Greetings to all...
Frankly, I would like to start this off by saying that I am appalled by what I have been reading from some of the people on this forum. Innocent people are repeatedly, day in a day out in different places around the world, being slaughtered in horrendous ways by terrorists claiming to act in the name of God. We see it happen over and over again. We can see the videos of fierce and fiery rhetoric being spewed out by fanatical religious leaders and absorbed to the core by brainwashed followers. And what you choose to focus on are these grandiose conspiracy theories, utilizing evidence from biased sources and seeming to try and transform this reality of terrorism into a domestic political game. Interesting to learn that this 'grand vizier' whose opinion you have trumped up as proof of your silly conspiracies was publicly fired and humiliated by the same government that he criticizes.
Whatever lies that you think are being disseminated by our own democratically elected leaders, they are ultimately irrelevant in the face of the reality of scores of scorched suicide bomb victims stretching from NYC, England, Spain, Turkey, Egypt, Iraq, Israel, India, Bali, Jakarta, Jordan, and wherever else these brainwashed 'holy warriors' decide to bring their Jihad.
It seems to me that what we have here on this forum are some people that are either in a deep state of denial over the reality of this era, or otherwise completely devoid of any sense of compassion.
The most recent comments come from England, where a little over a year ago 50 people were slaughtered in the horrendous London bombings. And also India, where not much more than a month ago 200 people were "wiped off the face of the map" (I quote these words, albeit I am using them in a different context than they were originally used, but they were coined by no less than the grand supporter of all these acts, and if you dont know who I am referring to by quoting his words, then it is clearly a waste of time writing this anyway as you are probably getting your news from moveon.org or something of the like).
So all I would say is please find a little compassion in your hearts, and realize that when you hear about the next suicide bombing in a restaurant or on a bus, those are actually people there, and as you type away conspiracy theories on your computers they are suffering in physical agony. And the emotional suffering of their families is probably just as painful.
All I can really say is that it is very depressing to hear seemingly intelligent individuals diminish the suffering of terrorist victims worldwide into some sort of domestic political issue. What bothers me most is that you are verbally striking out at those who aim to protect you, and not even a mention about those who would have been just as happy had you been in the fiery blaze of their creation. Maybe if one of these victims would happen to be your own brother, or neighbor, then you would take it a little more seriously and see the situation for what it is. And as a disclaimer, I do not personally know anyone who was affected by any of these terrorist acts.
Whether this plot was true or not true matters not. What matters is that suicide bombs are real, and if our government is trying to scare us into believing that they still exist, that is fine with me. Because they do exist.
And if this recent 'uncovered plot' was not a legitimate attempt to avert a potential disaster, it was at least an effort to cure this mind-boggling complacency that is being perfectly exhibited by some of those on this forum in the face of an enemy that believes he (or she) will attain paradise over the burnt corpse of, god forbid, you or I.
OM MANI PADME HUM
