#1 We seem to be moving towards a world divided between states who can (or make strenuous endeavours to) secure themselves against terrorism and those that dont/cant. The fact the secure states invent, make and feed people will make things difficult for those on the other side. All we have to do is fix the energy supply problem.

#2 Well, we had a terror threat here in LA. The Jihadi were supposed to go after a mall today. A mall near to the Federal Building in West Los Angeles (Fed Building is 1/2 mile from UCLA).

At 10:30PM on 4/29 all is still quiet.
Most shops are closed.

Not high enough kill number to get the 72 virgins.

#3 The Coalition nations of the willing serving in Iraq must face up to the facts. The adverse situation in Iraq is being triggered by Iran & Syria, plus jihadists agents from al-Qa'ida supported by Saudi Arabia. Ask yourselves what is the main source of financial assistance Iran is able to utilize to spread their Shi'ite version of jihad to Iraq, Afghanistan, to rats such as Hamas & Hizballah? Iranian OPEC oil is that source of funding, just as Saddam's exported OPEC oil was his the tool of terror against Israel, war with Iran and his invasion of Kuwait. Cut the source off and reduce the enemy's capabilities to wage jihad. Sooner or later, as with Nazi Germany & Japan, American and her true allies will for forced to confront the enemies of freedom.

#4 Mark, I think we already realize this. And by we, I mean most of the population, as well as the administration. But, we have a fifth column here in this country who want to see us fail, to lose in Iraq and elsewhere. They are pinning their hopes on a Kerry victory. And until after the elections in November, while this contest is in doubt, the others are going to have to wait.

I know it sucks, but these modern Democrats do not believe politics stop at the water's edge any more. So they are attacking the administration on the war, and giving hope, if not aid and comfort to the enemy.

I don't think most liberals and lefties realize the full implication of what they are doing. That to the jihadis, a communist, Marxist, Socialist or what have you that are protesting the war, are just as kaffir as the rest of us who support it. And will be just as dead if these guys succeed. I really don't think they get that, or even would believe it.

#5 Ben, How right you are. The Democrats in the country have the blood of American soldiers on their hands. Hillary Clinton slams the President to the Arab news, then threatens MSNBC about running with the story. Treason comes to mind. First, she claims she never gave an interview, then when caught red-handed, she still denies, then finally says, who cares? Oh gee, she lied. Surprise, surprise. Ted Kennedy, Robert Byrd, Bob Kerrey, John Kerry...They are so hateful towards this administration. Jamie Gorelick and the 9/11 commission...what a joke. After hearing and seeing what has been going on with this mess, it seems clear that one of the best deterants to another 9/11 is to make sure the Democrats never get to sit in the White House again. Boston should save money on Homeland Security this year for the Dem convention. After all, the Dems have been doing the enemy's work very well.
