don't be so naive...the biggest terrorist attack we ever suffered prior to yesterday was by Americans. but that was not the thrust of my comments...my point is simply to point out this one thing. 10 years ago we launched a huge military strike to protect the citizens of kuwait from an unprovoked attack...today we no longer have the capability to launch even 1/2 of those forces to protect ourselves. that degradation of our forces is unacceptable to me...my comments are not new...i have been writing about this for years.
