I'll vote Republican if it will make these terrorists pay. Put an end to popups!

Reflecting on the beheading....

I'll have to bite my tounge on Bush's domestic policy. And yes he has screwed up in Iraq. But is Kerry going to be as effective in dealing with Terrorists? This concerns me quite a bit. Anyone convince me that Kerry can/will do Justice to these fiends?

Next thing Al Qaeda will do is try to behead or set fire to a child. These monsters must be stopped.

These people are not even people, they are demons in the literal sense.

I'm not happy how ineffective Bush has been so far in dealing with the terrorists (Osama is still at large), but I'm afraid that Kerry might do an even worse job. His live and let live policy will lead to horrible things, that Bush has made viable.

Well, I'm pretty sure Kerry won't invade nations that have nothing to do with the war on terror, which might help some

Kerry has the spinal cord of jellow. He will say one thing one week, then the next thing another. Kerry would be very ineffective fighting terror, while Bush is effective with dealing with terrorists. Come thorn, don't bullshit me. Can US troops be in every square mile of Afghanistan looking Bin Laden (who probably is in the tribal regions in Pakistan now)?

It is clear that Iraq has nothing to do with Al-Qaeda or attacks on Americans. It is especially clear given that we are discussing an attack on an American, by Al-Qaeda, in Iraq.

They don't even know if Bin Laden is there and you can't carpet bomb it when there is a tunnel of networks leftover from the fighting with the soviets, that won't be hit.

Sadaam era Iraq had no connections to AQ. The Jordan chemical weapon WMD foiled plot with AQ trained members in Iraq is proof positive.

Well, my humanist education says this isn't the right thing to do. OTOH it could be fun to watch all those pilgrims on the way to Mecca when they realize their holy place has just been flattened.

Honestly, we have to ask ourselves whether it's worth going after the terrorists. So far we've just pissed more people off, which means more terrorists. Think it would discourage them a lot more if we just foiled their attacks and didn't give them any propaganda victories.

I strongly disagree -- when we're attacked, it's not enough usually to just fend the attacks off. Go after their own territory and infrastructure to decrease chances of future attacks.

But that's what they feed on. Until we can either destroy them with NO collateral damage, and/or get our own propaganda machine in the Arab world, it's pointless.

These aren't countries, these are organizations that have little trouble hiding among innocent civilians who then get hurt and pissed off. This just gives them more support.

And Bush has been effective???

Somebody needs to explain to me how much safer/more secure under Bush we really are, either here or worldwide. Iraq's been a boon for terrorist recruitment, and the number of attacks worldwide has intensified. If that's effective.....
