I don't buy it. We would survive and perhaps be stronger in the very
long run.

In whose lifetime? Do you invest in the market, Ganz? Do you honestly
believe there would be anything left for your retirement following such an
attack? If so, invest away, and good luck.

What if your investments were in Clean up type companies, radation
detection companys, body bag mfgrs, coffin mfgrs, construction,
lumber, bricks, glass ect.

I think you underestimate the American people Max. You need to drive
across country and look at the almost unlimited supply of resources.
If Americans all got involved and cared like they did in WWII this
great nation can overcome anything.

Like that jap said "I fear all we have done is awaken an angry giant"

We are on the terrorist's like chickens on a june bug. They are very
busy trying not to get killed right now. Lets keep up the pressure.

It's easy to get sucker punched, its stupid to get sucker punched
twice.

If you really believe your statement (above) why not supply al Qaeda with a
nuke or three to *strengthen* the US in the long run?

Maxy, terrorism can't win by definition.

We all seem to be having a problem defining "win." But be rest assured
that
terrorism can destroy. A one megaton nuke set off in NYC or Washington,
DC,
with substantial damage to the infrastructure (not to mention the
population) could put this country in a depression so deep it
conceivably
could not recover. The stock markets would collapse and commerce would
grind to a near-standstill. You may not call that a "win," but I'll bet
bin
Laden might.
