20 years?

LOL!

The "war on terror" is an excellent tool for the state to use in stripping individuals of their liberty while the idiots simply smile and go along with it.

20 years? No way it will go away that soon. These bastards will keep "the war on terror" alive as long as possible.

 

[jbombelli]

20 years? LOL. This war is not ever going to end.

1984 anyone?.......anyone?

Heck, the "War on Drugs" has been going on for 40+/- years, with no end in sight. It is a useful tool for increased taxation and legislation.

The "War on Terror" is no different, and I would expect our government to milk it for as long as possible.

 

[gdunn]

I wonder if they said the same things about the war on drugs 20 years ago.

 

[armedhoosier451]

20 years seems awfully short. My guess is there will always be some sort of "terror" going on somewhere in the world that our gov feels the need to sniff around in. We are the world police you know..

 

[rambone]

We have always been at war with Eastasia.

The only war going on is the war on the liberties of the American citizen.

That war will continue as long as the American citizen continues to tolerate it.

I gave a speech in class today against the war on terror. A shame I didn't find this before hand could have used it.

Yeah but the war on poverty has it beat.

Pssst, don't tell anybody, but we aren't really in the war on terror, the war on poverty, or the war on drugs, to win.

What is the tenth century Alex... Holy Wars for a thousand please.

You beat me to this. My thoughts as soon as I saw the thread. Once they get something funded it will only escalate.....never end.

That's what we get from a government that declares war on a tactic. I heard we're finally close to winning the war on U-boat attacks we started back in WWII.

They were at war with us long before we accepted that fact. Remember the WTC 1 bombing, USS Cole, etc. It will be going on much longer than another 20 years, unless the world ends before that.

 

[rambone]

There have always been nutjobs, and there will always be nutjobs. We cannot stay in a perpetual state of war to try and avoid this.

Incorrect comrade!

If I were you I would not be saying what you said out loud. Thought crime you have committed and the ministry of LOVE will want to have a word with you.

You just had a false memory comrade that is all. You need to learn to suppress those memories.

I think it goes back much further than the 1990's, but as to whom threw the first stone .... Would it be our involvement in making Israel exist?

That certainly seems to be one of their main excuses. But if we are going back, how about the Barbary Pirates. They were throwing stones at us just as we were being founded and Israel didn't exist. They saw it as their right since we are all kaffir.

Try again. The six original frigates of the United States Navy were ordered to fight Moslems a century and a half before the establishment of the modern state of Israel. Either your theory is faulty or the Moslems have some incredibly gifted prophets.
