I appreciate the warning label, but suggest that this thread be locked before the food fight starts.

I find it to be very unpolitical but terribly offensive especially to those of us who are not christian. As far as the views on muslims go. I suggest that some reading of true history and not just way out right wing propaganda. The british considered we americans as terrorists and they also believed that so were the Irish. One man's freedom fighter is another man's terrorist.
 
I do heartily belive thAt anyone who had anything to do with 9/11 be searched out no matter if if the trail goes right to some royal allies of the US. Also many of the people around President Reagan were against our attack on Iraq, for precisely the reasons that we see now. As Colin Powell ( who I wish would run for president ) said " pottery barn rules" you break it you fix it. 
 
I have the want to add much more but this will get locked and everyone is entitled to their opinions.

How often do we need to repeat this [8|]

No politics, that's what the Steakhouse is for.
