"While I don't know what the market will do short term, I believe that the effect of this massive terrorist action will be a POSITIVE on world trade and harmony." You are insane. I will take a world without bombs going off, full of peace, over sabre rattling, war making, deficit spending, etc, any day. There is nothing good about this. Period. The minute people start saying War is good, I start thinking maybe the fact the DEC gold is over 300$ now means something.

David, you are confusing patriotism and determination with economic confidence. You are also grossly underestimating our enemies and wrongly assuming that conventional military action and superior weapons will vanquish them. Enemies that gladly die for their cause by the millions are not easy to defeat. We should be seriously addressing the Moslem world's grievances with us, and I am very much afraid we will not do it, at least not in time. We should also be seriously curtailing some of our internal freedoms, such as ASAP establishing a national fake-proof ID card and keeping much better track of all foreigners entering the country -- I am afraid we will not do this either. Sorry if this may not sound patriotic enough for you.
