Hi chooseanother; Re eagle and bear embracing &c. One of the things I noticed in the reaction of the Chinese is that they effectively closed their borders: China Bans Muslim/Arab Passengers newsmax.com This is an indication that the terrorists horribly overplayed their hand. The objective of ObL's terrorism, which is a classic tactic of weakness, is to either cause the West to pull out of the Middle East (which has clearly failed), or possibly alternatively, to cause the West to react with such force that the Muslim countries are united (which appears to be failing). -- Carl
