My best musing hopes that these little ploys will overplay the hand of the terrorists, but I doubt it. Like self-destructive dysfunctionals in any family, they want a self-fulfilling prophecy to prove them right: they are oppressed and persecuted. Never mind how they got there. If we press our righteous case against them, we are the bad guys. A very big part of Al-Q wants the world to "bring it on." They have little else to live for.
I think EVERY day at the precise time we ought to AIR the attacks on OUR country men and women on OUR soil!
NOOO we have the world's media showing this petrified young man pleading for his life...OHHHHHHHH that is to become acceptable "image" of war whereas the attack on the twin towers is not...propaganda from two fronts...
