Are we winning fighting the guys who actually attacked US on 9-11?

Hmmm, seems about as good as in Iraq.

Any Islamic extremist willing to commit murder in the name of his/her warped religious views is "the real enemy."

Some clueless and uninformed morons will claim that ANY radical islamic group is our enemy. These are typically bush lovers and rubes, who don't have a clue about the world outside of their own state borders.

You correctly point out that our enemy are those who attacked us, and are willing to attack US.

I don't give a fuck about muslim radicals in India, in Uzbekistan, or in Kashmir who have a beef with hindus, the Indian goverenment, or the Phillipino government. I don't give a crap about kurdish muslim terrorists who have a beef with Iran or Turkey. That's not our problem.

You and Rayboy are aware that the "Taliban" did not attack us either? They just chose to protect those that did. Remind me again how we could have just used police and diplomacy in that case?

Now the peanut gallery has spoken. I don't think anyone mentioned India, Uzbekistan or Kashmir??? I suppose the radicals that want to blow themselves up to kill our troops in Iraq have true love toward the United States homeland. Brilliant my friend, Brilliant! I bow before your supreme intellect!

The vast majority couldn't give a shit about the US. They'd just them to bugger off and mind their own business. But they can't...(shrug)..

Oh so the reason they blow themselves up is because they want the troops to leave? Damn, don't you think they could convey that in manner that doesn't leave themselves dead? That seems like an extreme manner to show someone they aren't welcome. By your logic, what I'll do is blow myself up when my mother-in-law comes over next time, maybe she'll get the point.

Don't insult my intelligence, by presuming I haven't seen tons of wingnuts wringing their hands and pissing their diapers about the global "caliphate" of muslims, and their desire to invade the United States and take over our walmarts.

You idiots need to learn how to distinguish real threats, from Fox News propaganda.

So tell us? Have you even watched Fox news? And if so how much?

No I would fight against them, your right. But I'm not going to blow myself up, to go to heaven to be with 12 young virgins either, or cut the heads off of journalists, slaughter people for cameras.....get the point? Yep, I'm sure that the terrorist from Syria feels great Iraqi national pride too.

They're all arabs and they stick together. And here's a newsflash - the arab culture is different from the Western. When are you neocon whackjobs gonna stop putting western values on ME cutlure. It don't work like that bucko!
