What should be the punishments handed out to those responsible for the deaths of nearly 3000 Americans.

Eventually there is going to be a reckoning for those who are responsible for the deaths of so many.
What do you believe should be done to those who are responsible. We claim to be a christian nation... how will we handle those who are guilty for so many dead.

I think first you have to prove criminal intent. Also, are we going to hold the earlier administrations accountable for not doing anything also?

If you are talking about Iraq & Afghanistan KIA, the enemy is to blame.

Since I'm sure you're talking about the radical muslim terrorists who orchestrated September 11th, I'd say we'll eventually catch up to them and kill them. Sounds like reckoning enough. As a christian nation, though, we can believe that once we kill them, God will determine their ultimate fate.

What we believe and what the truths are are likely worlds apart. We used to think the world was flat.... that was in teh goos ole Christian days before we were even as complex as to utilize witch hunts.

Send them to me please.


Personally........I'd like to see them all put in one of those midieval racks. You know the ones that hold your head and hands. Then put the racks at Ground Zero. Just like in those times where they put criminals on the town square. Then..........come what may.

Those are stocks. Racks are something else entirely.

Would we be able to hand out the same punishment to those who support and glorify those terrorists?

I never claimed to be a christian....

Does this then include those that supported and glorified the IRA?

Where does the fact that a convicted IRA bomber was chosen to lead a St Patricks day parade in New York state fit into this:

At least some people had the balls to stand against this.


How about your senator who supported the IRA and it's political wing Sinn Fien:

The ones who did the attacks are dead. Those who arranged it, there involvement would be hard to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt. That being said even if they are found guilty Id say the death penalty is what would make them feel glorified in their Gods eyes. I wouldnt want that. Let them die of old age in a prison. We have killed more of their innocent people then they killed of ours in 9/11. What should happen to those who did that?

Tonto said in a different thread that its all about perspective and he is right. Yes we lost alot of people but we have spent alot of time paying them back. GWB failed in his attack, he didnt get Bin Laden, its time to give up and slowly work our way out of there and bring our soilders home.

I do not dis-like our president, he is my president and I support him. However I do not support all his actions.

Well, Lincoln got his... I'm not sure about other US Presidents who sent young men to their deaths.

I think they got their punishment when they blew themselves up crashing a plane in the WTC, PA country side and the Pentagon.

That is what you meant, right?

I thought after doing that they were handed forty virgins.

Then again, I suppose that is punishment enough.

Solitary confinement in a room at body temperature, no windows, no clock (let him wonder endlessly just how long he has been there), a toilet, an attached shower room and the same food put into a trough from outside the cell by gaurds who he does not see. Absolutely no reading material, or entertainment, no correspondence with anyone, and no communication with even the guards or prison administrators, and he can never step foot outside the cell. Constant video monitoring to prevent suicide. He can eat the same food, drink water and stare at walls 24 hours a day until he dies of old age.

I know, too easy for the guy but i am just a big softy.

I worded it the way I did for a reason.. to see which side of the blame and punishment game people would fall down on.


Personally I think the leaders who sent the terrorists to this country... and are supposedly people of the book....and they do not believe in Christ other than as another prophet.. need to die as an eye for an eye..it is what they believe.

So.. We can have Muslim base jumping from a 1000 ft building with out a rig.. just like the hundreds who lept to their deaths from the WTC...... SPLAT

Then there were those who burned to death in very small offices with jet fuel burning all around them...

I think being burned to death slowly in that way would be a horrible way to go.. but they are the ones who already visited that on hundreds of Americans.

A little more horrible... would you not think....

And then there were those who were crushed as the floors of the WTC pancaked down floor after floor.....

A Room for crushing... kinda like the way the first terminator went out....

We have seen how our people are executed on the internet when caught by these same people...... Perhaps they NEED the most cruel and UNUSUAL punishments to help them realize that they are not going to win the world by being the worst they can be to other human beings.... then again.. perhaps we cant win with tactics like that either.


Now.. for those of you on the other side of the fence... does incompetence equal guilt in their sending off so many of our young people to foreign lands????
Since so many in the administration trumpets their holier than thou christianity and a supposed morality that is better than anyone else.....I will let GOD handle that in how they are judged.... it is GOD's place to judge how these people have not followed GOD's commandments.

But it is interesting that some of you on the right seem to feel that our leaders need protection for their actionsw.
