Glenn Beck: "Bring troops home, we're gonna have enough trouble here."

[bucs90]

I like the idea of bringing the troops home, bring them home from Iraq/Afghanistan/Germany/Japan/Vietnam/South Korea/South America etc etc etc.

Bring them home in order to use them against fellow americans? God I hope that's not the message he's trying to spread.................

As an atheist though I'm always apprehensive about that bigot.

That is exactly what Beck means.

Beck has a shakey grasp on reality and partiotism.


He sure makes alot of money though

Did you listen to the show? (No.)

Have you heard any of his shows where he points and warns about times in history throughout the world where governments have used the military against it's own people? (No.)

Then you don't know what you are talking about.

 

[Truthmatters]

Glen Beck contradicts himself all the time.

 

[Vanquish]

Anyone who says stupid shit like "the left always..." or "conservatives always..." is retarded and the rest of their sentence doesn't bear listening to anyway.

Glen Beck contradicts himself all the time.

Funny. I watch him from time to time. Never saw that happen.
Can you cite an example?

 

[Truthmatters]

But I think he's right. The left is gonna get violent, right here at home. Our police and national guard can handle it just fine. But our troops should be home to care for their families through it all.

Why do you think the left is going to get violent?

Besides, F**K the Middle East. We did everything we could for that craphole. Screw 'em. Pull back. Keep enough of a presence to bomb Iran if necessary. Screw picking up the pieces of the places we bomb.

This seems a bit of a contradiction. Yes, **** the middle east. Bring the troops home immediately. Stop destruction and nation building. Quit being Israel's *****. I agree with all that. But, then you want to bomb Iran?

Why do I think the left is going to get violent? Um....because I pay attention to history. The left always drifts to violence when they don't get their way or to crush dissent. China, North Korea, the USSR, Cuba, Venezuela, Vietnam, Burma, the National Socialist Party of Germany.........all got horribly violent to crush dissent. And when the left wing government does not use violence, it's spoiled left wing citizens have become violent with "other peoples money" runs out......like the riots in Greece, Italy, France, Spain, England, where nanny state citizens are pissed that their entitlements are running out.

And of course, we've seen the left wing unions get violent here already. It's on video. Undeniable. SEIU. Common left wing individuals. Several incidents. Violent left wing environmental groups, such as the left wing group ELF that is responsible for more terror attacks on US soil annually than any other group.

So, history and video show us what the left does when they don't get their way, or when they are in charge and others dissent. They get violent.

Can you tell us why the video shows the right wing guy being pulled off the union guy whos on the ground then?

How did this case turn out in court?

The "Hebrews" is an unpreferred term by the Jewsih population.

As a Jew, I support Israel.

As a level headed individual who does not allow my religion to cloud decision making...I just dont get it. The Palestinians were there way before Israel was established.

Yes, their tactics were undesirable....but I will tell you one thing for sure....If a group of people took over my land...and our coninued pleas for international assistance were ignored....I very well may resort to tactics I currently find deplorable.

Fair enough.

As a Jew, what do you think about groups like Neturei Karta?

Neturei Karta - Orthodox Jews United Against Zionism

Wow. I did not know they exosted. Thanks for ther link.
My thoughts on them...off the cuff and based only on the little I know about them...
They have a belief and they are entitled to it...and as I stated, not far off from how I see it....

For a religion to have only one way of thinking as it pertains to issues is counterproductive. Debate amongst like minded individuals is healthy...otherwise we tend to become robots.

Please...you made a very assertive statement.

I believe it was intended as sarcasm. Beck knows that it is against the law to use the military against American citizens

Everyone knows the government can't use the military as some kind of police.

I imagine if shit got insanely out of hand, they would. but if it's a bunch of rioting ass holes, I kinda doubt it.

As an atheist though I'm always apprehensive about that bigot.

Why do you call him a bigot? Like I said, I'm 50/50 on Beck. I love his historical content. But I don't necessarily agree with his future outlooks.

But anyone who has watched his shows more than a few weeks will know he's anything but a bigot. In fact, he did more to show African Americans in a good light than any other program I've ever seen. I was shocked at how much great AF history our schools have buried for whatever reason, and didn't realize it until Beck showed it.

I think he said it mostly just in a way that we are burning too much money, and getting too little in return, overseas. I agree. We're no longer needed in Germany. Korea maybe. Iraq? Afghanistan? Not on the ground, but we need the ability to hit Iran if necessary.

Otherwise bring them home. A much bigger threat to our safety is the open Southern border. Use them to secure that border the way they did the N/S Korean border. Much better use of tax money if we did that.

But Beck is anything but a bigot. A bit crazy at times. But not a bigot.

I used to listen to his radio show everyday until I learned he was anti-atheist and a secret President Bush lover. I used to be so happy when he was open minded about Bush and would bash him the same way he did Democrats, then when he met Bush in person he became a gruveling jester and devoted his entire next show to how great of a man Bush is and how he always followed his principles in office.

I'll never forget that about Beck.

TM....you need to stop watching certain shows. You are starting to lose site of what is sarcasm and satire and starting to take things as fact.

FYI...I didnt think you could back up your statement.

Thats why I asked you to.

I always attribute a lot of credibility to a former drunk who never went to college, and who's schtick is to play history professor with a chalk board.


Some people might call it a campy yet brilliant marketing niche on his part.

I call it highly educational and intellectual!

Glenn Beck just said on his radio show we should start bringing troops home from the Middle East. Said we're gonna "have enough trouble here" and that the troops should be home with families and ready to take care of our country.

I'm about 50/50 with Beck, agree with some, disagree with some.

But I think he's right. The left is gonna get violent, right here at home. Our police and national guard can handle it just fine. But our troops should be home to care for their families through it all. Besides, F**K the Middle East. We did everything we could for that craphole. Screw 'em. Pull back. Keep enough of a presence to bomb Iran if necessary. Screw picking up the pieces of the places we bomb.

Guess Beck is a left winger now since he's saying bring the troops home.

We'll hold off on that for now. For the time being he's merely a cut-n-runner!!!

What is he cutting and running from? Saddam is out of power. The Taliban is currently out of power.

Seems like both military objectives were completed.

Im rather inclined to do the same at this point. I dont see how we benefit from remaining in either conflict at this point. we did what we were planning to do.

 

[kwc57]

If we need to have troops anywhere it is Israel to help defend them from the EVIL Satan worshipers.

Your name contradicts your philosophy.

I have always supported Israel. The Bible says God will judge the Nations on how they treat Israel. One more point THE PALESTINIANS HAVE NO RIGHT TO ANY PART OF ISRAEL!

So, it's American first right after Isreal because of your religious beliefs?

The only reason we have to deal with the middle east is because our energy policy at home is s screwed up.

Violence isnt just a left wing issue. But sooner or later we will see whats going on elsewhere in the world here. Madison is just a small taste. Thankfully, despite the calls for violence on the left there hasnt been much yet.

This is why I am in favor of drilling in the United States. So we arent shipping money and troops to the middle east all the time. We need to fix our problems here now.

America is not owned by the bible.

Do you put religion first or country first?

The only way to put our country first is to put God first.

 

[Avatar4321]

he saying they will be needed here in the US

They will be. Dark times are coming. There are people trying to overthrow our freedom. This is reality. They hope to seize power through chaos. They hope to intimidate people through mobs and fear.

 

[Avatar4321]

Peaceful protests were part of the founders plan for this country.

How sad that the right seems so willing to call out the troops to scare the people unless they are tea party members.

Stop advocating violence and you wouldnt have a problem.
