I believe that my first words were that I knew that it would not be condoned at this time, however my thoughts are that there is no difference in hiring someone to kill bin Laden than in sending all those missiles over there hoping to catch him in a meeting. I believe that Israel has used this method as well as the Arabs themselves. dd

Whew! That's a mighty big leap. First you say its illegal, then you say given plausible deniability you'd support it. Did I miss something ? If in the waging of a war by an individual or a group can target a nation and its peoples, is it legitimate national defense for this nation to declare war and wage it against that group or individual ? I really think this is worthy of discussion by the Congress. They are the only ones who can confirm the President's desire. Their not taking up of this timely discussion says volumes about the President's recent declaration regarding Osama bin Laden as well as his ability to lead and remain in office. Even the conservative news media has remained silent on this issue of national policy. Looks like the tail wagged the dog.
