..or better yet, found or invented an alternative source.

Nah, I'm not talking from some hippy environmentalist point of view, more like a attempt by the West (through science, research) to cut ourselves off from dependency from these people.

Solar Power Satellites is a place to start. With big ass lasers to lauch most of the materials. (Big ass lasers have other "interesting" uses anyway, so R&D would pay double dividends). Then use the electricity to make hydrogen from water.

While we are working on that, crank up GE or whoever makes the nuke plants for the Navy, tie the turbines to 60 HZ generators and there you go, electricity.

Welcome to FreeRepublic Scoogie. Your web site is headed in the right direction. Good job.

Now for the flames, don't spam us here. One post is fine, more is obnoxious. Thanks.

I am amused by the description of the Taliban as "Islamic purists" instead of the muderous terrorist thugs that they are. It makes them sounds like a bible studies group. I read somewhere that Reuters is owned or controlled by Saudi interests. Hmmmmm.

THE BALLARD OF THE BURNED BIN LADEN
Appologies to Barry Sadler's "Ballard of the Green Berets

Silver eagles from the sky,
Al Qeda pukes prepare to die,
Rollin' in with nuclear nape,
'Cause Allah's too great to have to wait!

Payback now for what you've done,
Time for Tal-lee-ban to run,
Time for US to have some fun,
With mushroom cloud and heat of sun!

We'll turn your desert into glass,
Burn your mountains to kick your ass,
You just awoke a 'Sleeping Giant',
We The People are now de-fi-ant!

America draws its mighty fist,
Cocked to lance that ugly cyst,
So say goodbye to home and mama,
What now is ash was once Osama!

"Purist"?! What happened to "extremist", "fundamentalist", "splinter group", "nutcases", etc?

You beat me to it...

"No Nukes"

Hmmmmmmmm.....interesting point. It seems that this type of technology has been singled out for special resistance.

Wonder why?

I just hope every time our fly boys begin a sortie and ever time our special ops teams steal out into the night, they begin each mission with the words

"Let's Roll!"

I've thought about it a lot, and had I been "in charge", I would have nuked Kabul on September 12th, and dealt with the backlash later. Maybe that's why I'm not in charge...

I guess it's because we have about 5,000 more to go before we even the score.

I don't think so.

When it approaches 50 000 it still will be nowhere near even.
I prefer the Israeli method of keeping score.
