Reality is reality. I could speak for days and days on this, but tho the spirit is willing, the flesh is weak. For a the armchair warriors and politicians out there; von Clauswitz Sun Tzu Miamato Musashi Machiavelli Churchill is a good start.......... Here is the news, tho... Understand what you are fighting and what the war is..... If you concern yourself with world opinion whatsoever, if you shrink from slaughtering women; children; animals; desolating countries; and men (in that rough order) ; you might re-consider whether surgical strikes are the vogue... I am not my brother's keeper; but if you truely think you are; start by telling your best friend's wife about his fucking around on her.....or the obverse (if true), tell the people at work that they are fucking idiots, but never fear; you will hep them to the collective wisdom......and so on..... Think globally, but act locally........ If bin Lauden is guilty (and I really don't give a fuck if he is or isn't) then put your money where your mouth is......I will find him, you finance it.......I will bring him to you. Of course we can walk away from the middle east imbriglio, christ, it is not like we haven't done it anywhere on the globe before, yet those countries still stand. Unless you know what the outcome is, there is no sense starting a war on terrorism, unless you are willing to do whatever it takes......WHATEVER IT TAKES!!!!!!!!!!!! To remove the threat. So while fighting for your "freedom"........ consider the freedoms you have freely and frivolously given away. At least now, Cheney has shot somebody, so there is one AND ONLY ONE warmonger in the administration with combat experience, who can tell you if a quail is worth it......... So in concrete terms; then: What benefit is accrued by ME AND MY POSTERITY to fuck around in Afganistan and Iraq? Revenge? OK, If I can get it I am your boy, I will kiss your ass on main street and give you an hour to draw a crowd. Kill bin Lauden and anyone who has any taint of him, innocent or not, then I have revenge. I cannot stop terrorism, nor can you. We can make it so not worth their while.....kinda like handling it like the Russians did when we did the hostage shit in Iraq some years back. But we will not. We find it more what?????????? Aesthetically pleasing, to bring a year or two of our brand of democracy to the country of Iraq.......and they are buying into this IN A BIG WAY...........LOL. Typical american response (and british) to talk louder when people don't understand, 'cause we are sure they will get it. Ron
