Oh my god...I'd just advise you not to post if you don't have anything smart to say. Crusades weren't thousands of years ago, 2 thousand years ago there wasn't even Christianity. You don't know when the Crusades have actually happened, do you?
There's much more than "getting rid of terrorist" and you know that well. But the main thing why I brought up the Crusades is that this is a war where people forget about the primary cause. In every war you have a reason and a trigger. 11/9 was just the the trigger. The real reason is something else. Hussein is down, so why don't they retreat now and stop getting more and more casualties?
What kind of "focus" are you talking about anyway?
What happens when you build a skyscraper and pull the main support beam(s)? It all comes crashing down. You can't really pull yourself out of a 100 mile maze. But, yeah. None of knows what's going through the minds of the US Government, therfore it's not really plausible to say or assume shit. Oh, btw. It's not all George Bush. You realize the concepts and principals of how a democracy works? Yeah. It's no dictatorship.
As for the most dangerous countries, Russia.
