Well, thanks to Bush, the world is now a safer place with Saddam and the Taliban out of power. Why worry when we're safe? The Boyfriend Pillow is where it's at.
Does Bush really have anything to do with Russia and the Chechens? That conflict long preceded his term in office. As far as that conflict goes, in this case and what with that website taking responsibility, I guess I must come to the conclusion that it was an act of terrorism on a Chechen group's part. Normally I would discount it, since if a Russian had a an auto accident, they'd contrive some way to blame it on a Chechen, or an American or someone who isn't themselves. That's sort of the Russian creed since the collapse of communism.Cerebral Palsy said:
At any rate, the best thing would probably be for Russia to simply grant Chechnya its independence. But I suppose that wouldn't keep the small group of all the world must be Muslim nuts inside Chechnya (seperate from the independence group) from continuing terrorist attacks. But at least it would keep Russia from stupidly sending its soliders to die and killing Chechen civilians.

Uh, you do realize that the Chechen's are Muslim extremists who (unlike Saddam Hussein) actually have had ties to Al Qaeda? So I think criticising Bush in this situation, where he has taken focus away from Al Qaeda and put it on Iraq, is valid. Although, I guess you could make the argument that at least Bush has put most of the terrorists in the same place ....

are you kidding me the Chechen terrorism situation is between them and russia like Kurdish freedom fighters against Iran, whether 9/11 or the war in iraq happened or not they would still have their problems with russia.

No shit, so what did going into Iraq accomplish? Besides the goal of killing our troops for no valid reason, and oil. Obviously Bush has made the world a safer place. He has said so himself.

Yeah, I see where you're coming from. There was like a billion terrorist attacks on U.S. soil before 9/11. You know, there was the world trade center bombing that killed 6 people, and then you know... Stuff. Yeah, lots of stuff! And Airport, border security etc are just as piss poor as ever.
Bush didn't do shit to prevent 9/11, and then acts like our fucking godsend afterwards. Go Bush!!!!
Not that I believe our intelligence community has not made strides since 9-11-01. It has. But it hasn't even been 3 years yet. The last act of terrorism (in US) was certainly more than three years earlier.Link648099 said:
Laughing at the idea that we are still in danger is a little silly imo.
Link648099 said:
*Looks at Link, then looks at history of terrorist attacks on US soil by mid-east terrorist groups pre-9/11. Sees exactly 1.*
You're not the only one to play that game. there is zero evidence that Bush has done shit to stop terrorism, while there's a very large amount of second-hand evidence that shows he's only encouraging it at abroad.

There was a guy on MSNBC talking about it a day after those 2 Russian plane crashes.
