Doug - I think this event has trasncended just about everything and people have to talk it through, yell it through, and hopefully think it through: I read that hospitals in the UK have now been put on 'Red Alert' in case of a terrorist event which will cost lives 'in the thousands'. Whether this is fearmongering one can't tell. Very possibly. But panicking the people can have dire consequences - what happens when the next bomb goes off in London? Will there be general relief when it's discovered that it's <<only>> an IRA attack?

Doug. I read all of your posts here and some elsewhere and have always found them to be informative and due to your writing style on this thread I have found them to be entertaining as well. I no you will not care that I am very surprised at your defence of those posters on this thread who have openly made a mockery of things like Veterans, the hero's at the Trade Center and just plane people who are angry at having over 6000 of their country men murdered. I have always felt that aside from your entertaining way of posting you are an intelligent person so you would know that those who would do harm to our countries need and depend on people like those who mock and belittle any efforts by Gov.s or single persons to stop them. You have condemned a poster on this thread for having a list of posters whom they do not agree with or whom they feel are enemies yet you have done the same thing in choosing certain posters to side with. SI has provided us all with the ability to ignore certain posters we do not wish to chat with. If I or you should put a fellow poster on ignore would that mean we are starting a list of posters we don't like or that we consider an enemy. And finally Doug at the end of your last post you said " and let this GPM thread stay on topic ". Do you remember how many times other posters have asked you to stay on topic or how many times you were off topic. I understand that you or those you have sided with will likely ridicule me daring to post like this but I guess that's there job. Like I said I know you could care less but I was surprised. Lorne

Doug, Your post was both timely and entertaining! By the way, I'm sure that refurbished crony bitch would be delighted to add two more names to her cherished list:- 1. Dalai Lama who asked Bush to waffle a bit (see rense.com); 2. the Pope (see excerpt below and the link) The Pope, in Central Asia, Urges Peace By MELINDA HENNEBERGER September 23, 2001 ASTANA, Kazakhstan, Sept. 22 — Pope John Paul II, who has been urging restraint in response to last week's terrorist attacks on the United States, obliquely spoke against war in his first remarks here this evening. "Controversies must be resolved not by recourse to arms but by peaceful means of negotiation and dialogue," the pope said during a welcoming ceremony, in remarks praising Kazakhstan for closing a nuclear site here and for banning all atomic testing after gaining independence from the former Soviet Union 10 years ago. "I can only encourage this type of commitment," he said in Russian.
