Re: For if we do get hit with a few more 911s, you can bet most of the American population will support turning a few Arab countries into glass parking lots for the next millenium. And you'll have to turn the clock back to "Jim Crow" America ().... The US's world leadership would then shrink to match that of Apartheid South Africa or 1960s Australia. The appeal of US-made products would just vanish --worldwide. No more Hollywood movies (who's gonna watch Nazi-style movies bashing darkies and Muslims from start to finish, anyway?), no more Coca-Cola, McDonald's, etc. No more US sport celebrities (Tiger Woods, Williams sisters, NBA,...) to pull the US sports biz (Nike,...) And, last but not least, a wave of terrorist strikes against US interests --at home and abroad. (Go to a videorental near you and ask for "The 12 monkeys" movie - us.imdb.com ) Did I hear "worst-case scenario"?? Gus () jimcrowhistory.org
