The Iraq War alone will lend credibility (in their eyes) to that position for years to come. Everything they do is a cry for help in the only voice they think will be heard, and everything we do to stop them is a merciless, imperialistic slaughter. I should hope that there is a threshold beyond which they will believe we're NOT deserving, but therein lies the problem. In order to rally the support of the nay sayers, we have to allow the very thing we're trying to prevent. <BR/><BR/>Great.Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10363879464584026428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041404668013008872.post-55899273803888797642008-07-24T08:55:00.000-07:002008-07-24T08:55:00.000-07:00You little thief! ha.Have a great day Rodger.

And...Those are some really serious threats, Roger. And judging by the terror cells that have been intercepted in the past, there is every likelihood that terror attacks are on the horizon. This is the new world we live in. You're absolutely right that we can't let it intimidate us but that we stand ready to fight and hold fast to the things that made us strong in the first place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5041404668013008872.post-84501581730384943582008-07-24T02:01:00.000-07:002008-07-24T02:01:00.000-07:00For every terrorist attack that is successful, 10 ...For every terrorist attack that is successful, 10 are not. Those are the statistics that the government doesn't readily tell people. When the alert is elevated it isn't because the government want to scare people, but to warn them and also to send a message to the terrorists. The same thing was done during the Cold War. The Defcom level was lowered and raised in a message to the Soviets. It worked then and it works now.<BR/><BR/>Groups like Targeted Actionable Monitoring Center are staffed by some of the best people in the business. These men and women know exactly what they are talking about and when they issue a warning, I take note of it. It is a shame that the best and brightest of the US Intelligence communities are leaving the government for the private sector. The pay is better and they don't have to play the politic games that one needs to do in government service.Findalishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02881549378886491540noreply@blogger.com
