Caution should be exercised by all, but I firmly believe that the reason this diabolical WTC plot succeeded was due to the failures in our system, and NOT due to the superior intelligence of Osama bin Laden's group of terrorists. I am simply not willing to give them that much credit.
He (and the Taliban) survives (for now, anyways) by imposing himself on a nation that is too weak to fight him. If I were one of these suicide bombers and had any intelligence at all, the first thing I would be asking myself is that if "paradise" is a guarantee, why isn't Osama bin Laden willing to go on a suicide mission? That in itself tells me that these people simply are not that smart.
They got in because our system(s) failed. Our friend (not) Mr. Clinton depleted our intelligence and technology (that which he didn't hand over to the terrorists on a silver platter) failed. The way to keep terrorism away from US soil is to repair our own faults, revoke all visas (make them reapply), STOP GIVING THESE NON-AMERICAN VISITORS THE SAME RIGHTS AS AMERICANS, and throw their A**es out if we even suspect they post a threat.
I support our President 100% and have the patience of Job when it comes to dealing with these people. Some people think that if we don't start bombing the crap out of Afghanistan NOW that it will only happen again. Well people, here is a news flash...it is going to happen again anyway, until we secure our own country. Bombing Afghanistan will only be bouncing the rocks. I think our president put it best when he said that "we don't need to fire a two million dollar missle into a twenty dollar tent to hit a camel in the butt" There is a lot to be said for keeping Bin Laden on the run...the longer he stays that way, the weaker he will become and the easier he will be to take out.
As always, I have a strong opinion about this, lol.
Tan is fading, and reality came crashing down on me when I came back from a lovely vacation. But I am alive and healthy and certainly thankful to be here. Any problems in my life are miniscule in comparisson to those of our friends in NYC and DC. Keep them in your prayers, and SHOP TILL YOU DROP FOR THE GOOD OF THE NATION!!
