I expect near zero impact on $400B in military spending
different enemy
same ineffective weapons used
preference for glitz and power in weapon arsenal
burokracy is the enemy within
boys with toys is the internal obstacle
for every Taliban killed, we paid $20M
we are now sitting ducks in Afghany

USGovt is fast going bankrupt
and currency markets have noticed our bleeding

Sears Tower is safe imho, as are all towers
Islamics managed to clear out several now
EmpireStBldg is half empty
Sears has top portion empty, doesnt it?

no, we are to be hit where we dont protect
check your bus and railroad stations
TOTALLY UNPROTECTED, EXCEPT MAYBE BY HIGHSCHOOL DROPOUTS
oh yes, dropouts who have 80 lbs around the gut
who couldnt chase an old lady

take a look at NYC GrandCentralStation
SOME DONUT EATING COP PROBABLY STANDING GUARD

check the major bridges in any of 10 cities
zero zero zero protection
we are fat, slow, confused, unprepared, dumb
we are moving backwards, looking back to halcyon days

impact? the impact is the dollar collapse
