Wayne, good example. Though I would never get mad at anyone who was pulling weeds. <G>

The Bush administration can not seem to grasp these simple words: Know what motivates your enemy. 911 was a direct result among other things of US troops being stationed in Saudi Arabia. Bush's response: Blame 911 on Iraq! Arabs in general do not like our policy towards Isreal. What do we do? Back Israel on every issue, even using veto power in the UN if necessary to do it. We clearly do not understand what it means to "save face" to the koreans or we would not go around calling their leader a scum sucking dog and a pygmy. This administration is about as hopeless as it can get when it comes to attempting to learn what motivates the enemy and to see if just perhaps there is something we can do other than drop bombs and stir up more hate via military occupations. We simply can not afford the approach we are taking. M
