"They" -- That is sooooo insensitive! Lumping them all in together like that. "Terrorist" is such a loaded term. I remember battles about what a "hacker" is... Seriously tho-- using shotgun terms does little but fuel the FUD. So long as it's "us against them", and the war drums beat, we shall know no peace. And I am *so* sick of this "looking weak" shit. Bush 2 really pushed that agenda. We are the flecking US of A, man! ( 'course, I've always known that real strength is doing things like saying "I was wrong" and shit like that. ) Real strength doesn't need to look strong, basically. (Quite often doesn't, in my experience.) We *are* Real Strength. Baddest Nation of the Bunch. We will literally destroy any who oppose us. The problem is actually getting real opposition (without getting into a nuclear/economic battle). Playing up all this "terrorist" shit is just a way of keeping the ever-lasting non-war running, straight out of the book "1984". Winning minds is less about blowing people to bits. Fighting a war IS about blowing people to bits. Please, PLEASE tell me we're not waging a war on "terror", o.k.? The idea is non-sense. Patently. We're very good at taking out "real" (in the sense of NOT some general, non-objective term like "terror") things, militarily. Let us have those, and say we're at a war with them, vs. this "terror" BULLSHIT. :-) My god. Here I am, my own damn government *spying* on me, invading my privacy, and disrespecting the basic tennets of my country/citizenship. -- and how, why? Blame ~them~. The Excuse.
