<<But their "handlers" don't volunteer for the missions>> So true...My hunch is that Bin Laden buddy may not be as brave as many of his followers think he is....HE WILL BE HUNTED DOWN and its just a matter of time until he's executed. I'm quite sure that his top management team isn't sleeping too well either. Who would want The Special Forces, The CIA (and their mercenaries -- who might be corrupt and appear to be on your team <G>), The British SAS, and the governments of most civilized countries -- all deployed in a global man-hunt that is commited to seek out and destroy Bin Laden and his followers...It may take some time BUT I have faith that they will be successful. I don't think Bin Laden effectively anticipated this kind of response to the September 11th events...There's no turning the clock back now....=)

<< ... and one doesn't hear about them recruiting any elderly, does one? >> I've never thought about that. Strap a bomb, full of nails, to a teenager, and tell him he is going to get 7 virgins, after his body is splattered, while killing other teens. Try to get a middle aged "sane" guy to do this!? << For the Palestinians to allow this to go on shows a brutal disregard for their own humanity. >> If they have no regard for them own humanity, what regard could they have for others?

saw similar show on CNN of suicide bombers in Lebanon, surviving families receive welfare checks Hezbollah takes care of its own well presented position of dealing with enemy who possesses extraordinarily superior technology and weaponry "they have bombs with accuracy that fall from the sky we have bombs with accuracy that are placed by people we have deaths, you have deaths" makes sense, just different value systems again I was surprised how much Beirut had been rebuilt / jim
