Actually, there were rumors on the floor that a reason for the move yesterday was the rumor that U.S. is very close to a military offensive in afghanistan. In other words, there are rumors we are close to finally going over there and taking care of some business. I know I for one wouldn't mind seeing it....it is inevitable. The terrorists are a cancer and the cancer must be stopped. I think americans are scared because they know this is not going to be like any conventional war or skirmish we have never fought....I also think, and I think this way because i think this way<gggg>, many people are ready to see us drop some bombs, kick some butt...it will mean we are doing something, getting somewhere. The war on terrorism is on. Nothing we can do about it. Wearent going to hear alot about this "war", as much will be done quietly and silently with no press, but we will of course know if our f16's are taking out some terrorist camps, and I think when we see that happening, it will be a slight sigh of release by alot of people and maybe help restore some confidence on the good ole U.S. of A.

Just some thoughts, but I think americans are ready for action to be taken that they can see and relate to.
