the analogy to Pearl Harbor doesn't work. WWII and this war are completely different.
the analogy doesn't work? you may be right...however, can you name another time that over 3,000 American CIVILIANS were MURDERED on AMERICAN soil by FOREIGNERS? And then to claim the founding fathers wouldn't care the least because they wouldn't want to sacrifice liberty?
And whoever told me to go read a history book....if anyone here thinks the attack on perl harbor is the reason why we entered WWII, you are sadly mistaken. In reality it was a number of other reasons. BUT, don't get me wrong, the attack on Perl harbor certainly moved us to war. Much like how the Black Hand(pincup), murdered francis ferdinand of Austria...it ignited WWII, but it certainly wasn't the reason for it.
Now lets look into how you, Strech, contradict yourself...you say you can't compare the attack on perl harbor with the one on the twin towers because they were different wars aka time era's...
Yet you compare the founding fathers actions with the french, british, and indians; to the attack on the twin towers...
You stretch, said that you doubt 19 foriegners crashing into something(9/11) wouldn't move the founding fathers in any way.
Then other people come at me saying I don't think what happened at perl harbor was anything big...you took what I said out of context... the deaths at Perl Harbor were SMALL by means of deaths IN COMPARISON to Twin Towers...
Chrsit this post has gone off in so many different directions...
