The Big "If"

Osama Bin Laden Tape Threatens U.S. States Not to Vote for Bush

The Islamist website Al-Qal'a explained what this sentence meant: "This message was a warning to every U.S. state separately. When he [Osama Bin Laden] said, 'Every state will be determining its own security, and will be responsible for its choice,' it means that any U.S. state that will choose to vote for the white thug Bush as president has chosen to fight us, and we will consider it our enemy, and any state that will vote against Bush has chosen to make peace with us, and we will not characterize it as an enemy. By this characterization, Sheikh Osama wants to drive a wedge in the American body, to weaken it, and he wants to divide the American people itself between enemies of Islam and the Muslims, and those who fight for us, so that he doesn't treat all American people as if they're the same.

How do you vote for Kerry after that? Every American must stand together and vote for Bush! If America must go down, let it go down fighting and not slouching away with it's tail between it's legs. We must be united against our common enemy, defeat them now! Bicker later! I can't believe this is the United States of America with all its history of bravery and standing up for truth, justice and the American way. You just throw that away and vote for someone who should have been (and would have been during and before WWII) convicted of treason against this country? President?!

The alien who is among you shall rise higher and higher above you, and you shall come down lower and lower.  He shall lend to you, but you shall not lend to him; he shall be the head, and you shall be the tail. Deuteronomy 28:43-44

It doesn't have to be that way.

The Lord will open to you His good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand. You shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. And the Lord will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, and are careful to observe them. Deuteronomy 28:12-13

If only.
