War Against 'Terror'?

Q: Left Jeff ! Left Jeff ! Should we have defended ourselves from terrorism by invading Afghanistan and Iraq?

A: One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter. America for too long has been committing atrocities around the world. When it comes down to it, I see no difference between our invasion or Hitler's invasion during WW2. We need to understand that these so called 'terrorists' are simply victims of our capitalist system and are responding the only way they know how. In the words of Reverend Jeremiah Wright, "America's chickens are coming home to roost". If we would take the first step towards peace by laying down our arms, then perhaps have some peace talks with those that we're fighting, I think we can work through these problems in a civilized manner. This approach has worked time and time again in the Middle East. They haven't demonstrated any animosity towards us, until we invaded their country. And with democrats winning back congress, I think it's safe to say that the American people agree...we should never have entered Iraq, and we should get our troops out immediately. "One, two, three, four...we don't want your racist war!"
