"Are you getting a clearer picture on where I stand vis a vis insane, murdering terrorists, yet? "

Yes I do and I agree - terrorists should be stopped and in my opinion, that means killing them.

I don't believe in killing entire groups of people to get to the terrorists or invading countries to get to them. Remember, these nations we're so casually talking about hitting have weapons of mass destruction (nuclear/biological and chemical) - I don't believe for an instant there will any restraint in using them on their part.

My greatest fear is a Desert Storm-type buildup and assault ending in an escalation into the use of these weapons. Once we've crossed that threshold, there's no hope for any of us. I'm not willing to support that type of irrational "let's get revenge at all costs" attitude. I will support anything sort of that though...

By the way - gas chamber is too good for terrorists. Let's toss them into general population at San Quentin or something.....
