Al Qaeda hurting for money, resigned to defeat in Afghanistan

I hope this is authentic. It would be nice to see some end in sight to the problems that are going on now. Can't rule out this being either a fake or a piece of counter propaganda on the part of the Pentagon.

 

Did anyone watch Fox 26 news this morning with Jan Jeffcoat.


anyway they had a story about Al Qaeda recruiting over the internet.

 

The CNN and Pentagon both have an agenda. Use your brain here, people - don't just selectively believe anything you wish were true to support your position.

Basso: The last couple days have seen an exponential increase in childish behavior within your posts. I guess you feel the need, in your bitterness, to finally sink to the level of TJ/texxx and post rude insults and bizarre accusations rather than meaningful contributions.

Sad really. Where once I tought you were thoughtful and mature, you have now sunk to the ignore list level.

 

If authentic, then it is good news. I've never questioned the need to go into Afghanstan or fight Al Qaeda. I still maintain invading Iraq was not the best way to do that.

As a liberal I believe that invading Iraq will be Bush's undoing. Do I want that to happen, no. Sort of like my view of the 2005 Astros. Do I think they'll make it to the World Series, no. Would I like the Astros to make it, yes.

 

I think this is great news but wasn't Al Qaeda in Afghanistan supposed to be defeated 3 years ago?

We've heard several reports over the past years proclaiming the end is near for Al Qaeda, Iraqi insurgents yet they still keep on going so pardon me for some skepticism.

 

We've been hearing from some posters for years proclaiming that the end is near for Batman Jones, Glynch, and Wnes yet they still keep on going so pardon me for some skepticism.

 

For years? Un-freakin'-believable! I have only come to D&D since the start of this Rockets offseason, was not even a lurker before that. We've got some really prophetic posters here ...

 

You can look at it this way. You have achieved the status of Batman and Glynch in just one offseason. Your potential is boundless!

 

Yeah basso, cause everybody knows I've been rooting for Al Qaeda. You're an ass.

 

basso, desperate for attention, shows his best side once again.

 

LOL!

Basso's deslusions of Americans supporting Al Qaeda is so unfounded it is almost pointless to even argue. People who oppose war in Iraq or want immediate withdraw are little to nothing in ways of supporting terrorism. Yet Basso seems to make that claim over and over again, and refuses to listen or can't listen to discussions on based on reality about the subject.

Basso's claim is like me saying that anyone who likes Reagan supports terrorism since after all he sent weapons to the terrorist supporting govt. of Iran during his presidency. Surely terrorists want weapons even more than they crave for Batman's support of an immediate withdraw in Iraq.

So we might as well face the facts that until we see Basso post some anti-Reagan news stories, that he supports terrorists. Basso actually wants the terrorists to win, and his support of those that give weapons to terrorists only prove it.

 

bigtexxx goes William B. Travis and draws a line in the sand.

 

Oh yes everything is going great. Women can move freely in Afghanistan uncovered, the non-drug economy is doing great, Osama is in jail but the Admin hasn't gotten around to issuing a press release. Things in Iraq are going swimmingly well there too. I'm booking my Christmas vacation to Mosul this year. I hear the Euphrates is beautiful under a December moon.

Give me an effin break. If you read many of my posts on the GARM or the Astros forum you'll see I'm a skeptic there too when it comes to irrationally exuberant news like that the Rox are going to win 74 games and Yao will make Shaq cry like a baby or that the Stros are going to sweep the Cards out of the playoffs. There is nothing wrong with a healthy does of skepticism.

But then again I must secretly be rooting for Al Qaeda, The Braves and worst of all the Jazz. Yes you've found me out Biggtexx. GO JAZZ!

 

Just to clarify, I don't support an immediate withdrawal. I opposed the invasion, I've opposed the way the war's been waged and I oppose "staying the course" in a losing cause, but we can't just split now. I favor an exit strategy with a full withdrawal as soon as possible, but it's apparent to me that that can't be immediate. I don't pretend to know how or when we can get out -- I just know the war was a horrible mistake to begin with (one that's resulted in thousands of stupidly unnecessary deaths) and that the current strategy is a plain failure. As for what should happen next, I haven't heard a good idea about that from Republicans or Democrats.

 

thanks guys, i've often heard my ass is my best side...
