Have you ever noticed that wherever we go, war follows? The reason for 9-11 to begin with is our lopsided involvement in the middleast {blind alegenge to Israel}. If we want peace {which we really don't}, we have to first stop shooting at them. Everytime we kill an Arab, we create more terrorists. There isn't a one of you that couldn't be a terrorist under the right circumstances, say kill your family for example. What we really need to do is end all aid to all countries and all military involvement. Our tax money should stay at home and maybe after about 10 years of minding our oun business it will be safe to travel and we will get some respect back.

War is not about the promotion of indeceny, immodesty, sexuality,homosexuality, abortion, swearing. It is about violent people who live in violent countries like Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq. These people who live in these countries have no respect for human life what so ever. They especially have no respect for Americans or any one person that is white in color. I have been to Afghanistan and I have seen albino Afghans. If they would be captured by the Taliban, they would be killed because of their color. It is not that person that is at fault. It is not their fault they were born that way. Does anyone that will read my comment know why that albino would be killed? How about I help you all out on this one. Its because the Taliban thinks that their mother was raped by a Russian. The Taliban hates Russia as much as they hate America. The war is based on the lack of respect for the white race any and all aspects. Please feel free to reply to my comments.

"It is written in the holy books" has power beyond the great armaments and technology of Russia and United States and all NATO troops. Just as Christians know we cannot reject Jesus Christ and be saved, the Muslim must believe in Jesus-Isa and the word of God through their prophet. Their Qur'an says that forces will come and try to take away their religion. Fight until religion is fully professed. They will not stop. Hell and destruction is promised to those who refuse to fight.
More US military means more deaths and we cannot afford to forget how many people profess Islam and would be willing to fight where-ever they are. "There is no peace to the wicked." That is a promise of God.
War will end when we stop promoting indecency, immodesty, sexuality, homosexuality, abortion, swearing, violence and women that ignore their families to seek after greater riches. These things have destroyed our nation and will keep us in war.
Pay for all the women and people who want those things to move to an area where they can do that and leave those who fear God's power and truth live righteously in another area. That is how God said it will be. There will be the holy city and outside will be the wicked. Revelation 22:14, 15
