"The US is targeted because we are not, for the most part, Muslim."

I've got news for you Dave. There are more non-Muslims outside the US than in it. There are three times the number of non-Muslims in China than there are in the US. Same with India.
Almost twice as many in Europe. Ditto Canada, Mexico and S. America.

Yet, somehow, most of those countries really aren't worried about Muslims..

It kind of destroys your bullshit, with just a moment's thought..

"What you guys don't get is that Muslims are using our own freedoms against us. 7 years ago, Netanyahu was on TV after 9/11, and clearly explained that what America had to do was to learn that our freedom is what leaves the door wide open to this kind of attack. Bush has done a fantastic job of improving the situation; however, he has done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about the threat from within -- which is the greatest threat of all."

What's your prescription for the "internal enemy" Dave? I'm curious.

A hell of a lot less costly and discriminatory than having my wife, who is obviously no threat, put through the ringer every time we get on a plane.

Punk, your paranoia is going to destroy this country, its democracy and your marriage. Slap yourself across the face a few times, and when you sober up, then do the same for your wife.
