified "Mission Accomplished".
We have one enemy. When do we go after bin Laden? How can you see so much hate in the Arab world and yet not ask this damning question often. When do we go after bin Laden? Notice those who promote fear and hate of Arabs never ask that question.
Your simple comment was dripping with 'hate and fear' of Arabs.
