I hadn't even read Peg's post when I posted that either.
I have always been concerned about that.
People forget history all too often. It's all about how much people care and what they are willing to sacrifice.
This bunch of crazies are just thrilled to give up their lives. They are religious fanatics.
I would never imply our Founding Fathers were as insane as these crazies are, but we used the only tactics we could, attack and run, surprise and run. That took 6 years before the British decided it wasn't worth the trouble...
Depends on how dedicated these fanatics are, my guess is the American people are not as patient with their sons and daughters lives as the British were. Especially with a war of choice. Aren't you Canadian? Are your countrymen helping us? Are they risking their sons and daughters?
