9/11 came and went without much fanfare. I wonder why that is. Far less
people were killed at Pearl Harbor, but the outrage was much more. I thought it was sad that so many have forgotten so soon, so many think it was a conspiracy from within, and that we don't have to worry about future terrorism. We are all so safe now that terrorism has been removed from the vocabulary. Steve |

I guess it should cause more outrage...considering the US Govt. slaughtered its own citizens....... |

Unfortunately the current administration always takes the blame for whatever happens (attacks, recessions or whatever) so we are still waiting to see how long we stay safe. I would ve very happy in Obama gets through his term with no bad things happening ... but I am only thinking out for my own good fortune. Anyone who feels any other way is a moron. I have no doubt you feel this way, but some like Cheney and some on Fox would be quite happy to see us attacked. They are certainly morons by your definition and mine. -- Nom=de=Plume |

And, I've not caught bubonic plague either! -- John H You're missing the point! When Bush was president, you and other righties made frequent comments about how safe he was keeping us because we hadn't had an attack since 9/11. So it stands that Obama is doing a great job at it too. I made several comments about how lame that reasoning was. Oh my goodness. You may be right again, although I can't remember *ever* uttering a comment about how safe Bush was keeping us. Perhaps you could find even *one* example of such? And, I've done nothing *but* agree that 'Bama is doing a super job at keeping us safe from man made disasters. What the hell more do you want? Yeah, me either but don't let that stop anybody from stereotyping us, especially a representative of "the tolerant party"...;) -- Wafa free since 2009 |

Let's hope Obama doesn't break that record but the worst days of the "good war" are on Obama's watch. I still am not sure why we are there. http://icasualties.org/oef/ I don't have a good feeling about increasing troop strength at this point.

... He is talking about when Sudan offered up Bin Laden and Clinton didn't know what we could charge him with so he didn't act. Personally I think we should have just sent a team of Africans (with plausible deniability to the US) in there to shoot him in the head but I may be too pragmatic. I recall something like that.. I don't have a big argument against finishing him off. -- Nom=de=Plume |

The interesting thing to me was said on Anderson Cooper the other night from Afghanistan. It turns out we don't even think Bin Laden is there anymore and that the Taliban has absolutely no global aspirations. Their connection to Al Queda is tenuous at best. I thought it was pretty clear that bin laden is in Pakistan. He left Tora Bora, right... -- Nom=de=Plume |

Maybe you mean Bosnia? -- Nom=de=Plume Saddam said about 20,000 died in the "no fly zone" bombings. We denied it but we really didn't have any way to prove him wrong. We were shooting missiles into residential areas to suppress Iraqi radar sites on a pretty regular basis. I have to believe some people died, even if it was just radar operators. I understand Saddam put his people at risk by locating these sites in residential areas but we still shot at them. At a certain point you have to admit these were still acts of war. That is why I say Iraq is an 18 year war, spanning 4 presidents now. That is the kind of record you expects out of 14th century European monarchies I wouldn't believe Saddam on most anything. He actually lied about the WMDs, I guess mostly to keep the Iranians at bay. -- Nom=de=Plume |
