Sounds like something straight out of 1984, creating fear about an unknown enemy to help distract from the real enemy at home.

I've known this friend for a long time. His behavior just recently changed, within the last 6 months.
I think it may be possible that your friend is having a paranoid personality disorder because he seems to be preparing for a war.

Are you serious?? From a man who said " The future is not for those that insult the Prophet Mohammad" From the man who didn't attend the solidarity march in France against Islamic terrorist because it would look like he sided with the cartoonist and his depiction of Muhammad, instead he watched football. The man who is systematically dismantling our Military while ramping up all the so called Homeland security agencies against its own citizens. From the man who was instrumental in implementing the greatest scam on the American people in history with Obama care. From the man who has spent America into oblivion, spending more than all other presidents combined. From a man who through incompetence and arrogance is poking the eye of the Russian Bear, From a man who calls our Constitution a "Flawed Document." From a man who actually thinks disarming America's citizens is a good idea. From a man who has proved beyond any shadow of doubt that he is the most incompetent, deceptive, lying leader in American history who governs with Sunni Muslim undertones, but the most disturbing factor to our freedom as Americans is the supporters that has kept this administration in power... So to answer the question, A resounding NO!

Islamists are angry with America, angry with Britain, France, hey, they are angry that Pakistani girls want to go to school. Lets stop blaming Obama, he is a decent man and a family man and very popular in Britain/Eire. He is liberal, I agree, but this Islamist threat is beyond left and right ( though the left have to be watched closely as they pander to Islam for some weird logic). I would drop a bomb on Raqqa

No. Nothing I can do about it unless they attack me. Don't want Obama keeping me safe. Freedom for security is not a good trade.

Default Are you worried about Islamic terrorists attacking USA?

No, not worried one bit. Oh there will be attacks at some point but pretty doubtful in a city like mine, more likely in a big city at a very busy place. If they want to make a big statement it will take a big event.

I'd be more worried about the plans your government has for you.

You're looking in the wrong direction...

How many people were murdered in the USA today? About 40 is the average. How many were killed by Islamic terrorists today? I checked all the news feeds and it's zero today. So in your average month about 1200 are murdered and zero are killed by terrorists. Now, if you are afraid of the terrorists I strongly suggest that you never ever get into a vehicle. On average there are 92 killed each and every day on the roads. Are those of you who are afraid of terrorists afraid to get into a car? I doubt it and that says your fear of terror is illogical, paranoid and just plain goofiness.

I believe I said something very similar on this thread.

Not a war. He made that clear.
