<So dropping atom bombs on Japan was cowardly? > David, if CB's definition is used, even more cowardly than a suicide mission on a kindergarten because the suicide person would have to have the courage of their convictions whereas those who dropped the nukes on Hiroshima kindergartens could fly safely away. Yes, yes, I know, the civilian population of Hiroshima was 'unavoidable collateral damage'. I hope we don't soon have the first nuclear war of the 21st century. The last one was over half a century ago [the USA won it]. I wonder if all nukes are accounted for around the world. I wonder if Osama has used funding from the USA to buy a couple of Pakistani nukes from friendly Islamic buddies who seem happy to give him a lot of support and he has shipped these to the USA perhaps a year ago. Osama does seem excessively confident to me. Almost smug. Which is not the sort of manner I'd expect from somebody scuttling for his life. He seems very happy to be publicized. He is certainly not faceless, senseless or cowardly in any normal use of English. I think his ambition has all along been to take over Saudi Arabia. I don't believe his family has disowned him. I think they are the next Saudi Arabian royal family in waiting. Saudi Arabia will be renamed Ladenland and the oil will flow to the Great Satan and the US$ will fund Islamic overthrow of secular states around the Moslem world. I hope the USA has their bases in Pakistan well-defended. I'm certain that the Islamic Jihadists will see them as having been lured into a trap. Mq PS: My rant against USA funding of terrorists here - many Americans have been funding terrorism for a long time. They have helped build up the culture of terrorism so popular around the world in recent decades. I am hopeful that some of them were in the WTC: Message 16403305
