Boys and Girls, It's Pretty Obvious
Which countries/groups want Kerry to win:
China
Osama Bin Laden
Yassar Arafat
Kim Jong Il
Boys and girls, these aren't the kind of people we want to look up to. This is a group of thugs and dictators who would like nothing more than to revive the appeasement politics of the 1990's by the Clinton Administration (and to a point Bush Sr. as well).
Do yourself and this country a favor; make these guys nervous for another four years.

My ass OBL wants Kerry.... Bush is the best thing that's happened to OBL's recruiting and fundraising arm ever.

It might have been, but anything that we did over there would have driven up recruitment rates no matter who the president was.
Right now, the best thing for OBL would be a Kerry administration. He would reengage discussion a'la Clinton and would treat terrorism as a criminal problem rather than a national security issue.

And, in actuality, it's neither. It's a symptom of a clinically flawed foreign policy that has been plaguing our country since the end of WWII.
So long as we support Israel, nobody over there will like us, and they'll have perfectly legitimate reasons for not liking us.

What's wrong with supporting Israel? Where should Jews live seeing as how they have been kicked out of every predominately Arab country since 1900? Should we push for the “right of return� for those people back to those areas of Libya, Iraq, Syria, and Saudi Arabia?

I'm saying basically that "Israel" is a failed social experiment, and we should just back the fuck out of the whole arrangement as quick as possible.
We couldn't "right of return" the Jews into various countries. We can't force "right of return" for Palestineans.
But the reality is that the longer we prop them up, the longer there will be problems in the middle east, and the longer good chunks of the world will hate us and want to destroy us.
