IMO they have good reason to fear reprisals. Common
sense tells you that such an organization has to have
embedded terrorists whose modus operandi is based on
secreting themselves inside a respected group. And
even the Honchos of the organization has to know that!
Sure, mom, kids, even Dad in a family may be pro-
peace; but what about Uncle Hassein who keeps close
touch via internet to terrorist groups back "home!" ?
It's the updated version of the WWII adage:
"We have met the enemy and he is us!"

"WWII adage:
"We have met the enemy and he is us!"



WWII? That is much older than that. Try 1812/British War or so. Stop giving the WW undue credit! ;-D

They need to say they are outraged, NOT that the FIRST thing out of their mouths is that they are now "afraid for them women". What a bunch of cowards! They want to be taken seriously? Turn over EVERY possible suspect to the police BEFORE the sun sets!

As to the quote from WWII, it isn't.

It's from the fifties and the comic strip "Pogo", meant to smear McCarthyism.
