I lived in Libya and have worked in Saudi and can tell you that Arabs are a bunch of pussies... They are not only weak physically but spiritually as well...
Well in that case they must have already learned their lesson by listening to Bush's forceful speeches. What? Me worry? lets bring on the NFL!.

Maybe you are trying to type brave or show your confidence in our ability to do well. These are good and I applaud them. I just can't consider a group who would live and train for years, see what America has to offer, and yet fly right into a building as a bunch of pussies. I may try to consider them mad, or recless, or fanatic, but mostly I consider them a force to be reconned with, a force we will likely be confronted with in our stores, and businesses, and schools. We are not talking about a war against Egyptians, or Afganis, or Libians or Columbians. We are taling about a war against an enemy that does not tell us who they are. I shudder to think that this war will be declared over before the world as a whole declared terrorism to be an action with a consequence too high to pay.

Hmm. You are making a fundamental philosophical mistake.

Therefore, I say: Know your enemy and know yourself; in a hundred battles, you will never be defeated. When you are ignorant of the enemy but know yourself, your chances of winning or losing are equal. If ignorant both of your enemy and of yourself, you are sure to be defeated in every battle.
-Sun Tzu 2400 years ago

Whoa Nellie!! We need to join the war and end the scourge of terrorism no doubt but Arabs have a right to live in peace and freedom too. Many Arabs have been victimized by these acts as well....
