Jordanian attack more deadly than 9/11 foiled.

Holy shit dude. Thats some hardcore stuff, i'm glad that was stopped.
No one deserves to die like that.
 
This has been going on for decades, we just had the right leaders when 9/11 happened that they said no more. God forbid Al Gore had been in office when 9/11 happened. :(
 
71 chemicals......

wow... who the hell knows what that could have done.....

yeah, god forbid we would have actually spent full resources on tracking down and eliminating al-qaeda instead of diverting our attention to little bush's personal crusade he received from jesus. don't want to hijack your thread, but you brought it up :E

:monkee:

Yes, did.

What makes you think Al Gore would have done any such thing?
And as for the war, well, we should've dedicated more time al-queda. But remember, it was your beloved UN that unanimously agreed to take Saddam out. Now, of course they turned around and changed their minds and it became the Coalition's war. As for divine messages, you leave Jesus outta this. :)
 
but jesus is talking to me :( hey, if jesus is good enough for my president to use in political manuevering, He's good enough for me :thumbs:

anyway, what makes you think gore wouldn't have? it's wrote speculation, and an irrelevant and irresponsible comment to make, on either side. i'd like to think you're beyond that GV..

Fair enough. Nonetheless, you're side of the fence has made far worse and out-of-place comments than mine. Why is it that people can say Bush looks like a monkey out of nowhere, but I can't say I don't think Gore would've handled the situation as well(God forbid Al Gore would've been in office when 9/11 happened)? As far as thinking I'm beyond anything above scum to you seems out of place. Any insult hurled at me by someone who relates to your opinion is backed up or ignored by you. However, the slightest comment or opinion I state is throw down, analyzed, and rebuked. I never tell people how to think, or that they're bad people. I tell them that identifying with civilian attacking terrorists is disgusting, but I never tell them they're disgusting, or anything like a lot of the comments I've received from 'your side' as it were. I'd like to think we're all friends who simply have different views, but over time I've grown out of that hope.

just to indulge this absurd comparison.. well, for one thing you can look at the man's face, and come to your own conclusions. who knows what gore would have done. one is pure speculation, one is opinion. whether you agree or not, at least bush's appearance is testable.

not sure what point you are trying to make with that rambling (no offense, but rambling it was). who made the statement? you did. i'm not attacking you, i'm attacking what i percieved to be an irresonsible statement. to which i believe you responded "fair enough". as for all of this "my side" business.. i don't know what threads you are refering to specifically. i'm addressing you in this thread because it was your comment in this thread that i was addressing..? i mean, no one else made a similar statement, nor is anyone attacking you in here, that i've noticed. regardless, it's not my duty to defend you. you made an out-of-place and poorly conceived remark, and i called you on it. you've been around long enough to know that i do that sort of thing to any forumite.

edit: btw, OT, it is a very good thing they stopped this attack, i hope to learn more about what exactly was planned and how it was foiled. i wonder what the consequences to jordanian-american and arab-american polictics would have been had the plot been carried out..
 
I don't mind you calling me on it, that's where the Fair enough was directed to. I was simply talking about the fact of sly text tactics being used. (I'll send the rest of this to you by PM. Open forum isn't the place to settle this.)

It has been every since man came into the picture.
 
Eventually something of this magnitude will happen, no matter how hard anyone tries something will happen. I know im being a complete pessimist about it but it really does seem like everything is just building up to a massive attack like that.

Meh. It's all the godddamn religious zealots that can't get it out of their thick skulls that not everyone in the world is going to believe as they do. It's also some of the governments that are strongly influenced by a nations religious majority(ie:iraq...) I'm not against religion, however I believe that religion should be kept out of all the major government channels. For instance, I don't care if they keep the words "In God we trust" on US dollars or "One nation under God" in the pledge. I'm ok with that kind of stuff. The thing that irk me is....... well, just imagine if Mormons or Jehovas Witnesses ruled the country....bleh.

Why the heck whould they attack Jordan?
Click to expand...

The targets were the US Embassy and the Prime Minister's headquarters.
The Jordanian Govt. is working with us in the war on terror.
 
They can't target anything in the U.S., Britain, Canada, or most other commonwealth nations who are with the war on terror because they have the resources to properly prevent most terrorist threats from becomming a problem. So they target embassies and other countries that don't have the resources to properly defend themselves. Like Jordan.
 
I wonder what the USA is supposed to do. If they do try to remove any terrorist organization/financial-supporters-of-terrorists ,they will be berated by most of the world for being aggressors,for trying to spread American influence or for putting lives in danger. If they sit back they risk the threat of terrorist attacks anywhere in the world not to mention that heightened security measures mean people will start screaming that they are losing their rights and that they are being oppressed.
 
also, doesn't al-qaeda's wahhabist vision of hold monachies in conflict with true islam or something? jordan is a monarchy..

They hold alot of things as being against "true Ismam" so it wouldn't be surprising. Although right now they have bigger fish to fry, such as getting rid of allies to the war on terror which I think was their main goal here.
 
I'm glad they stopped it.

Buw WTH, if they wanna kill each others, who are we to stop them?

but cant you put some entertainment into this thread of death with your guys interesting conversations, always love reading them

could be something like the verbal rollercoaster of almost 80,000 dead
 
no, but they said they'd stopped it "within days" of the planned attack.
 
Makes you wonder what they have in store for us here in America, or the Brits....
Hopefully we will get lucky aswell and stop them.
But if we don't?
 
You cant stop every attack, it going to happen one day or another, the question is when? The best thing the governments can do is to avoid mass civilian casualties, like by educating the public on what to do if they hear an explosion or something like that... Car bombs that sort of thing, you cant really stop it from happening can you?
 
Not random attacks, you cant tell which car is going to randomly blow up.
 
Yeah mate, but what if they knew there was a plan to carbomb, and they found out, and knew what street, so, then they could search the cars.
