Oh, I get it.

You want to talk about the Jews collectively, but when it comes to terrorists they're all just innocent individuals.

Look, the military is doing its best to identify people who pose a threat. Most of them who have been jailed were jailed because they DO or they were believed to; the military has no motivation to jail people who aren't a threat. If some happen to get jailed who aren't really terrorists, that's just too bad.

I'd rather see 1,000,000 of these people jailed erroneously -- for life, if necessary -- than to see one American (civilian or soldier) lose his or her life. Not our problem.

They started the war. When they did so they effectively put some of their innocents at risk. We've done a fantastic job under difficult circumstances -- contrast it with what happened when we were attacked at Pearl Harbor and it is easy to see that our country today has been far more sensitive to this situation.

Personally, I find the entire anti-American sentiment, of which you are a part, to be child-like and ignorant. Bush's biggest mistake in the conduct of this war has been the pussy-footing around with this scum.
