The Cambridge police?
We couldn't shoot those Saudi piloted planes out of the sky with our
most advanced weapons systems.
We could, we just wouldn't. Remember the Iranian airliner we had no
problem dispatching?
The problem was that it happened too quickly to react in NY. We
weren't prepared.
The most frightening threat I've heard recently comes from the thought
that Cheney was trying to convince Bush to use US Military troops for
home soil police work.
Oh like the 15 US Army regulars (along with the Texas NG) who were at
Waco?
I thought they were all ATF agents. Never heard they were NG troops
or Army. That's ****ed up.
Is that what we're defending ourselves against?
We are defending ourselves against garden variety criminals that the
government seems powerless to stop but if we did find ourselves
invaded by a foreign power, the US would be a hard target.
Bear in mind it was the US who taught most of the "insurgents" we have
had trouble with for the last half century just about everything they
know when they were on "our side". (Vietnam, South America and the
current middle east cluster****)
