    To those of you who made insensitive comments,
    Even though the highjackers are responsible for taking the lives of so many people, THEY WERE ALSO HUMAN BEINGS. Just becuase they did this does NOT mean that they shouldn't be treated like you are treating them, like filth. I am saddened by your comments and hope you realize how disturbing your comments really are.

    • Posted By: coolbreeze2 @ 01/09/2009 5:37:56 PM

      Damn right I'm insensitive to the hi-jackers and anyone else wishing harm to our country. I knew I'd read about at least one of you bleeding, forgiving hearts trying to throw the "human Being " aspect at us. If you feel that way, YOU bury 'em.........I only have 2 words for you .....*** 'em.

      They are not human beings

      a true christian comment; no one is forgetting, but overcoming huge obstacles to forgive.
      As for the pig comments, THAT is what terrorism is about. Ignorance and inducing fear in others by pure brutality and filth.

    If you have made a simple research on youtube, will discover that 9/11 was an inside job under the supervision and clearence of the Bush's administration. This was important for them to justify a war on Iraq and Afganistan.

    • Posted By: coolbreeze2 @ 01/09/2009 5:23:36 PM

      Please take your butt back to where ever you came from. You sound like a terrorist sympathizer to me and you should be put under mental evaluation or deported.

  • Posted By: coolbreeze2 @ 01/09/2009 5:20:01 PM

    I doubt any American would care....throw them in the trash ,feed what's left of them to dogs and pigs. Frankly, I don't give a rat's ass about any enemy of our Country. And, for you bleeding hearts and Muslim sympathizers, if you want me to say something good about the dead terrorists, i will...........GOOD...They're dead!

    Do you have a job and do you get a paycheck? My 23 years was no different. I paid for my education out of my military pay just like people pay for their education out of their job pay. Do people get a pension when they retire, my retirement is no different. Remember, I pay taxes as well; taken out of my military pay, taken out of my retiement pay and taken out of my now civilian job pay. The old "I pay your salary" doesn't wash.

    • Posted By: Bill Smith @ 01/07/2009 12:55:13 PM

      The money you received had to be stolen from others first. If you are paid with tax dollars, it is impossible to pay taxes, just a nice little paperwork magic to make you feel good.

      • Posted By: Combat Goldfish @ 01/07/2009 2:18:06 PM

        Is that even a remotely serious comment? If so...

        If you go to https://mypay.dfas.mil/mypay.aspx you will notice that the 2008 Tax Statements (W-2 and 1099) will be available for most members of the armed forces. Yes, we are paid by the government, tax dollars, ect. However, that doesn't mean we'll be exempt from paying taxes. If you go onto any active duty post you'll see tax offices open processing tax returns ect. No majic involved. They take the $$$ out of your check. Try reviewing it the IRS or tax professional. They'll laugh at you if you actually believe the military doesn't have to pay taxes.

        • Posted By: Bill Smith @ 01/07/2009 7:41:14 PM

          You have just shown your ignorance, but then again most sheep think like you. If you receive stolen money, and do not produce anything on your own, how in the hell can you pay taxes? Educated people laugh at you. Statists, like you, are confused.

          • Posted By: Combat Goldfish @ 01/08/2009 11:48:00 AM

            I have shown my ignorance by proving your wrong? You continue to ramble about tax money being ???stolen money???, yet have had nothing to support your claim.

            • Posted By: Bill Smith @ 01/09/2009 7:13:05 AM

              You have not proved a thing other than doublethink. You might want to look that up.

              • Posted By: Combat Goldfish @ 01/09/2009 1:02:22 PM

                Yet again you dodge the topic at hand and make another failed attempt at an insult.

                • Posted By: Bill Smith @ 01/09/2009 1:18:35 PM

                  I'm not dodging anything. The topic is you support theft. No insult needed.

                  • Posted By: Combat Goldfish @ 01/09/2009 2:15:49 PM

                    I support theft because I posted on newsweek that soldier's have to file taxes just like everyone else?

  • Posted By: Aardwolf @ 01/09/2009 11:51:52 AM

    The corpses of murderers should be wrapped in the skin of pigs and buried upside down facing westward....just like we did in the Moro wars.

  • Posted By: BOFORCE @ 01/08/2009 10:36:21 PM

    9/11 was a flase flag inside job........the WTC towers were brought down by Thermites planted inside...and the plane that hit Pentagon was not even a pessanger plane...but remotely controlled syp plane GLOBAL HWAK......very strange but also very comical the passport of one of the hijacker Mohammad Atta was found unscathed in the rubbles of WTC....LOZZZZZZ
    Poor direction of this sofisticated drama....

    lol Nice theory crazy. Even if the government did suppress things like that did you even think they might have a reason? And I'm not saying the government knows all, honestly, I think the Bush presidency has shown that. But really, It's either freedom with having to put up with the stupidity of the general public, or zero freedom and having to fight for food and water everyday. You choose nut job.

    If Amerika was not a fascist state, 9/11 would have never happened. In a free country, people are allowed to defend themselves at all times. Not true in Amerika since airline passengers are not allowed to defend themselves.

    • Posted By: Combat Goldfish @ 01/07/2009 2:47:16 PM

      You should tell that to the family members of flight 93.

      You can also reference several incidents of people getting out of control on flights and or claiming to have a bomb, and us citizens defending themselves and restraining the subject. And this has all been recorded since 9/11

      • Posted By: Bill Smith @ 01/07/2009 7:44:20 PM

        We see how well that went, the plane crashed (if you believe the official story since most Amerikans are cowards). In the 1950s through the 1970s people were allowed to carry pistols and rifles on board with them. Hijackings occurred after they stopped that. Of course only fascists don't support self-defense anywhere at anytime.

        • Posted By: Combat Goldfish @ 01/08/2009 11:14:19 AM


          You???re more than welcome to believe whatever you wish, based on reports. However, that???s a logical explanation of the plane crashing. As you may recall it was in a rural field. Several family members have reported of the plans of those on board to overtake the hijackers. I don't recall any one of the passengers having flight experience. Do you? And that???s besides the pilots that we're killed. I assume after they had an epic battle with the hijackers they could have suddenly had the knowledge of how to fly and safely land a jet. Get real.

          Americans (Which you can???t seem to spell correctly, I thought I would do it for you.) are not cowards. Yes, some people get scared in certain situations, but I certainly wouldn???t define a majority of country cowards.

          The 1950???s, 1960???s, and 1970???s, had been a more peaceful time. The United States isn???t the wild west it once was, sadly. The Airlines can make their own rules as far as what can be brought onto their planes. I'm not sure I'd trust anyone else with a firearm on a plane other than someone who is trained and certified. I'm not even sure if given the choice to carry on a plane, if I would.

          • Posted By: Bill Smith @ 01/08/2009 1:03:05 PM

            There is the problem the airlines do not get to follow their own rules. They are forced at gunpoint by the government to do its bidding.

            Yes, most Amerikans are cowards. One example is the VA Tech students who cowered in corners while some dumb ass was reloading. Of course it would have never happened like it did if people were allowed to defend themselves, just like 9/11 when the cowards were scared of box cutters.. Ever wonder why when government grows, the less peaceful society is. Of course those who worship the state don???t think so.

    90 percent of americas armed forces had no choice but to join. Spare me the they are fighting for me B.S...They couldn't finish high school and McDonalds didn't want them.

      As a service member in the Navy, I'd just like to point out that there are plenty of people who are educated. There are even more working towards their degrees. Many people in my own command have degrees; and yes, I'm referring to the enlisted personnel, not the officers. I myself have a B.A., and I got it before I even joined the Navy. I'm third generation Navy, so this is a tradition my family takes pride in. Yes, my parents are also college educated. I'd appreciate it if some people stopped referring to the military branches as a bunch of retards, because you'd be surprised. I also agree with the other poster that even McDonald's is better than no job. We don't need further draining on Welfare here....

    • Posted By: gigglinggirl @ 01/06/2009 3:26:18 PM

      You disrespect those men and women who joined after 9/11, and those that have family military backgrounds, and joined because it was a tradition passed down from other family members. Lots of families have multiple cops, firefighters (or even doctors) in their family, and the same goes for the military. As for suggesting that the rejects of society join the military...even those you would label "rejects", once they get through basic training (which isn't a cake-walk, by the way), deserve the respect that you would give anyone who is able to adopt and live by the discipline the military demands. There is a very big difference between disputing our justification (or lack thereof) of going to war in Iraq, and suggesting that everyone in the military is someone who couldn't get a job at MacDonalds! (By the way...are you suggesting that it is better for someone to be unemployed than to work at MacDonalds???? MacDonalds is one of the ONLY publicly-traded companies that hasn't been slammed by the 2008 credit disaster! MCD started the year around 57 (1/4/08) and today, even after being off 1.56 (at 12:26 PST), is trading at 62!!!!! Maybe YOU should be working at MacDonalds!!!!!!!!!)

      I'd love to see where you're getting your figures from.

      I must fit into the 10%, with nearly all those I've had the pleasure of serving with.

    the definitive remains of the hijackers should be stuffed in the carcass of dead pig (one that was humanely slaughterd and found to be unfit for human consupmtion) and buried facing the west at the minimum.

    @nitlystars_angel, I hope in all sincerity that you're kidding. There is no need to "see things through their eyes." They started this. We're going to finish it. Period.

    There is nothing heroic in attacking and highjacking planes and turning them into missiles. There is no honor in hiding from your enemy. How dare you compare the highjackers to our troops. Our troops fight are fighting for our liberty. OUR liberty. We're not trying to convert the world to Islam; we don't have a 100 year plan to convert the entire world to Christianity or Democracy.

    "Let's come out on top"? Because ... what? We provoked the attacks of 9/11? With what? our lifestyle? our culture? You would bend our way of life to conform to their deluded psychoses, just to come out on top of a battle that THEY brought to US.

    No, nitlystars_angel. You're wrong. Our troops do not deserve the dishonor of being lumped into the same category with those 19 highjackers or any other terrorist. Shame on you for suggesting they do.

    Shoot them into space on the next NASA mission...or at least get them of American soil. The do not even deserve to have there remains in this great country! If that is not possible then let each family of the victims curse there bone fragments and burnt flesh before dumping them in the ocean. Get them as far away from the greatest country in the world, the USA. make sure the last thing they come in contact with is an American Flag. These people did one of the worst things you can do and that is eff with America. Since we cant torture them to death then get rid of them. Sing the Star Spangled Banner as they float away of are crushed by spaces pressures. If we bury them then our soil will become infertile. If we give them to the pigs then pork will become poison. Now, everyone who is trashing Islamic and Muslim people, that is not right. There are plenty of them who do not want to kill Americans. Blame bin ladin ( his name does not deserve to be capitalized). Not every Middle Easterner is evil. So don't let one bad apple spoil the bunch. My prayers are forever with the families and friends of the victims and remember...AMERICA IS THE BEST!
