Just tourists enjoying a peaceful day at the Capitol, nothing to see here…

Trump wasn't there. Who was leading them?

[DooKSucks]

Hitler wasn't at the concentration camps...

[innocentbystander]

Hitler wasn't at the concentration camps...

No, but people who knowingly committed murders, were. There was no one murdered on Jan 6. 5 people died at the Capitol, not 6,000,000. Other than Officer Sicknick (and I have read reports that he didn't die from his injuries) the only people who were killed, were rioters.

You are going to have to get over your Trump Derangement Syndrome counsellor. Or don't get over it, I don't care.

I wonder when our once-a-year poster will show up today?

Entropy, perhaps this is just emotion talking, but I'm of the opinion that ANY group that claims responsibility is to be targeted and eliminated with malice. There should be no free-rides to publicity on the back of this outrage. ANY country that harbors these people is to be considered an enemy at war with the United States. No soveriegnty, no recognition of political standing whatsoever. If the UN tries to play "broker", we immediately withdraw.

The outcry for GWB to respond is going to be overwhelming, unbelievable, any adjective you want to use.
I don't think the people who did this realize that they have just called down the wrath of God down upon them.
People do not understand the American psyche. They think we are weak and unwilling to suffer casualties etc. That we are UNABLE to respond. That simply is not the case.
Perhaps I've read to many Clancy books (this is right out of Debt of Honor), but these people are dead already. They just don't know it yet.

I have not been able to connect to any of the news .coms - currently have BBC world net on - it is interesting to hear the 'foreign' slant - the first expressions were being totally appalled and outraged - then the 'analysis' set in - most initial reactions were that the US was ripe for this type of action due to lax security in respect to the rest of the world - then came the 'discussions' on possible US retaliations/reactions and the expressed fears that the US might strike 'irrationally' - the latest ruminations concern the apparent lack of adequate intelligence to forestall this type of attack...

Without the help of the nation state terrorists could not operate at all. They are at war with us. Its time to end this bullshit.

TC, where the HELL have you been?
>>Seriously, though, who do you hit at this point? It's not like Pearl Harbor where you have a country to go fight. If it's Bin Laden they have been looking for his ass for years anyway.<<<
Not true. Bin Laden exists because the Taliban and other govts ALLOW him to. Without that support he would have nowhere to hide.

You're right, TC- who do you hit? Although the Palestinians having a street party and giving out candy (just heard that on NBC) sound like a favorite right now...

How about we just napalm that fucking street party!
All we'd be doing is eliminating current and future terrorists.

We can't attack every country in the Middle East because we are dependent on their oil. This is the bed we have made...

Puter
This is more of a policework matter right now than the military operation it will soon become. I would like to see a concentrated intelligence operation determine the people behind it (who will most likely be the countries you named) and strike with all necessary force. Just wish we hadn't recently given about $40 million in aid to the Taliban for their part on the war on drugs.

Puter = fag

tree thinks 9/11 was an inside job, or, at the very least, the US (I won't say "we," since that would include tree himself) deserved it due to our far worse terrorism around the globe and particularly in the middle east. His assessment of US foreign policy is remarkably similar to Osama bin Laden's. Have I misrepresented your views, tree?
