why are we on alert?

Yeah. Leave it alone. The only reason we were ever a target of terrorism is because we've been meddling in the Middle East for 6 decades. The Iranian hostage crisis was the first strike back and we act like it came out of nowhere. 40 more years of meddling and where are we? We're in a much worse position because we haven't got anywhere, and we've had thousands of deaths and we're a few trillion in the whole and for our efforts.

Ron Paul is a realist. People that think a war on terror can be won are the ones with their head in the sand.

You don't get it. They hate us because we're different. Because we're not Islamic.

Do you believe everything our goverment tells us? I sure don't! Al-qaeda is still active! Until they are eradicted, it's not over. As far as I know, only One person is still in charge of what happens. No, it's not our commander-in-chief in Washington! I don't trust him! God is in charge and He knows what's going on and it may not be over until Christ returns and that may be before the end of the decade. Until then, we still have Al qaeda to put up with, plus the Chinese and any other country trying to do away with democracy.

Maybe they hate us because we're not Islamic, but they made us a target of terrorism because of our aggressive foreign policy. They never attacked us before we became invasive in their part of the world.

Unless you live in an Embassy located in an arid country with little lightning.

Yeah, I'm not saying the odds are good in an embassy in Libya. I'm saying Americans on American soil shouldn't feel afraid at all. Puts the $trillions we spend on this war on terror in perspective.

Islam "owns" a part if the world?

Tell that to the 15 million plus illegals who strolled across the border....No chance of suitcase nuke or dirty bomb coming to a town near you.

I'm not arguing against protecting the border. You're missing the point.
