America has problems, but America is NOT THE PROBLEM!~
You chose
Published on July 17, 2007 By Moderateman In War on Terror

 There seems to be the opinion the Al Qaeda is the single biggest threat to America. I say Bologna! Hezbollah is much more trained, funded and has a much larger and in your face following than Al qaeda has ever had, the only thing Al Qaeda has going for it is the name, and Osama Bin Laden AKA Cave dweller, He dares not to even show his face in public, while the leader of Hezbollah lives the life of comfort in Lebanon, thumbing his nose at the west and Israel.

In your opinion which of the terror groups is the most dangerous, there are so many to chose from:

Terror Groups                                                           

Abu Sayyaf
Al Fuqra
Al Gama'at Islamiyya
Al Muhajiroun
Al Qaeda
Algerian Armed Islamic Group
Algerian Islamic Salvation Front
American Islamic Group
Hamas
Hezbollah
Islamic Jihad
Islamic Liberation Party
ISNA
Jamaat e-Islamia
Jamaat ul-Fuqra
Mara Salvatruchas
Muslim Brotherhood
National Islamic Front
Yemen Islamic Jihad

all the above are known terror orginazations and are listed among known terror groups by American Intelligence.

Then there are the NATIONS that support terrorism, either sheltering them or financing them, giving them intelligence or arming them, Which Nation would you say is the biggest threat to America?

  • Flag of Cuba Cuba - Added in 1982 though no official explanation was provided. A 2003 report contended that Cuba supported terrorist groups during the period it was added to the report. Current justification cites support for members of Basque ETA and the Colombian Farc  and ELN groups. Conversely, Cuba has accused the United States of supporting, sponsoring and initiating Terrorism against Cuba since 1961. Those who oppose Cuba's retention on the list contend that Cuba has made repeated offers to the United States since 2001 for a bilateral agreement to fight international terrorism, but the United States has not responded Critics also argue that domestic political considerations are responsible and question many of the allegations made in the State department report
  • Flag of Iran Iran- Added in1984 According to the State Department, "continued to provide Lebanese Hezbollah and the Palestinian rejectionist groups—notably Hamas Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and the PFLP-GC —with varying amounts of funding, safe haven, training, and weapons. It also encouraged HEZBOLLAH and the rejectionist Palestinian groups to coordinate their planning and to escalate their activities."
  • Flag of North Korea NORTH KOREA- Added in 1988  Sold weapons to terrorist groups and to have given asylum to Japanese Communist League-Red Army Faction members. The country is also responsible for the Rangoon Bombing and the bombing of Kal Flight 858 
  • Flag of Sudan SUDAN - Added in 1993 "A number of international terrorist groups including Al-Qaeda , the Egyptian Islamic Jihad, Egyptian Al-Gama's al-, the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and Hamas  continued to use Sudan as a safe haven, primarily for conducting logistics and other support activities."
  • Flag of SyriaSyria - "provided Hezbollah, Hamas, PFLP-GC, the PIJ, and other militia organizations refuge and basing privileges."

There is a difference between socialized medical health care, and universal health care.


In the lower 48, it is a matter of semantics. In reality, it is the same down here (what they want versus what we have). It would be one thing to mandate health care (univerisal), but they are gearing up to have the government provide it (socialized). They call it universal, but as you point out, it is socialized.

do you know what is the strangest thing of all? Canada's deficit has been stopped by the LIBERAL party. While the conservative government is increasing spending in useless military infrastructures (while he could at least use it in more efficient fields of military)


I believe that Liberal has much different meanings in Canada and America.

they can call it what they want to, but to me it still smacks of Communism.

that is the third time you say this to me, in three different post. It has the same meaning, you agreed with me when I described their general position.

what do you mean?

(I can't believe we switched from a quite interessant topic to a sheer boring one. I mean, what do you care about Canada's healthcare? It has flaws, it has good points, period. It could use a little more capitalism, and USA's could use a little socialism. You are the single most right-wing country about this, ye know?)

What the Contintental USA (without Alaska and Hawaii) are often referred to.

But back to topic - however, as you see, topics have a life of their own, and tangents are often the rule, not the exception.

Leave it to danielost to take the article topic and shove it out the window and replace it with his own topic. LOL. I am curious as to how he managed to go from the biggest threat to the US to Canada's "unfair", to American non-Canadian truck driver, universal healthcare system.

Mostly, I just don't see his objective. What is he trying to prove by bashing Canada's healthcare system?

Even if you people are not supportive of universal healthcare like in canada (I don't know), you don't go out of your way trying to show how it's bad in every way possible.

Such is the fate of good threads. Cursed by someone who has nothing to do but come trolling around...

No grief retained


Anyway, stay tuned. I'll start a thread soon about the upcoming islamisation of the muslim countries, and how the actual war of terrorisms fits into it. It's a development about what I already talked before, but pushed even more forward.

Just make sure to put a disclaimer so that Canada's universal healthcare system stays out of the conversation. Not unless Canada's universal healthcare system has something to do with the "islamisation of the muslim countries".

I look forward to it.


I ditto that.
