I would propose to respond with the invasion of Afghanistan for harboring Al Queda. Followed by the invasion of Iraq for not living up to their obligations under the cease fire agreement after the first Gulf War (Which I was a participant in). This should be followed by support, at a distance, of democratic reform in Lebanon; election reform in Egypt, and support of any elections in Saudi Arabia. We should also crack down on Libya's WMD capabilities if they don't come clean.

Oh, yeah, Bush IS doing all that....and I support him.

What we should also do is limit our support of Pakistan, cut our dependence on Saudi Arabian oil, and kick the hell out of Iran.

What we should NOT do is cede to the enemy all Islam by declaring a crusade against the worlds one billion Muslims, abandon our Constitution to outlaw a religion or exile or intern US citizens and abandon our fundamental liberties of freedom of religion, freedom of association, freedom of speech, and equality under the law.

"abandon our Constitution to outlaw a religion or exile or intern US citizens and abandon our fundamental liberties of freedom of religion, freedom of association, freedom of speech, and equality under the law."

It's rather easy to say what should NOT be done internally to address the threat of terrorist attack from resident aliens, naturalized citizens or illegal immigrants smuggled across the border. Do you support monitoring and surveillance of groups possibly tied to terrorism, even though the primary factor motivating such suspicion is religion? Do you see the difficulty in attempting to prevent a repeat of 9/11, due to the very structure of our society? If a large enough series of attacks are successfully mounted in the US, the Constitution will be in grave danger. It's a rock and a hard place.
