And if you look at Hezbollah they're basically a propaganda and nation building organization that also has a healthy military wing. The US and Israel should learn a thing or 2 from that: 1.) Create the best equipped, best trained urban combat troops on the planet. 2.) Create a new branch of the State Department for nation building. They shouldn't be part of the Defense Department. Open offices in Arab countries to give micro-loans, hire locals, etc 3.) Rebuild the State Department and hire some people that know Arabic for gosh sakes. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 & MX7 integration & create powerful cross-platform RIAs http:http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;56760587;14748456;a?http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=LVNU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:224848 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.5
