this is basically proof that the terrorists have won. we're allowing--nay, ENCOURAGING our lives to be built around a fear of attack. we have two options: A) get over it, get on with life as always without spending shitloads of money on this "threat" or B) IDENTIFY OUR FUCKING ENEMY. You can't say our enemy is Iraq. You can't say our enemy is terrorism. You can't say our enemy is Al-Queda. Our government needs to pass down from Commander in Chief to the grunts on the front line the order to kill SOMEONE. Right now we've got 150k troops with itchy trigger fingers and after 4.5 years the brass still hasn't given a clear indication of who they should be aiming at. Sunnis? Shiites? Terrorists? men, women, children? no one knows who we're fighting, so we either need to kill everyone or kill no one. and people wonder why this blackwater shit is happening.
