A Generous offer for Al-Qaida The US air force has been hitting Al-Qaida terrorist training camps with massive attack from heavy bombers. Fortunately I have never been on the receiving end of a strike from a B-52, B-1, or B-2 but I have a fair amount of knowledge as to the kind of devastation that such attacks using both 500lb. "dumb iron" bombs and cluster bombs can cause. Most of the people in those camps probably left before the attacks started (and those that tarried are probably beyond any help) but now they have a problem. They don't have any good training grounds left. Sure they could train in anywhere or rebuild the camps, but I feel that at times like these a great nation like the United States should show its generosity. I propose that we offer Al-Qaida and the Taliban use of our National Training Center in Ft. Irwin. There they could conduct joint live fire training exercises with American units. If they are nostalgic for the good old days of fighting the Soviets we can make available units that are trained in Soviet tactics to enhance their training experience. irwin.army.mil fas.org www-tradoc.army.mil Tim
