Al-Qaeda

The name Al-Qaeda when translated from Arabic means “the base.” In essence, this means that this organization is the base for terror. Al-Qaeda has become one of the most feared and hated organizations of our time. Under the leadership of Osama bin Laden, these extremists have carried out bombings and attacks in dozens of countries over the years. Their most infamous attack took place on September 11, where more than 3000 people were killed. War was declared on this terror group and is still on going to this day.
What most people forget is that Al-Qaeda is not a bottom-to-top organization. It is a loose alliance of groups that fight under a single name. Each groups goal is to end Islamic oppression in the world and wipe out non-believers of Islam. Together, they unite under one name and commit terrorist attacks around the world in Israel, Europe, and the United States of America. This group began during the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan when the CIA gave weapons to Arab Mujahadeen to combat the Russians.
Once the war was over, the armed militias formed together under Osama bin Laden. Bin Laden’s goal was to wipe out what he saw as western oppression of the Arab world. Throughout the nineties, he was financed by many Arab leaders including Saddam Hussein. He used his finances to commit terrorist attacks including bombing the USS Cole, and the attempted destruction of the Twin Towers in the early 1990s. However, Bin Laden and his fellow terrorists sought to attack America at their heart.
For many years they devised a plan to simultaneously attack national landmarks that would kill as many Americans as possible and weaken the morale of the people. On September 11 these attacks were carried out and thousands were killed. Within a month, Coalition forces arrived in Afghanistan and shut down the Al-Qaeda training camps. Al-Qaeda leaders were taken prisoner and the terrorist infrastructure was weakened. Soon it was realized that Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein had financed and supported terrorist organizations and was in possession of weapons of mass destruction.
In 2003, Iraq was invaded. The Iraqi government and army was defeated and freedom came to the Iraqis. However, the situation worsened within a few months. Many American troops were being killed and the weapons of mass destruction were not found. Al-Qaeda insurgents became a major threat to the country and are still threatening the peace of Iraq’s new democracy.
America is a machine of war and it’s so easy for you people to condemn others and judge them, something the US is so good at. As for the so called invasion of Iraq for weapons of mass destruction and the “freedom” campaign, hey I have an idea: mind your own business. You think you have the god given right to invade and take over what you wish. And Americans commit atrocities as well, most people either don’t know about it or believe its ok because its against Arabs. Things like torture facilities such as Guantanamo Bay. Americans are the only ones to ever have dropped a nuclear weapon on innocent civilians and they did so twice. (Japan WW2) Were there any trials for the Americans whose laws they so furiously advocate are suspended whenever they wish? No.
This is a country of hypocrites, a country of “freedom” despite the fact you were among the last to ever give African Americans equal rights, if they even have that, and a country that dared boast its freedom constitution while slavery was still considered the right to property; a country whose laws only apply to others and never to themselves. The U.S. is one of the most racist countries in the world. Tons of shirts and commercial entities based entirely on anti-Arab shirts, unequaled patriotism, and other not so noble enterprises. Nowhere else in the world can you find something like this.
Before you judge other devoted people so quickly, do a quick profile of yourselves and see if you are what you purport to be. The topic of this section is “Psychotic Killers”, America is a psychotic killer, you are no less patriotic than Al-Qaeda and much more dangerous.
Quite obviously a sparkling example of

Max,
First off I would like to thank you for your input on our website regarding this matter. I appreciate your view. I do because I’ve heard it so many times in my life. Day after day, it appears as if your view is getting stronger and more people are following it. However, I believe that there are three solid opinions on the war of Iraq:
1) Those that completely agree with it, 100%, because they see terrorism as a bad thing as well as weapons of mass-destruction and believe everything the media says (Those that cheer on the thought of war)
2) Those that completely disagree with it, 100%, because they believe everything the media says is false, everything, and believe that we have no right to invade or anything like you were saying. (Those that regret and point the finger at the thought of war)
Number 2 is you. The third one is I believe the best opinion and view towards the war and seems to be the most logical: 3) Those that neither agree/disagree with the war (Those that think about the facts). There is without a doubt evil in this world, on both sides of the battlefield. Every day, many people lose their lives due to the misdoings of others. Is this fair? No, of course its not. If the United States Government believes that their government can handle on its own, they will let it. However, there are many corrupt governments out there whose greed gets in the way and will fail to solve these issues. I’m not saying that the United States government is perfect, because I know thats not true, but it works. It’s structure is the most efficient form out there today, which is why the United States is a global power.
The United States will not let terrorism stand because we can beat it and we will. Start shifting towards the third view instead of the second, it seems a little too extreme to completely agree or disagree with anything, nowadays. No country is perfect, but some are more effective and efficient than others. I can tell that you aren’t from the United States so you are acting ethnocentric and most likely carrying along an opinion an authoritative person told you. I appreciate your concern however.
Paranormalknowledge.com is not the place to deliver hate-speech.
I do believe that God gave us life on this planet to love one another , that is how I was raised , May God bless every one and thank you.
its very sad to see how the world has come to its knees,stuck by terror and bloodshed everywhere.If anybody wants to achieve something for its people for a better life, than violence is not the only path but restrain from violence can be useful in achieving your goal.
