Excuse me whoever said opposing abuse and/or enforcing your rights as a human being is terrorism? Oh that's right, government officials that believe opposing abuse is a sign of disloyalty. Domestic abusers believe that "abuse is a form of leadership" when in fact it is a learning disability. US government lacks leadership ability.
There is no sense listening to this government when it is known, abusers can't lead. These men in government THINK they are some kind of hero running around the world declaring themselves as protectors. Protectors? Abusers protect no one. What abuse does is adds fuel for narcissist. Narcissist then get off on their power tripping "high".
I am sick and tired of the US government claiming it is protecting us from terror, when in fact it is inciting terror. What am I talking about? It is a fact, US government officials such as DHS and the FBI are using the denial of human rights in order to prove terrorism exists. The US government is pinning emotionally distraught people as terrorists. In other words, Government officials are denying people world wide of their rights in "hopes" the denial will cause an outburst. Once the outburst occurs, this anger is used to show us; "see, terrorists exist! "US government is kidding me right? I see right through these people. Abusers are not hero's. What a joke.
So a domestic abuser shows love by abusing the person he loves? It appears to me US government officials are the entities that suffer from severe personality disturbances. What normal person, or rather healthy person deprives another person of their rights in favor of their own rights if he wasn't suffering from an invasive brain disorder? Either that or he has jacked himself up on steroids for so long he is officially brain damaged. Steroid damage and severe invasive brain disorder have similar symptoms. I am no doctor but I have read up on both subjects. I can say there is equal balance between these two issues.
What exists, as I see, are people suffering from a severe form of PTSD. The US government is creating emotional stress world wide just to propel its demented politically motivated agenda.
So is it worth damaging peoples lives in order to prove you're some kind of Hercules US government? You people make me sick. Psychos. I despise men that abuse. Abusers are psychotic lunatics. Especially men in government.

The war on terror has not actually been a war on terror but rather it has been a war on the poor Iraqi people. Why would I or anyone say such a thing? It is really quite simple; where is Osama bin Laden? At one point President George W. Bush said that bin Laden could run but he couldn't hide but later he said bin Laden was not important. I'm a fairly bright fellow but I don't see how that can be so when bin Laden was the mastermind of 9/11.
All I can make of it is that George W. Bush just doesn't know what he is doing. If that's the case then it is long passed time for the war to come to an end. What terrorists are they after in Iraq? Does anyone even know any more? If it's the folks who are killing US soldiers then keep one thing in mind; US soldiers are seen to be invading their country. I would be attacking any soldier who I felt was invading my country especially when there is no longer a clear objective; which should be capturing or killing Osama bin Laden. If you are no longer doing that then you are no longer fighting anything related to terror.
So how on earth could anyone see the war on terror become a backlash? It's really quite simple; when people feel that one country has invaded them they will often develop a deep seated hatred of that invading country. Then what you have is young kids growing up feeling as though they are being conquered and so they might conceivably grow up with a desire to do something about that hatred; especially, if the invaders are there for year after year.
Don't allow yourself to become confused, this is not a war about any kind of freedom. It's not about the freedom of the American people because terrorists have no interest in your freedom but rather in many other things. Seeing this war as a way to give the so-called "gift" of freedom to the world at large is overly simplistic.
There were no calls from any of the Iraqi people for freedom and if the US government truly wanted to spread freedom throughout the world then there are other even more despicable dictators in the world. The biggest issue with that is that many of these dictators have larger armies and more equipment than Iraq had. So attacking one of those dictators would be out of the question because maybe they might have kicked the US invaders out of their country in an embarrassment greater than Viet Nam.
When you offer a "gift" to people who have neither asked for it nor want it then it is easy to imagine why there might well be a backlash if the people were to feel invaded and the invaders were to spend an undo amount of time in their country.
