You need to learn that some people will say and do anything to get their way, e.g. SearchRE, Immanueal Kant and American Spirit. I see one of your heroes just found the good Lord. "On completing the spiritual sessions that you as a messenger of the Word of God brought to my heart, even to my area of confinement as Prisoner of War of the United States, I feel the necessity of adding something more to what I was able to say to you as we parted. The evening sessions of May 15 and 16 with you and Rudy Hernandez along with the Christian explanation and guidance were for me the first day of a dream, a revelation. I can tell you with great strength and inspiration that receiving our Lord Jesus Christ as Savior guided by you, was an emotional event. The hours flew by without my being aware. I could have desired that they continue forever, but there was no time nor space. Thank you for your time. Thank you for your human warmth, for your constant and permanent spiritual strength brought to bear on my mind and soul. With great affection. arm.org Manuel A. Noriega"

A terrorist is a person who intends to harm innocents in order to bring a negative effect on his enemy. A terrorist group encourages some or all of its members to use this strategy. The strategy works when you let it. Terrorist events disorient societies by spreading fear among friends, families, or similar others who could be targeted. The fear is exacerbated by the fact that we have no way of knowing who will be hit, by whom, how it will occur, when or where to expect the attack. When the terrorist is ghost like it adds to the scary effect through fear, suspicion, disorientation, etc. The cumulative effect of not knowing the source or where or when it will surface, but that the event could be devastating, is a paranoid psychosis that is contagious. So far no one has found a way to stop a terrorist other than overwhelming force. Using overwhelming force to stop a terrorist is not equal to any of the above description of what qualifies as a terrorist. It is as different as can be. sheeesh dude.
