make your choices carefully. Because if you choose to call yourself our enemy, you stand a good chance of facing the terrible results that enemies of ours face. Pretty much sums up my feelings on the matter... There's a report of 5,000 Paskistanis/refugee Afghanis heading into Afghanistan to wage "Jihad"... I would say that's the biggest mistake of their lives. I really don't want to wage war against the muslim world, but if they choose to become our enemies and throw their lot in with our enemies, they will share our enemy's fate. And this war will become more uglier than anything we've seen since WWII... Fortunately, none of these countries are economic powerhouses capable of building weaponry that can compete against ours. But we should have no illusions about the substantial casualties our folks will suffer, as well as inflict, waging this war. We'll have to see if Bush opts to use the same language as McCain. Because it's a very clear message that THEY have the choice whether to become our enemies, rather than their claiming we've declared war on them. Hawk
