They got lucky - that shan't happen again.

The execution was luck. The planning and conception was simply, brilliant.

Never underestimate a foe, friend. Give them credit where credit is due, then make sure that they cannot do anything like that.

DARPA, I believe, contracted moviemakers and script-writers to come up with the most fantastic methods of attacking the US, after 9/11. That is so DARPA could identify possible incoming attacks based on certain symptoms and activities. Now THAT was smart. I'm sure they did not poo-poo the idea of Al-Qaeda-set fires, but like Adam wrote, what can you do about that one?

Oh, I know exactly what they could do, and it is completely out of the box. I have a few scenarios. I won't mention it on a public site, though.

"The execution was luck. The planning and conception was simply, brilliant."

Diabolical is a better word. Osamma's 9-11 plan only appeared to be 'brilliant' because few in America were evil enough to comprehend such an attack, let alone prevent it. I hope that what we have learned about our enemy is that the 'brains' behind his operation are not the human form, they get their inspiration from a darker form of intellect. We have forgotten that evil exists, and we have been reminded that it is alive and well.

What can one do? How about telling the Sand Savages that they created this pigeon. Pluck it or else! The next time we have a problem, seeing as how they claim it is a religious war, lets allow Riyadah to experience the "blinding light of Satori".

After all, they are sooo into religion, aren't they? Then, if it happens again, Medina would have the same religious experience. The idea is simple.. And the Arab world has a long history of understanding well both power and revenge.

Let us be ever so multi-culturally aware. Let us help the Sand Savage to reach the heightened experience of Satori. To do less would be to deny the core goodness and generosity of multi-culturalism
