Sooner or later they will acquire something and/or DO something that will give us political Permission to TAKE THEM OUT totally and completely.

Just because the French leadership (except for Sarkozy) is wimpy doesn't mean every person in France is the same.

"cheese-eating surrender monkeys"

Unfortunately for the French, the only place they had flying monkeys was in Oz.

"the French daily Le Figaro reported that Al Qaida-aligned cells have obtained SA-18s for attacks against French airliners. The daily said the cells acquired the missiles in 2002 from the so-called Chechen mafia..."

Wouldn't the Chechnyans have used at least **one** of those against an airliner out of Moscow...if they really had them?!

Aaaah. How about 9-11? No one on this planet has the guts to make a major move. We CONTINUE to play games with the bad guys.

Pathetic policies only entice more of the same from terrorists.

My thoughts as well - Then again, al Qeade has oil money backing it to a larger extent, which can afford it bigger and deadlier things -

Bad news for the Democrats also, if any missiles reach their target.

Weren't there two Russian planes downed by something a year or two ago?

Well it's hard to know what to feel about this little bit of intel.......Have we sent Joe Wilson to confirm this?

If we have not....might this be a leak? Maybe the CIA should try to keep this under raps.

Let's hope they don't use this as an excuse for employing brutal interrogation techniques like sleep deprivation.
