Funded (in part) from the US, based (in part) in the Irish Republic, armed and trained (in part) by the Libyans, shopping for arms in Florida, branching off into teaching Colombian terrorists how to kill policemen and convenient US personnel. What _does_ constitute "international" to you, Fred? By your standard, September 11 2001 was an all-domestic affair. -- When you have to kill a man, it costs nothing to be polite.

If there was ever the slightest doubt why the U.S. has not signed on to the Uropeen IKK, there exists none now. Not even a glimmer. International not Euopean. -- Jim Watt http://www.gibnet.com Not from my perspective. It's merely a continuation of the Uropeen Diplomacy model designed to hamstring the powerful and level the playing field for the has beens. That model is in failure mode and is no longer appropriate as is the U.N. The U.N. as an international forum for mediation has failed. It sucks up a tremendous amount of resources and provides a platform for the worlds despots with little to show for the effort; IOW, just more jawboning lawyers and politicians. I doubt the new world order will be as you have envisioned it. |

Well, since (at least originally) BAoR were the folks being rotated through Northern Ireland, this seems more like following the opposing military force back to their 'sanctuaries' and attacking them rather than international terrorism. England is not part of Ireland, and the extensive IRA terrorist campaign in that country, largely funded by Americans, in itself constitutes international terrorism. -- Jim Watt http://www.gibnet.com |
