If I whet my glittering sword, and mine hand take hold on judgment; I will render vengeance to mine enemies, and will reward them that hate me. I will make mine arrows drunk with blood, and my sword shall devour flesh; and that with the blood of the slain and of the captives, from the beginning of revenges upon the enemy. -- Deuteronomy 32: 41 - 42

I want to buy a piece of this action. I can raise $5k cash and gold before the markets open Monday. I assume this will be a cash deal. Can I buy options?
Invest in America. LOL. Thomas J. rests easy in his grave tonight.

For a credible effort, venture capital should be available.
The financial mechanisms after that point are pretty well oiled.

Thomas J. rests easy in his grave tonight.Sorry, this is to be a pay-out arrangement (read the terms), not an investment opportunity.
$250k per dead/captured al-Qaeda grunt, $1 million apiece for the cell leaders (do the math, we can easily afford this against an organization of 10 or 20,000) -- and up.
Now if you were thinking of investing that $5k in ammunition and travelers checks...
Seriously, I think that congress should consider this option for asymetrical warfare against isolated, hidden cells (though I don't have the language/cultural skills to pull it off myself, I'm sure we have plenty of ex-military who'd be willing to try).

venture capital should be available.Ever since the Baptist Church in Boston bought it's first cannon and loaned it to the Continental Army, America has had capital. If I can make money and get a bang for my buck, I'm in.

I like it.Thanks. I pinged you, Lurker, Travis, Pooh, and Jeff to try to get a "military" read on the idea (I'm just a civilian, not counting the outside possibility of a Draft)....

(as I said, read the terms)

I'm proposing that Congress issue Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and provide the Financing (you provide your own private seed capital for the particulars of the missions, but Congress pays the Bounties)

Now, understand -- This does not exclude a Military response against any Nation-States which can be factually proven to support and harbor these terrorists, but it is designed to provide for the liquidation of the 1 - 2,000+ individual terrorist Cells which may exist world-wide.

You pay your money for the best, and you split the purse.

and provide the FinancingBig difference between financing and bounties. I finance the squads. (Already have names in mind). Congress pays the bounty for the scrum we bring back. Got it. Congress does not put the captital out to finance it, I do. Risk I take. My guys don't do well, I eat the cost. My guys do well, Congress pays off. I can live with that. Not much different than owning a race-horse. Just cheaper.

Beautiful. I agree almost entirely.
How about we either greatly extend that list of nations (Australia, Germany, France...etc)
... Or remove that requirement. I'd be willing to pay an Afghan 100,000,000 out of the treasury for Ossama's head.
What about you?
To: kd5cts
LOL options... yeah. I'm in for 5K...
