    International terror has been on the increase for decades.

    What will it take to stop (or at least greatly reduce) the terror networks around the world?

    Rods of iron are no match for NBC weapons. He'd better have more than that.

    Total cooperation by the civilized world to destroy their funding networks and to hold those organizations and governments who assist them accountable for doing so.

    Does accountability include execution?

    Then you are and always have been my enemy and the enemy of my country, our way of life, and our freedom.

    Sad.

    I wouldn't have thought of you being a supporter of terrorism.

    It will take...

    • the government of the United States to close their bases in 130 of 180 countries and get out of the business of other nation-states.
    • a return of the same entity to constitutional government and a discontinuation of globalism.
    • a return to a monetary system based on precious metals as the constitution calls for.
    • the prosecution of international bankers for crimes against America and the world and impeachment of the folks that are working for them.
    • a couple people groups in the Middle East to play nice with each other as they once did, prior to the creation and programs of the United Nations.
    • the dismantling of the wicked United Nations.

    Since none of the above will likely come to pass...I'd say LadyEagle's answer is the winner.

    Of course I'm not Bill and I look forward to his response but here's a couple examples of one man's patriot being another man's terrorist:

    -----

    John Adams was considered by many to be a patriot. He said the following:

    "The moment the idea is admitted into society that property is not as sacred as the law of God, and that there is not a force of law and public justice to protect it, anarchy and tyranny commence."​

    Samuel Adams wasl considered by many to be a patriot. He said:

    "Among the natural rights of the colonists are these: first, a right to life; secondly, to liberty; thirdly to property; together with the right to support and defend them in the best manner they can."​

    A lack of property rights or the abolishment of those rights were once considered to be communistic, as it is plank 1 of the communist manifesto.

    Yet, according to the Terrorism and Security Awareness Orientation for [Virginia] State Employees (pg 4) persons who are "Property Rights Activists" are considered to be part of domestic terrorist organizations.

    -----

    A more famous example is Osama Bin Laden. When he was with the Afghani mujahadeen fighting against the Soviets he and his like were called "freedom fighters" by the American press. That kind of sounds patriotic no? Then, when he allegedly attacks America he is considered to be a terrorist.

    -----

    When a foreign entity invaded Iraq, the people in Iraq that defended against the incursion were considered terrorists or insurgents.

    If a foreign entity invaded the United States and its people defended against the incursion what would the people of the United States be called? I suspect it depends on the perspective of the one using the term.

    Only about half the American colonists supported the American Revolution (which was actually a civil war).


    >a return to a monetary system based on precious metals as the constitution calls for.

    Return to the days when half the working class lived in poverty and the middle class was maybe 15% and had live in servants? No thanks.

    >the prosecution of international bankers for crimes against America

    You invent laws!
