Georgie-boy, Fred, and other such fervent believers in 'military prowess' as the answer to all their problems:

Wait and watch.

Check out what your war-criminal leader GW Bush and his gang do to YOU when the next terrorist strike hits the US.

That is a matter of 'when' I'm afraid, not 'if'.

There is just no way your hero GW Bush (or even ten like him) or your military prowess (and even ten times your current military prowess) can prevent it, I'm afraid.

Directly after 9/11, GW Bush DID have a real opportunity to get the great majority of the worldwide Muslim community solidly behind a real war on terror. Check out the brilliantly argued article, "Avoid Osama's trap" , by Bernard Haykel, a New York University professor of Islamic studies - http://www.hinduonnet.com/thehindu/2001/09/25/stories/05252523.htm

Well, GW Bush and Gang rejected that path of wisdom and took THE ABSOLUTELY most foolish path he could possibly have chosen; but that has been his characteristic all along - witness his handling of an entirely internal matter, the tragedy of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina.

And US citizens haven't seen through him yet???

YEEW-HAW, indeed, Georgie Boy!!

I must applaud your exceptional intelligence.

Do well. Don't worry. Be happy. For as long as you can.

I realize English is not your first language, but look up the English meaning of "dictator" before you go off on any more of your paranoid, half-cocked, anti-Semitic rants.

You repeat the same lies of the MOSSAD and the “US Neo-cons”; If Saddam was as you say a dictator! How then did he run Iraq? The US and MOSSAD have used every drity trick of control they know “RAPE, TORTURE, mass KILLINGS” and still the people respect Saddam and NOT Mr. Cole WHY? Why is it YOU MR. Cole can not walk the streets of ANY Iraqi city today, NOT NORTH or SOUTH because it is not safe for you, Mr. Cole. WHY is That? I'll tell you -- Mr. Cole because you repeat the lies of the MOSSAD and the CIA. And now you have the nerve to tell me of a dictator!

When it is you that has been dictated to.

And one last thing… Mr. Cole. ANY US Citizen who allows himself to be used and comprise by the MOSSAD or their lackey’s for money is subject to "POLLARD Sanction".

I imagine that people wouldn't be anything like as mortified by Saddam's hanging had someone had a mobile phone camera recording in one of his torture chambers. Or caught a grainy fifteen seconds of Kurdish children being gassed whilst that moustachioed dickhead shot a rifle in the air from one of his marble palaces.

I disagree with the Death Penalty in almost all circumstances because of:

1) The element of doubt.

2) That a state doesn't have a right to kill an individual

In this case, doubt is not an issue. And Saddam was 'the state'. He was diposed by another.

And, please, would all my fellow, whiny, whinging, humourless English people stop moaning about America. It's almost like your masturbating in this supposed 'terror' we now all live in. Ok, so there are a bunch of dickhead muslims living in Wembley. They were there long before George Bush did anything.

Answer this question as to where your allegiances lie. Would you rather live in:

A) New York

B) San Fran

C) Baghdad

D) Khartoum

E) Los Angeles

I'd go for A. Beats the hell out of London

Who are you? Are you a little dumb shit who has no clue on history? You live in the UK? sorry for you. I am not even going to justify an answer to your ridiculous response. You blame the US, I suggest you read something, anything. The 27 member states of the European Union, like thier opinion in this World means nothing. I would suggest you actually have pride in your own country, I know this might be foreign to you, but try it. Stop trying to appease everyone and actually grow a backbone.

...sending these morons to progressive websites to bait us into playing the game THEIR way?!?

There will always be those who will drink Hitler's KoolAid. It's just part of the human condition, I suppose.

Some people LIKE being told when to wipe their behinds, which direction to wipe and how many pieces of toilet paper to use. They probably fantasize about wearing a diaper and being spanked for spilling their creamed corm with chopped asparagus all over their highchairs.

Whatever. It's someone else's job to tell these pseudo-intellectual lightweights that they're being bad for pooping in their own bed.

But I will say that Europe could have done a better job, as could the present batch of progressives in the US, of lassoing the brown-shirted troglodytes before they ever wormed their way into power.

We always need to speak truth to power; but sometimes we have to do it to the crazy, too.

He deserved to hang.

He was well hanged.

Get over it, you sniveling pantywaists!

I live in London and am terrified of the increase in the militancy of young Muslims. These pissed-off kids are everywhere. They have been given a reason to be this way and are ripe for brainwashing by older idealogues.

This is a real problem and one that did not exist before the 2003 invasion. And Europe and the rest of the world can only blame the American government.

You've got cause and effect mixed around. Remember, the worst terrorist attack in history occurred before the Iraq war. And many of the perpetrators of 9/11 as well as the attacks in London and Madrid (as well as other foiled attacks) were recruited in--not the U.S., but in Europe!

Why is this? They were attracted to radical Islam precisely because of the fecklessness of the cultures in which they lived. They were told by their surrounding societies that there was really nothing worth believing in, nothing worth dying for, and to live only to fulfill your own personal "needs" was the highest goal they could hope for. YOung men looking for meaning in life recoil at such selfish shallowness and are easy marks for recruiters for radical Islam.

One major reason the Islamo-fascists hate the West is not that our beliefs are inimical to theirs, but that more and more of us believe in nothing at all beyond self-indulgence. And they look down on us for this.

If you're a teenager in most European cities these days, you have a choice between two competing identities—a robust confident Islamic identity or a tentative post-nationalist cringingly apologetic European identity.

Radical Islam is not luring Europeans away from a solid belief system; it's providing many of them with the first real belief system they have ever had. It's filling a void for people who have nothing else to believe in or hold on to.

Note that the only two jihadists recruited out of the U.S., the guy from Marin County they captured in Afghanistan (can't remember his name) and Adam Gadahn from affluent Orange County both grew up in the U.S. equivalent of modern-day Europe--irreligious cultures that placed "personal fulfillment" as the highest good.

Get off your high horse, Europe. You fail to see the threat right under your nose, and in a betrayal of your parents and grandparents who were willing to stand up and fight tyranny, you'd rather simply surrender to it so long as they let you keep your 35-hour workweek and 6 weeks of vacation.
