Name some of the ways the Bush administration paralells McCarthyism in the 50's or the USSR in the 80's, or the Jihad religious run gov't in the mideast currently?
This would be a long and involved post. If I had reading materials/summaries, etc. in front of me, I would handle it, but I'm not down for that shit. This sounds alot like homework to me, and if so you need to handle it.
However unlike the 50's we were actually attacked. maby not by a nation but by a terroist cell. therefore making people realize that an enemy is a real threat and we can be attacked.
and it is even worse because if some terrorists attack us we have to go out and find them which isnt easy. it isnt like another country where we know where they are and how to get them.
I think the red scare was more understandable cause Russia was very powerful and could have easily nuked us. Im not trying to say we shouldnt worry about the terrorists, but their really isnt a way to defend america against single individuals who live on a planet with 5 billion people

Exactly. So what does the Gush administration do? They cook up a fake war on phony pretenses against false terrorists, inflaming the arab world against the US. 80% of people in Muslim countries now dislike or hate the US. Bush Cheney 04.
