The west will not lose.

The west will not lose. This is not merely a statement, but more or less a fact. I live very close to where a hezbollah terrorist cell was thwarted. They were buying cigarettes here, and selling them up north. Here in North Carolina cigarette taxes are small. So they would buy them cheap here, and sell them at a higher cost to the people up north. They made millions doing this. But they were stopped.

I don't know if any of you are aware of the internment camps that have been set up inside the USA , but they are here. 358 million dollars was awarded to Halliburton to build these camps inside the US and abroad... gitmo ring a bell? I have a feeling this is going to get really ugly..and really fast! but when the dust settles... and it always does... there will be 100's of thousands of hezbollah, hamas,deccenters, and quite possibly illegal aliens housed in gitmo style internment camps right here in MY country!

I am all for the individualist republic in which this great country was founded, but when it comes to protecting the people we love, we must take a collectivist stand and do what is right for the good of the greater number. Especially when that number includes me and my loved ones. The gloves will come off if they attack here. We will not stand idle and allow another attack without swift and extreme justice... extreme prejudice must be enacted if such an attack occurs.
