Event_Horizon

Yeah.. ha ha ^^ thanks for the unnecessary jab. I was just an Analyst who followed the money as part of GWOT as part of a NSC / JTF tasking.  Anyway... whatever.  I am retired and just a teacher now.

Borna,

If it was me to rank the top five right now?  Here it is:

1. USA

2. Russia

3. UK

4. France

5. China (mainly because of pure human manpower and not capability)

-----------

6. Germany

7. India

8. Turkey

9. South Korea

10. Japan

Borna,

You are on the right track, but there are some things the intel community would disagree with.  China is not the second most powerful country in the world.  Far from it... their Hyperglide Delivery Vehicle has not passed one test.

I cannot say more as it is still classified, but China poses ZERO threat to the US except through economic and cyber warfare.  NK they could handle.  China is a ****hole of a country whose normal citizen makes about $3 dollars a day.

Saints and Strangers is pretty good, but FYI all it is on National Geo Channel not A&E.

^^ This cannot be serious....

It's porous because... we have had a tremendous number of successful terrorist attacks over the last five years spurred by refugees or immigrants?

 

Why do you think it's porous?

This cannot be a serious question Mr. Mushroom.  I mean really?   You missed this I think:  http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory/things-syrian-refugees-vetting-process-35297847

These are the same guys that keep voting down veteran benefits, right?

I guess it's better PR in the long run that they don't assist refugees while they're actively ****ing over Americans who have sacrificed for this country.

Apples and Oranges Bang... C'mon man....  really?

I am simply telling the truth Hersh but you can't see it for some reason.  You certainly are not more informed than Congress and our Intel Agencies and the Intel Agencies around the world... so keep making fun of me and propagate your liberal agenda.  I realize the Congressional vote rubs a lot of you the wrong way, but they know things you do not.

Expand the screening process.

No idea what you are talking about but you still haven't answered my questions.

I don't have to.  The US Congress already has answered your naive question sir.

The director of the FBI disagrees with you.

LoL!  The Director of the FBI serves at the President's pleasure.  He is a puppet.  Congress disagrees with you and every other major world government.

Since I did not say that, it appears you played the fool.

Both of ya

Yes, it does answer the question perfectly.  The current system was porous hence the action today by Congress sir.

Hersh...

This is intensely naive Hersh (especially your first paragraph).  Tshile nailed it, but the liberal thinking up in here just refuses to see the truth of the matter as it relates to the absolute danger it brings upon the United States to let these folks inside without being properly vetted.

The Congress agrees across the aisle.  They are informed.  You are not so much sir.  With respect...

^^ AMEN!  Informed people make informed decisions.

Guys, Event_Horizon is a troll. He said he wanted to see a genocide of Muslims in the Middle East in the Paris thread. Put him on ignore and move on.

No, I did not.  

It does. No doubt. You're turning your back on one of the key tennants of the faith.

And many others Sir

^^ Good advice.  Always buy the parts yourself.  I normally do all the work myself, but if it is over my head an "after-hours" guy works.

Believe what you want. You're entitled to it. But know this, I do what I do because my Savior died for me and took my sin and wrath upon Himself. So when I have a chance to show mercy and love, like He showed me (the worst of sinners), I do it. My safety doesn't factor in. Peace.

I respect that but I still think you are full of ****.

Wait I thought you were "out"????

I am.  I apologize to the liberal civics party going on in here.  I just do not see the world in rainbows and unicorn utopia as many of you obviously do.

Plus, I was defending myself a bit.  I should have known better.

It's funny when the far right have convinced themselves they are moderates. 

As compared to?  um ... you guys in here?  O well.  I guess I am far right for seeing the world for what it is.

I would gladly take a family in. It would be tight for sure and we would have to convert my study into a bedroom, but yeah, I'd do it for folks fleeing ISIS.

That's not always the case and the same could be said for the other side too. Let's not pretend the Left is innocent of the same thing.

Sorry, I do not believe you for a second and think you are just trying to make new liberal friends after the some of the things you post.

I wouldn't take any darn nonsense into my home. EVER. Period.  Guess that makes me a bad Catholic, but I will live to see next Christmas and keep my family safe.

Let em pile on me steve... it's funny and so uninformed.  I stated my case, but I am not responding to liberal propaganda here that will be the end of us all.

There is not even a moderate road here with some of these guys.  If you have to ask?  Yeah YOU!  

Just let them make fun of me until the next huge attack in the UK, France, Russia, Germany, or our own country.

FO4 is a real fun game until we play it in real life... 

You guys have at it... I don't even care with your obtuse agenda.  So, I am out.  It is really hard to have any conversation here other than films, TV, and games... certainly not a football conversation.

Edit: or a meaningful one.

Information attacks happen everyday on our country numbering in the thousands.  We need to do more and partner with other nation-states.

No Beal, I am informed

Me naive?  Nah.  We need more intelligence gathering and fusion.  We should vastly expand the Patriot Act  or other new legislation for collection and processing.  We should also partner more than ever with foreign governments and share information.

Information is our most important war.
