Is this statement true or false...Americans are not your enemy Does it really have to be US against the whole world? Let me see if I can explain the concern this way. The Koran has words that speak of peace. But it also has words that speak of making war against the "infidels" (anyone who is not a Muslim) and subjugating the world to Islam The ones who we are having problems with are those who are following the commands to "kill the infidels" subjugate the world. How is a nicer dialogue ever going to change that? Edited January 27, 2009 by nebula Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am in full mode job hunting and the numbers jump out at me every day! Lord, I ask for You to open the way for Gator to find a job that will match his skills and provide the income he needs. May his ears be opened and his feet sensitive to Your directions over his life. We bless and thank-You for Your leading and guiding his life and drawing him deeper into You presence and glory.

Have you seen the latest jobless numbers? How about the banks going down the drain. Tell me, how can we do anything for the world if we crumble to the ground? Oh yea, I have seen the jobless numbers, on 30 June I will no longer be an active duty Marine. I am in full mode job hunting and the numbers jump out at me every day! Maybe you should reconsider! It appears that the military is the only place where there are jobs. He is moving so fast in too many directions to keep count and follow him. This I do agree with. It seems he is trying to use these first few weeks to get his whole agenda on the table and then hopfully he will sit back and start to focus on the true important issue. The problem is what he is putting on the table is his priorities. He claimed himself that world peace is on the top of his list. Again, how can we be of any assistance if we are bankrupted, as the case of Russia? Look at the loss of power in the world standing they had because of the financial downfall of their country. I still am waiting to hear the words, "7 Years Peace Agreement"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I am asking the same thing. That he heed the Lord's guidance. I still say he needs to have a chance though. He's been in office what ... a week today (Tuesday)... give him a chance...

I believe taking a few hours, or a couple of days, to deal with the war while his proposals for bail outs are being fought over is a good use of time. Making speaches and being a diplomat does not mean he is not working on all the other issues at the same time. And I really do not see what the hubbub is about the artical as a whole (or in part) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
