And you think a few hundred thousand can "destroy America"? This isn't about neo-colonialism, this is about realism, or "neo-realism"- if you need to put a "neo" in there. Iktomi, this is the modern globalized world. On 9/11 fewer than 20 men with boxcutters killed 3000 people and did half a trillion dollars of damage to our economy. If 20 more such men suicide bomb our cities with dirty bombs, the damage will be an order of magnitude greater. I still have discussed only the easy strikes, not nukes or biological weapons. Wake up. America is no longer protected by its oceans.
