Just who IS 'the enemy'?

[Philosoraptor]

Is the enemy Saddam? If so, we got him, who are we now fighting, Saddamists? Is Osama the enemy? Where did he go? Who are the enemy? The ones who attacked us? Iraq didn't attack us so, why are we there? Is 'the enemy' there? What does the enemy look like? How many enemies are there exactly, in actual numbers? Would it help if we issued the enemy uniforms?

Is Islamofascism the enemy? Is radical religious extremism the enemy? Is Iran the enemy, or Syria, or Jordan, or China, or North Korea?

The REAL enemy is still trying to convince us that the entire world is the enemy, and the real enemy is getting away with bloody murder at his leisure.

We'd better get our shit together as to who exactly the enemy is.

[DoYouEverWonder]

1. Everyone

who is not of us.

[SpiralHawk]

2. We are fighting the Evil Doers*

* does not include republicon sex deviants, chickenhawks, or corrupt republicon corporate cronies making Massive MegaBucks off of Oil & Munitions war profiteering.

3. a couple hundred global clans

,.. networks of people who seek power over others for the wrong reasons. (in people terms).
Those clans be hidden wealthy groups that own entire countries veneered with 'democracy'.

On a less physical plane, the enemy are large king-demons who seek to enslave all humanity
to their senses and baser instincts. You could say these demons are merely subconscious icons
in one's deeper awareness, or entities outside and above all political agencies commanding
humankind like shepards herd sheep.

The enemies be those clans, and you never need to find them, as if you are living well
and prospering, they will come looking for you to destroy people, take all their power and
drain them of all their will to live; hollowed out crack addicts of sensory simstim, disempowered
and not a threat to the tyranny of overlords.

4. and with your question

what is "the mission" or "the job" we have to finish, is it total extermination of a nation and its people, or as they call ethic cleansing, because that is exactly what is happening.

5. Anyone who has oil and isn't under US/Saudi control

[dubykc]

12. Yes, indeed. I can't help but wonder when a "terrorist" is going to...

surface from Venezuela, so they can be added to the invasion list.

[lectrobyte]

16. Yes, earlier in the year, it did seem like the rhetoric was heating up on

doing something to Venezuela.

6. Leprechans!

Did you know that Leprechans are responsible for a staggering 34.8% of the misery in the world? When will we engage seriously this green menace?

7. That's right, completely ignore the Troll menace

Trying to throw us off track -- but it will not work this time.

Down with the Trolls !!

8. Insurgent Leprechaun dead-enders infest my neighborhood!

Those numbers are indeed staggering me boyo. And 87% of these Leprechauns are here illegally.

9. There is no enemy, the threat of an enemy is an excuse

for the chimpy corporate machine to engage in a measure of "means" to get to the "ends". The "means" that they employ are the taking of our civil liberties under the premise that this will make us safer, and the employment of a huge military industrial to fight towards these unknown "ends". The trick that has been played on us is that the "means" are the "ends". They don't want power to fight a war or make us safe. They want power. The power to control us and the world. They will use anything that they can drum up to give them more power. After 9/11 we gave them power over our civil rights. They continued to take power at every turn.

10. For me, it's the guys shooting at me.

Who the heck ever it was who dropped 10 mortar rounds close enough to make my trailer shake this morning? That's the enemy. Or an extremely well-armed cranky person.

[CJCRANE]

11. The guy who sits next to me at work

said yesterday that we should just bomb Iraq.

I said we already did that.

He said no nuke it, so they can't attack us again. I pointed out that they never attacked us in the first place.

Then pointed out that the 9/11 hijackers came from a country that is *'s ally.

That shut him up.

[qwlauren35]

14. ...

You mean there are people out there who STILL don't get it? Yipes.

[dubykc]

13. We invaded their country, doesn't that make US the enemy?

[The Stranger]

15. Eventually, it will be you.

That is the lesson of history and the "Other."

17. Everybody except Bush's 'base'.
