There are …
There are Christians, and people of other non-Islamic beliefs, living in Iran, Iraq, etc. They are now starting to leave at steadily increasing rate SINCE 2003. I wonder why this is? Could it be that our actions in the region generate blowback?

He is a preacher, …
He is a preacher, just like Clinton is an attorney, just like Bush is an oil man. Do you think that a person takes on greater intelligence or understanding after being elected to public office?

The CIA intel did …
The CIA intel did not show Saddam to have WMD’s. Besides, if CIA agents had intentionally misinformed about WMD’s, it would been done to start the invasion. Correct? Any CIA intel, then, that goes counter to this must be considered by any anti-war argument.

Is this the same …
Is this the same CIA that told president Bush that the WMD case against Iraq was a “slam dunk”? While I agree that they are mad at our support of Israel and want Israel 100% gone although if we didn’t support Israel, we would still have terrorist issues. There are terrorist attacks all the time on nations that don’t support Israel. They attack what is in their way and Huckabee knows that. What does an Arkansas preacher have to do with this? Huckabee as Governor is what he ran on.

That’s interesting. …
That’s interesting. I don’t remember him ever using the word caliphate. I do, however, remember the quote of Khalid Sheik Mohammed on page 175 of the 9/11 commission report, in which he cites our support of Israel as the motivator behind the aggression. Sorry, I will take the CIA and FBI experts’ analysis of over that of an Arkansas preacher every time.

Your understanding …
Your understanding of Huckabee’s position is false.

Huckabee says they attack because their religion calls for a world in which every nation is run by a caliphate. The nation-state leadership and the religious leadership must be 1 under their system. That is why no other religions are allowed in Muslim run nations.

You are right though, it isn’t because we are free or Christian that they want us dead, it’s because we stand in their way just like they kill moderate Muslims in their way too.

Mike Huckabee …
Mike Huckabee states that the terrorists attack us because of our Christian beliefs, and because we are free. This is not why they are attacking us. They attack us because of our presence in the Middle East, and because of our military support of Israel. Please read/Google Michael Scheuer, CIA expert on bin Laden.

What does Huckabee …
What does Huckabee see as the root cause of terrorism? I haven’t heard this one.
