The next attack (On Topic)

Both during the republican convention and the last half of October, I'm
going to try and fly so that the ATC call to land immediately will leave me
and my plane at a convenient airport.

It is good to know that America can fall back on patriots like you in
a pinch.

also work but the fallout would blow around and
poison us as well.


Jesus ... is this all you have to say? "the fallout would harm you as
well?"


There was intended to be a note of black humor and satire of extreme
positions there that didn't get through.

The greatest evil and tragedy in all of this has been the misery and
suffering it has brought to the innocent. That misery and suffering is the
primary fuel for the terrorist machine.

Come on Dan, I don't go far from home when fronts are moving through either.
I probably won't actually curtail my flying significantly but I'll factor
this into my planning just like I do the weather.

If you've followed my other posts you'll know that I'm one of the strongest
advocates of the idea that bending our way out of life is playing right into
the terrorists hands and encouraging more attacks. The best defense is to
appear as unaffected as a society by any attacks as we do by earthquakes and
hurricanes. The response should be where the rubber meets the road and our
government has substituted public relations driven inconveniencing of our
citizens for real action.

It's just like the beginning of the war on drugs. The first response was to
set up Coast Guard boats near all the major yachting centers to board and
inspect yachts. No drugs were going in and out of those ports, they were
all going in and out of small coves in Maine and bayous in the Gulf. The
Coast Guard didn't have the resources to cover all those places so they just
rousted rich, influential folks in their yachts so they would go back and
report that the Guard was on the job.

More than 90% of the world's
wars are being fought in Islamic countries. That says a lot about Islam.

Sure, CJ, in contrast with the blissful harmony in which Christian nations
have lived together for the past two millennia, or even the past century.

Quite honestly, I think that nuclear sterilization is an option that
should
be explored.

While you're planning your Final Solution, CJ, keep in mind that most of the
rest of the world, including much of the US, will side against you. So
you'll have to exterminate far more of us than just the Muslim portion of
the world's population. But perhaps that prospect appeals to you.

If we aren't to fight back, for fear of creating more terrorists, what are
we to do?


Sometimes "nothing" is the right answer. Sometimes, we must just accept that
the price of freedom is risk. Sure, our nation is a colander. But to seal it
up as tightly as would be necessary to stop terrorism would be to suffocate it.

The war is not with people - it is with ideas. But ideas are what we claim to
let free.

I am not convinced of the motivation. If we invaded Iraq because of
the oil, then where is the oil? Even more ridiculous is the argument
of people like Michael Moore who insist that we invaded Afghanistan
because of oil, despite the fact that Afghanistan has no oil, no
pipelines, and no significant production facilities.



What about the opium??

I suspect that the critics of the war may be using a lot of that.

You make several good points, Roger -- but I didn't seen any viable
alternatives in your post.

To get an idea of what we're up against, i suggest reading the following link:

They are not after us for what we do, but for what we are, and unless we are
willing to put Brittany Spears in a Burka and bow toward Mecca 5 times a day,
there isn[t going to be peace short of victory.

If she does not stop singing then this will not help very much. :-)
