Of course I believe them- they will attack the US because we bombed them. If we didnt bomb them in the first place they would have never made the threat. As Ive said before, we make our own monsters.

You are living in the past. That is not the world we have.

Whatever slight you think the US did to the terrorists to make them hate cannot be undone, so what do we do now?

Maybe you are right that if the bombing didn't happen they wouldn't have threatened, however they still would have attacked without warning because they hate everything the US is about.

You cannot deny that.
 
Yeah its sad that so many people in this thread want to attack a group halfway around the world just because they practice a different religion. Talk about international intolerance. :doh

Is that why, their religion? It couldn't be the threat of killing Westerners, right? Blind.
 
Yes, but I believe an attack is now more likely. Obama let these terrorists grow like an infection, and now the earth has a fever. Obama is not the prescription.

I think if anything our war on terror has shown that when you uproot one group three more takes it's place and the group continually learn new tactics. The root problem is there's a lot of demented people in this world that are willing to die for their fairy tale.

Here in America people protest the Ten Commandments posted anywhere including private property, want Christmas trees removed because they are offensive, want any mention of God removed from songs and the Pledge of Allegiance and suspend children for praying in school. But let some Islamist radicals behead, bury alive and terrorize people and they are just practicing their religion?

They beheaded an American hostage because we bombed them. If we start bombing the protesters who are against religion in the US do you think they wont fight back?

Its the world we created thanks to our military attacks on people who didnt attack us first.

Pull back. Announce to the world that this isnt our fight and let them fight each other. Then there wont be a reason for them to attack or threaten us.

I can definitely deny that. What reason would they have to attack us if we didnt attack them first? And please dont tell me its because they hate our freedoms, Im sure they could care less about that.

If we kill enough of them they'll be too busy burying their dead to have time for anything else.

The guy has been missing for a year or so. I believe he was a pawn, held for such an opportunity. I also think there is a good chance they did not actually behead him. Unless there is a more complete video, they cut away and then showed the after picture of a surprisingly clean body in an orange tunic. Anyone who has actually butchered a 200 pound animal knows that there is a LOT of blood, and he would have been alive at the time so it would have been pumping. The last hog we cleaned, even after being heart shot and transported, absolutely washed the driveway with blood when we cut it. Blood is also very pervasive in that the head would still have leaking on to the back of the body, which was not evidenced in the picture. Beyond that, there have still been hundreds if not thousands killed in other ways from beheaded, crucified on a cross and buried alive. Beheading children is not a religion expression, it is psychopathic behavior.

Why was the WTC attacked in 1993 and 2001?

Did we attack and bomb them first?

Even when there's no single reason to be feared, you people set it up yourself.

That ISIS is so damn evil and need to be wiped it's so obvious, as well as BO failure in ME .... but picturing ISIS as a big player with balls of steel is nonsense.
You really need some balls to threat US, not to mention to attack it.
Well, Bush had balls, Putin has balls, Obama has a single ball, but ISIS is just a ***** of which the big players (good and bad) will use it as they always do.

And either Hillary or Valerie Jarrett have the other one.
 
Well America has been known to start wars on their own soil so it's probably a good chance they will .
 
Terrorist attacks conducted in the United States by foreigners are incredibly rare. I don't know why this confuses you. Major attacks ARE almost impossible. It took a lot of planning and luck and a lot of incompetence at the top in 2001 for 9/11 to happen. It was a longshot. Sometimes the longshot wins. Not often, however. Every attempt by Jihadist terrorists since then failed abysmally. None of those failures came from our fighting people abroad. They came from a chastised intelligence network that learned its lesson. And because most terrorists are actually pretty stupid.

I don't know why odds are so confusing to you guys.

I know you liberals chalk up terrorist attacks against Americans around the world as "so what"

Here is a list of "so whats" that you could care less about.

The probability these people will attack us here depends on how much this sad excuse for a President does to them. If he does no more than the half-hearted pinpricks we've seen so far, he is openly inviting them to stage attacks in the U.S. Presidents like Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy, and Reagan inspired healthy respected in potential adversaries. This weak sister inspires only contempt in them.

The US is squeaky clean by no means, pointing a finger gets three pointed back at ya.

U.S. armed forces have committed war crimes in various wars in which they have been engaged throughout history. Most — but not all — contemporary war crimes are defined by the International Criminal Court (ICC), the Geneva Conventions, and the associated laws of war under international law.[1] War crimes can be prosecuted through the War Crimes Act of 1996 in the United States, but the U.S. government does not accept the jurisdiction of the ICC over its military forces.[2] United States violations of the laws of war falling under the rubric of jus in bello are discussed in the present article, while U.S. violations of jus ad bellum, such as crimes against peace or wars of aggression under the Nuremberg Principles,[3] are not addressed here.

Well based on the voting, the propaganda emanating from Washington is working and has you guys pissing your pants. Guess americans will never learn.

Tell me again what war crimes have been prosecuted against any member of the US.

And then tell me what war crimes have been waged against those that committed 9-11 or all the other attacks on the US worldwide. You can refer to this list of attacks.

We've been meddling in the middle east for decades, bro. Our unconditional support for Isreal and the presence of our troops in Saudi Arabia were the causes of Al Qeda's hostility against us.

So your point about not bombing ISIS is mute. They will use some excuse to attack, so what really is your point?

ISIS is beheading people in many other countries that have nothing to do with us. The fact is you are defending the indefensible. We are going to go back in, get used to it.

If you're so gung ho about it, why aren't you signing up and pledging to pay more taxes to fund it?

ISIS could attack us....just like Russia could nuke us.
 
Yes, but I believe an attack is now more likely. Obama let these terrorists grow like an infection, and now the earth has a fever. Obama is not the prescription.

Predictable.

Install fear (this time through terrorism), blame it on Democrats, and move in with the cure of Republicans. Wanted to let you know that this is predictable even for someone not living in USA.
