From the Department of Defense website:

We are also going against a very dedicated enemy, and sometimes we forget that," Hagee continued. "They believe just as strongly - I think incorrectly, but just as strongly - in what they are trying to achieve as we believe in what we are trying to achieve."

Of course they believe they're right. If they didn't, they wouldn't be doing it, now would they? And of course you think they're incorrect, or you wouldn't be doing what you're doing.

So what the hell is it we believe so strongly in? Democracy? Helping those in need? Because if that's it, I know some people in Africa who could use our help a lot more. I'm not sure what we believe in in Iraq now, unless it's "proving our point." *sigh*

Maybe we're supposed to believe strongly in getting Iraqi oil fields under American control.

Personally I don't think Democracy means what Bush thinks it means, if I may paraphrase The Princess Bride.

You certainly may :)

Oooh, that reminds me, there's to be a free outdoor showing of Princess Bride at a park in the city later this summer. My emotions are split between "OMGWTFAWESOME!" and "Man, there's so many people so far off who I wish could be here for that."

that's one of the dumbest things I heard in quite a while
How did that quote about stating the obvious go?

Dear Department of Defense:

What part of "Jihad" don't you understand?

Dear Crossbow1:

But we're the good guys. How could they be against what we're doing? Sure thousands of Iraqis are dying, but it's for Democracy, they should understand that.

Love,

The Department of Defense.

They are all cybernetic organisms.

We will be assimilated into the collective. Resistance is futile.

I should have posted my Borg-Bush pic for this reply, but I'm beggared if I can find it.
