If we lose the War on Terror will we be speaking Arabic?

Question

I heard some GOP delegate from the OKC say that. Wondering if anybody else thinks the same way.

Answer 1

No.  I don't think losing the war on terror means Arabs invade the US.  I'm not even sure what losing that war means.

Answer 2

Only if you want to speak Arabic. Learning ANY foreign language is not a bad idea for any student.

Answer 3

I'm somehow unsurprised that a GOP delegate would utter such nonsense.  Terrorism is, by definition, not a conventional war, but rather a tactic of escalating fear and violence against a nation or ideology with the aim of forcing it to change course.  Amusing that such is the intellect of the GOP delegates, though, hmmm?

Answer 4

No not at all, and to the above post, we wouldn't be speaking German if we lost WW2, but France probably would. Terrorists goals aren't to invade the U.S and conquer us, they just want to compromise our way of life.

Answer 5

That is such and ignorant thing to say.  

Answer 6

honey. you don't win a war on terror.   the best you can do it keep it from knocking on your own door.
