re: "I think you've just bought into the fear-driving crap put out by the chimpistration. It really is so reminiscient of the "domino theory" that if we got out of Vietnam, communism would creep like cancer across the globe and start eating California. Didn't happen, did it?"

You know bin Laden and al Qiada's goals are not exactly secret. They've said what they plan to do (in a general way), and what they want. When bin Laden says that he wants Americans killed - any American - anywhere, I now believe him. When he says that he wants America, Americans and American "influence" out of all moslem countries - and that he'll kill Americans till they leave, I believe him. I find it simply amazing that you do not.

You compare bin Laden with Communism and the Domino Theory? Sure why not. I'm sure you always knew that Soviet Communism would collapse. During the America's 70 year struggle with Communism a hundred million people were killed by Communists and 100,000 American soldiers lost their lives. With the fall of the Soviet Union, we now know that the Soviets supported, were in direct communication and often directed the "liberation" and communist movements in "domino" countries. So yes, the domino theory was real because the Soviets were "playing" dominos.
