"in a wierd, twisted way I'm glad Bush won re-election. I know the general mood around here is gonna be "the country's going to hell", but look at it this way: the majority of the country is obviously blinded by a religious text that's been editted, revised and translated for thousands of years. It's going to take something really big and really terrible to wake people up from their little world. With Bush in office, it's only a matter of time."

Agreed. It will be pretty bad, though. Something big and terrible is definitely coming. What nobody understands (or at least the morons who elected Bush) is that many of the rank and file terrorists--not the leaders, but the ones who do the fighting and dieing-- are motivated, not by politics or religion, but out of a simple need for revenge. Their friends or family members lost their lives as a result of American foreign policy, and one way or another they're going to get even. It was the same way in the Philippines. The NPA leadership was Marxist, but the fighters were farmers and fishermen who weren't the least bit interested in Karl Marx. They wanted to get even.
When you kill people there will be consequences. America has been killing people directly and indirectly throughout the Middle East for decades. The Shaw of Iran's U.S. supported Savak tortured and killed tens of thousands. Over the last fourteen years America has been responsible for the deaths of over a hundred thousand Iraqi civilians, nearly half of them children.
Something terrible is definitely coming.
