What if we were attacked by WMD and couldn't find out who to retaliate against?

We should put some folks on notice. They'll either say "whoa there big guy, let me show you we're not part of this" or they'll say, "we don't see any evidence of a terrorist plot here" and let the perps walk.

Hopefully, we're kicking some French arse behind the scene. Interesting, too, that more details about the Air France mess are being leaked. French treachery, and double dealing are as plain as the nose on your face, but they've done it for centuries and doubtless see no reason to change. It's time we gave them a few.
