Amman, Jordan - Suicide bombers attacked three hotels frequented by Westerners in the Jordanian capital Wednesday night, and at least 18 people were killed and 120 wounded, police said. Maj. Bashir al-Da'aja said officials believe all three blasts were carried out by suicide bombers. The explosions indicated the involvement of al-Qaida, which has launched coordinated attacks on high-profile, Western targets in the past, a police official said
I was sitting in the breakroom when i saw this. Very sick people in the world, very sick indeed.

Who else would it be? Hey, lets go blow ourselves up and go to heaven to meet 7 virgins at the gate... who came up with their religion again? a saint or some drunk guy who saw a light? [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]
But i read somewhere where Condelizza Rice has made a list of who the U.S. is keeping their sights on for involvement with terrorism, and a new addition to the list is Saudi Arabia, which has been a longtime ally to the U.S.
The Saudis have never been an ally of the US, the only reason we got them to let base there in DS1 was the fact they were next and when we didn't leave on time, some of them (read Bin Lauden family) got a little ill. They love our money. Our oil companies have danced with the devil for a long time, wonder if it has anything to do with todays events? The ones in the middle East that were not terrorists before , will be after the smearing of this "war" and our extended stay to run the country.
Spudsmac is right...the Saudi's have always hated us Gringos...they used us and we used them, simple as that. The leaders of S.A. have long been maligned and criticized by the citizens of their own country for dealing with the dirty blue eyed devils from the west.
I know... and i agree with you 100%, our biggest mistake in my honest opinion was trying to get revenge right after 9/11, within a few weeks we were at a full scale presidential war in afghanistan when there should've been more time used to plan out our counter attack on bin laden. But like in the other post on this situation, i said we should just quarantine the middle eastern countries that arent our allies, some would turn against us to the point to where the middle east would all be against us. This quarantine would stop all things coming in and out of the countries therefore stopping any form of trade making the citizens of the country want to change that and overthrow their own country. There is that chance which is a really probably chance that the countries would rise in revolk against the U.S. but if the quarantine holds, the countries more than likely will fall to themselves.
I say we buy all their reserves and such and then BAMMMMMMMMMM!

Freedom isn't Free
The Star-Spangled Banner
-----Francis Scott Key, 1814
O thus be it ever when free-men shall stand
Between their lov'd home and the war's desolation;
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
Praise the Pow'r that hath made and preserv'd us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto;"In God is our trust!"
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
no one doubts we have had lots of lives lost in war.....
that is no excuse for more
how about we show the advances in killing and protection before we start comparing numbers.
anyone see the special on the guns and ammo, new gun should be available soon one that can shoot a million bullets a minute.
