    Ok, she is going off the deep end, but the lead of the article misrepresents her.

    Here is the exact quote:

    "No, because it's not true," Sheehan replied. "You know Iraq was no threat to the United States of America until we invaded. I mean they're not even a threat to the United States of America. Iraq was not involved in 9-11, Iraq was not a terrorist state. But now that we have decimated the country, the borders are open, freedom fighters from other countries are going in, and they [American troops] have created more terrorism by going to an Islamic country, devastating the country and killing innocent people in that country. The terrorism is growing and people who never thought of being car bombers or suicide bombers are now doing it because they want the United States of America out of their country."
    What she says is far out enough, but she is labeling all the sides as terrorists, more along the lines of "the US is a terrorist occupier, and freedom fighters in Iraq and coming to Iraq have responded with terrorism to get the US out".

    You're an asshole. There's a difference in fighting out in the desert and crashing planes into our workplaces.



    Well seeings he voluntarily signed up for two tours, I think I know where he stands.

    I'm fairly certain he would have smacked the out of his mom by now on behalf of all of us, his fellow troops, and himself. See, speculating can be fun
    lol, you do know the English said a very similar thing when the American army started using guerrilla tactics against them in the war of independence. "Hiding behind bushes and trees isn't the same as coming out here and fighting like a man"

    The difference is that they didn't target civilians, unless they were giving financial/logistic/strategic support to the redcoats. There is a difference between using guerilla tactics and just blowing up whatever civilian target you can.

    and most of the terrorists in iraq aren't even ing iraqis... the ones that are iraqis are saddam loyalists. if you stick up for any terrorist you are a terrorist yourself and should be forced to fight along side them.

    Just wanted you to know what a wonderful, thoughtful person this lady is:
    This was taken from the Drudge Report this morning. Once again she is putting down
    our military and her Son. Of course at no loss of money to her.


    CINDY SHEEHAN CALLS FOR U.S TO 'PULL OUR TROOPS OUT OF OCCUPIED NEW ORLEANS'
    Mon Sep 12 2005 12:42:11 ET

    Celebrity anti-war protester, fresh off inking a lucrative deal with Speaker's Bureau, has demanded at the HUFFINGTON POST and MICHAEL MOORE'S website that the United States military must immediately leave 'occupied' New Orleans.

    "I don't care if a human being is black, brown, white, yellow or pink. I donŐt care if a human being is Christian, Muslim, Jew, Buddhist, or pagan. I don't care what flag a person salutes: if a human being is hungry, then it is up to another human being to feed him/her. George Bush needs to stop talking, admit the mistakes of his all around failed administration, pull our troops out of occupied New Orleans and Iraq, and excuse his self from power. The only way America will become more secure is if we have a new administration that cares about Americans even if they donŐt fall into the top two percent of the wealthiest."

    Sheehan is in the middle of a bus trip across America in support of her cause.

    That makes a little more sense.

    Cindy's doubts about the war has always been consistant.
    Huh? Last year after her son's death she met with Bush, and came out afterwards and said that Bush was a nice, sincere man, and that she supported him and what her son fought and died for.

    Now Bush is a terrorist. You call that consistent?

    lol, you do know the Americans were fighting for independence. AQ wants global genocide against all non-Muslims. Even you should be able to figure out the difference there.

    She said the recruiter lied to her son...

    Why did he re-enlist 2 times? .. he had 10 years in and on 2nd tour..

    He was helping a village get drinking water installed when he was killed by a bunch s that she just happens to be the number one U.S. supporter of.. the people that killed her son...

    Cindy has helped out the cause and the blood of many soldiers and iraqi's is now on her hands...
