In national ads and recently. If so I have not seen them.


I know he tried to use them and the pics of the rented FF and cops in a staged 9/11 seen and the public outcry in objection was thundering so we have not seen them since.

Oh, he weakened them, but not at all to the extent that they, or you, would have people believe. If they had been weakened so badly after being given two months to evacuate and set up operations elsewhere, how in the hell were they able to recruit hundreds of thousands of new members and swell their membership to over 800,000? They're in Iraq as we speak, hiding outside of mosques and churches, recruiting young boys every day.

Those ads with the fake cops and firefighters were retired ages ago, but the one with the still photo of him in the flight suit is still playing. It's on MSNBC a lot.

There's a Michael Jackson joke in there somewhere, I just know there is.

We just shook the hornet's nest and got them all nice and pissed off, and now they're even more determined to bring us down than ever before.

Again, should we have offered OBL a touchy feely hug and then sent him to sensitivity training classes

I cannot believe you all apparently think invading Afganistan and removing The "OBL could NEVER have done that and we have no clue where he is" Taliban

Seriously, what else could we do but invade Afganistan. I am all ears . . . .

No, we should've strunk while the iron was hot, smart ass, not give them a two month running start.

I'll be sure to get tickets away from the stage, so as not to pull a Mick and soak you with my bodily fluids after I erupt into laughter.

Exactly. I cannot believe we are not putting him in jail. It is our own version of Saudi Arabia's all if forgiven if you terrorists turn yourselves in before June 30 - I mean PUULLEEZZEEEEE.

But, I gotta say, if it saved lives by not invading Libya - I am not that opposed to it. I just do not think he can be trusted.

Without trying to sound facetious, it was like they were organizing a big game of Hide 'N Seek.

"Ok, Osama, you try to hide while we count to a billion! Ready?! One... two... three................"

So, you are saying you were for the war in Afganistan AND you were for it immediately and not giving them a chance to produce OBL first

You just reminded me that I have a Mick/"World Turning" question I want to post on the Rumours Forum.

One step forward and two steps back...

Sure it disrupted things, and maybe it weakened things. Hell, when I lose electricity during a thunderstorm it disrupts things! But this entire situation called for much more finesse. We alienated nearly all the countries who empathized with us after 9/11 when we invaded Iraq, including Muslim nations. We went forward with this cowboy attitude that "We don't need nobody", even when they were all screaming at us not to invade.

Al-Q wasn't in Iraq before we invaded, but they sure are now, and with a bunch more people who hate us than they had before.
