Right. The mainstream liberal argument that "Fighting back against the attacking madmen makes the madmen mad" only makes me think we should kill the madmen even faster.

Human civilization had better get as serious about its survival as the seventh-century savages of Islam are about our annihilation.

provided we haven't been blown up by a WMD by then.

I would have thought you'd be thrilled to death with that scenario.

And if we have, you won't have done anything to prevent it; all you do is try to divide us.

We're killing them off and they call it "revitalizing."

Yup, and I suspect many of the original al Qaeda "warriors" have decided to go home and stick to goat herding.

Nope, I just agree with Gen. Schwarzkopf and other military brass who said invading Iraq was an unnecessary diversion from the war against Al Quade.

If they don't pose a threat, why is Ashcroft having a news conference today to warn about big-time terrorism this summer?

Who said that don't pose a threat? What I'm saying is that you're helping them by spreading their propaganda.

Maybe it's because Al Quade is alive and kicking (and energized by all the mess in Iraq)

And as I mentioned above, you seem thrilled by it, even though you have your facts wrong! I can almost see you smiling.

You're disgraceful.

Amen to that.

If the seventh-century savages are mutiplying at a fast rate, then we need to kill them at an even faster rate. Simple mathematics.

'nuff said.

Then Ashcroft's press conference today is an exercise in phony alarmism?

This isn't a think tank. It's a group releasing more A.N.S.W.E.R. press releases that have been retyped and presented as a consensus by neutrals. These are throwbacks to the large european groups that championed communism and derided the U.S. as long as thirty-five years ago.

Oh, there are some out there still. No one has declared victory yet. But the replacements for ones we've killed and/or scared off are even more pathetic as fighters than the originals.

Guess you think the same thing about Stormin Norman Schwarzkopf, Tom Clancy and others who I agree with on this issue.

Al Quade? Is he related to Dennis Quade?

I conclude that you are being provocative for sport, and that you really don't mean what you say: anyone who can log on to a computer can't be that dumb. Good joke...once. But it's kinda old.

You're the only phony here.

Frankly, I'm stunned by the fact that it doesn't seem to bother you at all that they intend to kill each and every one of us and we better get them first.

Oh, it bothers me to no end - - which is why I opposed diverting our energies from the war on Al Quade, to an unnecessary invasion of Iraq, a fifth-rate power that had nothing to do with 9-11, as even Bush and Powell now admit.

DO, I am convinced that all these people are the ones who tried to destroy this country in the 60's and now, having gotten a whiff of their love potion, defeatism, are back to finish her off.

You would've argued that Hitler was energized by D-Day. We're winning. Give it up.

Post ANY words where George W. Bush said Iraq had anything to do with 9-11.

I'll wait.

And what were they "energized" about when they killed 3,000 in New York.

You surely can't be that foolish.
