no offense -- seems more of stretch than the good ole war-for-profit motivation. Terrorism is real -- there are folks that feel like killing other people and lots of them; doesn't mean it's justified ... you'll have to sell your social justice stuff to someone else. I don't buy any of it. It's the war on terror that I differ with. First, how do you have a war with terrorists? (paint a target on yourself and invite them, I guess) Second, how can you be sure you have won? (don't have to win, just claim you are winning, and award a bunch of lucrative contracts to your friends ) Bush / Ashcroft simply scare people into accepting a stronger central government so they can do what they want. There will be no lasting peace in either Afganistan or Iraq as a result of our actions. This guy with the boxcutters on the planes?? -- this after how many billions have been lavished on airport security and it was federalized ... No, it's not the haves against the have nots, IMO. It's stupidity against reason. It's big-daddy socialism against the republic -- with supposed republicans working faster and more furious than demohacks to destroy our freedoms and our economy in one blow. It was JFK who uttered this foolishness, "ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country." Now we have such socialist doubletalk brought to its highest artform. "Homeland security", "operation Iraqi freedom". Democrats didn't know how to take welfare / income transfer to the next logical step -- "nation-building" -- the neo-cons oughta be run out the country.
