Is this the kind of post the one poster complained about - doom and gloom ? Hope that person doesn't read this article then -

From the post: "The place for women is to be protected, in the home, having many children to out-populate the west with its low birth rates."

This may be true -

From the post: "The decadent west is weak and cannot take pain, sacrifice, and casualties. The true Moslem will glory in martyrdom for it assures eternal bliss."

Well gosh - wonder how we got to the point where we cannot take pain, sacrifice, and casualties - ? Indoctrination by the major media and the Socialist Democrats perhaps - ?

Leaves one wondering just which groups are working "together" - where one does the work - and the other takes advantage of the situation.

And wouldn't the new missile defense go a long way in putting down the threat from the subs. - just wondering -

I know the Socialist Democrats held this defense up for the longest time - when they were in control of Congress or had enough members to keep it back from a vote -

Hopefully, the Pentagon and Intel agencies are considering and war gaming all possible scenarios.  After all, being paranoid and imagining the wildest possible situations is what the job description of SOME of their analysts should include, and the analysis then compared to known events and intel.   Government's basic function is to protect it's citizens and way of life.  Therefore, being prepared is paramount.

We have all heard about the Pentagon's extremely powerful war gaming computers.  I hope that our intel agencies have the same type of systems to analyze political scenarios of other countries and potential outcomes and effect on us and the rest of the world . 

I hope that these systems are constantly upgraded and programmed by our best and brightest.  In addition, our intel structure MUST gear up to provide accurate info from within every other country and whatever covert actions necessary to protect us. 

We must acknowledge a new cold (as well as hot) war exists.  A behind the scenes intel gathering and covert actions to protect our country is mandatory and we can't let 'political correctness' dictate 'acceptable' actions.  Sometimes brutal actions are necessary. 

Only a strong willed, determined leader can protect us in this dangerous time.  President Bush is that leader.  I believe that Senator Kerry would fold and surrender to our enemies, just like he did in Viet Nam.  

Americans must have the will and determination to prevail and stand by President Bush, even if some mistakes are made, and especially if we take some casualties at home or abroad.  Casualties are inevitable in a time of war and we must not let the weak and fearful determine our course. 

Considering all possible scenarios and being prepared with the proper response or pre-emptive action is absolutely the correct course of action.  I believe that President Bush will provide the best possible preparation and defense.
