War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few at the expense of the masses..... And so Raymond.. Who's racket is Osama Bin Laden running here? Is he merely a "front" for some group of conspiratorial Arabs? Bottom line, if you're going to claim that this war is tantamount to a "fraud", or an excuse to compromise civil rights, you have to assume that on the other side lurks just as great a conspiracy. Thus, you have to decide which one is the greater evil.. "our" conspiracy, or their's? Hawk
