Sorry Lou, but I just disagree. First there is no doubt in my mind as to AlQueda's responsibility and I know of no authortitative evidence to the contrary. I don't hink we can just do nothing and expect the problem to go away. Again I am heavily influenced by my read of "Chaostan" which explains the history of the situation, the politics and for that matter the religion. The bottom line is there is a radical element of Islam which is out to destroy the West. My view is we let that happen or we protect ourselves. I am in the protect ourselves camp. I do not believe that those who essentially advocate doing nothing and hoping the problem will go away are being realistic. If I were Bush my approach would be close to his. Is there a risk? yes. But there is in my judgment a bigger risk if we do nothing. Little joe

entirely likely that Iraqi oilfields will be damaged then the United States brings them into production and incurs a huge cost while Sodomy hides in a Bahrain resort (or some such) except the USA will be disinvited by a growling angry Arab community as Iraq's new oil production is put in the hands of Sodomy's old buddies and Sodomy returns triumphantly in 2005 only to thank his American friends too many people regard this man as a lightweight not me / jim
