If (just to pick a country) the Russians invaded here, and you had the

& means to kill some of them, would it be correct for the Russians to call
you a terrorist?


I dunno... did we (the US) fly a plne into Red Square before they
invaded?



Why does that matter?

A german kid that did in 1987...

I am surprised no one has yet to post a thank you to our Canadian neighbors
for nabbing a major group of Muslim terrorists planning some pretty nasty
deeds with explosives in Canada and possibly the US.

Way to go!

I forgot to add:

Some folks will see my initial post to this thread as a troll....why, I
don't know. It was only intended to give thanks to our neighbors for a job
well done.

To head off those "why are you trolling" posts that I expect Ito appear in
this thread I ask two questions:

1. How can stopping a terrorist attack be a bad thing?

2. Why is thanking Canada for doing just that a bad thing?

I suspect the only ones questioning my post will be my usual gang of
antagonists, even though most of them have supported the war against
terrorism in the past. When considering questions 1 and 2 you have to
ask..............why?

Their agenda is obvious so ignore them but do consider my initial post in an
unbiased way. ;-)
