Point taken...That is odd that they arrested those girls, I remember what your talking about. I suppose you can twist any religion to say what you want it to say, I'm sitting here next to friend Amare, from Jordan, and he says there are many christians there...He also says that almost everyone has an AK-47.

I think the whole safer after the war argument is up in the air for now. There are a couple of directions it can go. The left will cling to the 1000 bin ladens theory. That may be true but there is another possibility. The world has learned again that if you push Americans too far we can be real bastards and if you fuck with us too much we can and will take your birthday away. I personally think that any prospective terrorists have learned that physical terrorism brings dire consequences and they are better off to attack us at other vulnerabilities. Ciber terrorism is the way of the future. It may not take lives but could cost billions in lost productivity. Enough attacks like that and it could severely damage America. It might not be obvious damage but I think in the long run it would be much more damaging than physical attacks. That is of course if terrorist where not able to deploy multiple portable tactical nukes within the US.

There is already Cyber terrorism. The only problem is is that we have some of the best anti cyber terrorists out there. We can find the location of many computers quickly.

Here's a line for 2004..... Won the presidency a second time despite all the whining little weasels.
hahahaha In luvdemshrooms' world people who actually care about the objective state of the country are "whining little weasels." And people who are too stupid to do anything but lob juvenile insults are the people to listen to and admire. Can you disprove anything on list ***NO FLAMES...edited by Rono***
I'm afraid I got here too late to see what Rono edited out, but I have a feeling I completely agree. Of all the posters here I've had disagreements with, no one has been harder for me to at least respect than ol luv, for the reason as Echo put it that he acts as though "people who are too stupid to do anything but lob juvenile insults are the people to listen to and admire." Thanks for the indictment--I mean, resume. I recommend everyone here read it, as well as wolves and sheep, posted by Rono, and consider how the two go together. Because there is a who nother layer to the onion, ladies and gents, and the more we spend ignoring it, and hemming and hawing on an inner level, the thicker it gets! hongomon

True we have some of the best here in the US but don't discount these guys in china or the middle east. They have a lot of time and motivation. A huge part of our infrastructure is now controled electronicly and can be hacked. hook a laptop to a cell phone and it is pretty hard to find that person in any anount of time that would allow their capture. A couple hours here and there of power loss could cost billions. Sure it is a possibility right now but as more things move to electrinics we are more vulnerable.

Here is what you're looking for:
http://archive.salon.com/politics/trail/2000/09/15/trail_mix/
If you Google Bush and "Silver Screen Management" you'll also find some nice info about his violations of securities laws and other minor hanky-panky.
September 15, 2000 | George W. Bush has portrayed himself as the candidate best able to take on the pop-culture bad guys, such as moviemakers who market violent films to children. But the Texas governor's past could put a hitch in that plan, according to the New York Post. From 1986 to 1993, Bush earned $100,000 sitting on the board of directors of the Silver Screen Management Co., which financed 1986 horror flick "The Hitcher." During Bush's tenure on the board, Silver Screen also helped bankroll kinder, gentler fare such as "Dead Poets Society" and "Pretty Woman." Bush communications chief Karen Hughes says that Bush's connection to "The Hitcher" is nothing compared with the close ties between Al Gore and Hollywood bigwigs.
