By no means should you ever refer to them as extremists, THEY ARE MURDERERS! Some people would have you believe that the United States is doing a great injustice in the world today, maybe at times, but what is the ratio of good to bad?

The title you ask? Try to think back to September of 2004 in a Russian town called Beslan. The same people that want you to cry injustice, will never refer to the Beslan school hostage crisis or Beslan Massacre of September 2004 when Islamic militants took more than 1,100 school children hostage for the cause of secession from the Russian Federation (I guess that was the fault of the United States as well). Ultimately during the three-day crisis 334 people were killed including 186 children, hundreds more were wounded or missing.

What a Nobel cause it must have been to torture and kill 186 children for, right? Wrong! In the end the Islamic murderers brought no sympathy to their cause, and only angered the watching world. Was this some new tactic? NO, this is something that has been going on for hundreds of years. It is not something that was invented to combat the United states or the Coalition Forces. No, it is a method used by cowards to stifle the determination and will to succeed at a just cause.

They will tell you, the only reason they went to war was for the oil. No different then when the French fought along side the Colonists when they declared independence from the Crown. France wanted to secure their position with the Americans so that they could establish trade with them. So there is nothing new today that is being done (except for on a much larger scale) than was being done hundreds and thousands of years ago. People would try to enlighten you to the evil deeds of the capitalist pigs of the U.S., whose only motivation is greed for what they don't have and more of it. What they won't tell you is that they are the first in line to buy products made by the sweat of someone else's brow with money they wouldn't make in most other countries, and soak up the sun in a FREE COUNTRY and voice their opposition to the direction we are headed, all being made possible by your government that seeks to preserve the way of life that we have all become accustomed to. They won't however live by their own preaching and abandon their way of life that they say is so despicable to live a life in poverty or political turmoil with no rights, all the while preaching to those of us who call ourselves Patriots, to drop what we are doing and pick up a weapon to fight in the war that we support and for the way of life we enjoy if we believe in it so much. Maybe I'm just stupid, but isn't that hypocrisy?

Is there something that can be done differently? Of course there is! Is it possible to change? Yes! There are numerous obstacles to hurdle, everyone has to come to the table and check their guns at the door though, and in my recollection not everyone is easily parted from their guns, Especially when some want it their way or the highway. It seems that there will always be that threat of chaos which has everybody trigger happy.

I have found it best for ME, to support our government and our Troops in that my interests are being looked after by them.
