America is a "Muslim nation"? Since when? And what is this *one* "Muslim
nation" you speak of? Sorry, it sounds like religious fanaticism to me -
the same kind that creates suicide bombers in civilian areas.
Have to wonder why these "oppressed" people pack their bags and immigrate
to America in the first place. There weren't any "native" Muslims in USA,
AFAIK.

Ahem. I won't point out examples to further inflame the issue, but you know
you're wrong on that one.

Just like Bush and Blair made plans to occupy Iraq "Real Soon Now". And
what do you mean by "Indian-occupied" anyway? That's like
"American-occupied" Texas. (Incidentally, democratic elections were held in
Kashmir recently and a majority voted a government into power. Not quite
the repressed people you think.)

You can't launch a nuke as far as USA. Assuming of course that USA does
attack Pakistan, which I doubt very much. (But maybe if they found Osama
hiding there ;)

Man... it feels like the Crusades all over again. More people calling for
war in the name of religion. Damn, I'm glad I'm an atheist.
It's scary, I tell you.
Look, I may not like Bush. I may not agree with his war against Iraq. I
even know he's a religious fella. But I'm fairly confident that this
conflict is not about religion at all. This isn't "Christians v/s Muslims",
despite your apparent need to feel that way. This to me is mostly economic.
If Bush wanted to defile holy Muslim places, he could go wipe out Saudi
Arabia, which has Mecca and Medina. There goes your Haj. But Bush is great
pals with the barbaric Saudis. Bush hasn't invaded Indonesia - the country
with the most Muslims in the world. He hasn't invaded India - more than 130
million Muslims. (And please spare the conspiracy theory that we're next etc.)
