"Now all that may be, but I'd just point out that "these wackos" you refer to number 1.3 Billion and are in almost every nation in the world. Warfare is no longer 2 nations lining up and sending their militaries against each other."

There are not 1.3 billion wackos and even if you count the 10% that give AQ the thumbs up there is only a significantly smaller portion that actually would do their bidding. Take the money out of the equation and it gets even smaller. Americans in Mecca would be the worst thing for these guys because that would show that America was stronger than their god.

Hmmm....maybe you have not seen the polls done on muslim populations and their support of AQ.
