We have lost the moral high ground through no fault of our troops but a failure of leadership.What false pretense? We went in to take out Saddam. We knew damn well we weren't just going to leave the country in ruin after we took him out. This is all part of liberating the Iraqi people. You're complaining about school supplies. Well, my contention is that most terrorists, Atta, UBL, and a few others aside, are products of illiteracy and deceptive governments, Ie. Saudi Arabia.

The Mullahs there are very rich and deceptively preach out of one side of their mouth that the US is the great satan while acting as our friends out of the other. Literacy, as I see it, is the key to ending terrorism as most terrorists are illiterate and the ones that aren't have a religious agenda, however, most won't do the dirty work. Any questions?

Some of those nations have quite high literacy rates, but consider the closed society in which they live. Most Saudis, for example, don't have access to information that Americans and Brits have access to, because ultimately our societies are open.Oddball Wrote:Did you type that with a straight face? :rolleyes:Literacy, as I see it, is the key to ending terrorism as most terrorists are illiterate and the ones that aren't have a religious agenda, however, most won't do the dirty work.
