    Oh so since Sarah is a woman she should be treated differently than a man in the same position?

    Dude, refer to my post above. I started this thread to bash Al Qaida, not Sarah Palin or Obama. Let's stick to the topic, shall we?

    The thread title is kind of misleading, since the terrorists were dominitely from Saudi Arabia and were Islamic extremists, not Muslim.

    However, I can see how they see this as a victory. A terrorist is a person that is supposed to perform acts that instill fear, panic, hysteria and in extreme causes a severe economic decline.

    They had us in fear for awhile after 9/11, but we overcame that. They have us in a severe economic crisis, and we can overcome this.

    So in a way they did win as for their job of being a terrorist, but what hurts us only makes us stronger.

    Is it only me or your statement just seems contradictory?

    Islamic extremists = Muslims

    Peace,

    I have yet to hear anyone state the economic problems were caused by terrorists. I've heard plenty about housing, sub-prime mortgages, lending practices, references to bills passed by presidents going back to at least Carter, Fannie and Freddie, etc., etc., ad nauseum. Nothing about terrorists though.

    Probably a coverup by the government to make the people think that we ourselves did this, and not a group of terrorists.

    A little insight from Wikipedia on Terrorism:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrorist#Types_of_terrorism

    Types of terrorism

    In the spring of 1975, the Law Enforcement Assistant Administration in the United States formed the National Advisory Committee on Criminal Justice Standards and Goals. One of the five volumes that the committee was entitled Disorders and Terrorism, produced by the Task Force on Disorders and Terrorism under the direction H.H.A. Cooper, Director of the Task Force staff.[41] The Task Force classified terrorism into six categories.

    * Civil Disorders – A form of collective violence interfering with the peace, security, and normal functioning of the community.
    * Political Terrorism – Violent criminal behaviour designed primarily to generate fear in the community, or substantial segment of it, for political purposes.
    * Non-Political Terrorism – Terrorism that is not aimed at political purposes but which exhibits “conscious design to create and maintain high degree of fear for coercive purposes, but the end is individual or collective gain rather than the achievement of a political objective.”
    * Quasi-Terrorism – The activities incidental to the commission of crimes of violence that are similar in form and method to genuine terrorism but which nevertheless lack its essential ingredient. It is not the main purpose of the quasi-terrorists to induce terror in the immediate victim as in the case of genuine terrorism, but the quasi-terrorist uses the modalities and techniques of the genuine terrorist and produces similar consequences and reaction. For example, the fleeing felon who takes hostages is a quasi-terrorist, whose methods are similar to those of the genuine terrorist but whose purposes are quite different.
    * Limited Political Terrorism – Genuine political terrorism is characterized by a revolutionary approach; limited political terrorism refers to “acts of terrorism which are committed for ideological or political motives but which are not part of a concerted campaign to capture control of the State.
    * Official or State Terrorism –"referring to nations whose rule is based upon fear and oppression that reach similar to terrorism or such proportions.” It may also be referred to as Structural Terrorism defined broadly as terrorist acts carried out by governments in pursuit of political objectives, often as part of their foreign policy.

    In an analysis prepared for U.S. Intelligence[42] four typologies are mentioned.

    * Nationalist-Separatist
    * Religious Fundamentalist
    * New Religious
    * Social Revolutionary


    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrorist#Tactics

    Terrorism is a form of asymmetric warfare, and is more common when direct conventional warfare either cannot be (due to differentials in available forces) or is not being used to resolve the underlying conflict.

    The context in which terrorist tactics are used is often a large-scale, unresolved political conflict. The type of conflict varies widely; historical examples include:

    * Secession of a territory to form a new sovereign state
    * Dominance of territory or resources by various ethnic groups
    * Imposition of a particular form of government
    * Economic deprivation of a population
    * Opposition to a domestic government or occupying army

    Terrorist attacks are often targeted to maximize fear and publicity. They usually use explosives or poison, but there is also concern about terrorist attacks using weapons of mass destruction. Terrorist organizations usually methodically plan attacks in advance, and may train participants, plant "undercover" agents, and raise money from supporters or through organized crime. Communication may occur through modern telecommunications, or through old-fashioned methods such as couriers.

    Americans way too much thinks about everything bad should be include muslims, al qaida, bin laden (which I assume invention of pentagon as well as this qaida). This means search for "outside enemy". Good tactic for government to manipulate people.

    I don't understand why you would like to expose leader's sexual orientation?

    On a side note. Holding hands and kissing on the cheeks is something common in Middle Eastern and some Asian cultures.

    I bet that Bush's advisers told him that. Well he did try his best.

    Peace,

    This is a common courtesy in the Middle East, to kiss someone on their cheek when you meet them and to hold hands.

    Middle Eastern people enjoy closeness and friendship, hence why the holding of the hands.

    There is nothing homosexual about this. It's part of the their culture.

    You were thinking homosexual too. You questioned his sexuality, therefore you were thinking homosexual.

    Bush isn't an idiot, he respected the cultures traditions just as their leaders respect ours.
