Hows that ?

Im paraphrasing what the Congressment is saying:
"We as a country cannot fear an open discussion {on the use of nuclear weapons)".
We have been attacked by Biological weapons, and as per our 50 year plan, need to fulfill our promise to deter such attacks by using small, tactical nuclear weapons on terrorists strongholds.
If we do not retaliate with weapons of mass destruction as they have used on us, future terrorist attacks with WMD may not be detered and the consequences may be more than we are willing to bear.
Steve Buyer, IN-R
Again I was paraphrasing.
?Carbey Joe, would you change your mind if your girlfriend Hillary died of anthrax? Of course that'll never happen. Her flunkies pre-breath all of her air for her.
Forget the Nukes...
We have all this XV nerve gas sitting waiting to be destroyed. I may have a better use for it.
And, as a plus, no fall-out and no waiting 1000 years to pull out their dead carcasses!
Absolutely! What do we do if the people spreading the Anthrax via our postal system are home grown terrorists! Please see my replies # 27 adn 39 on this thread.
Damn, winodog, you are probaby right!
Good advice!
Hows that ?
I agree that there may come a time when a national ID card might be reasonable, as well as some restrictions on our privacy. However, I don't believe that we have come anywhere close to that time, even if this Anthrax situation turns out to be much worse than it currently is. I certainly don't think it will EVER get to the point where using nukes will be a reasonable response. I just thank God that Rep. Steve Buyer, if he is doing anything more than blowing off steam, is not making the decisions right now.
And whatever happened to "Give me liberty or give me death!"?
The rapid spread of hoof and mouth disease in the UK has been suggested by many to have been spread by the violet pro Animal groups in England. Of course before 9/11 nothing would have been said or done on this!
One of the leading PETA hags this summer said that she would have no problem using Hoof and Mouth disease in America!
As far as non violent in America, some of the PETA terrorist in the field with fishers are far from non violent! Particuliarly if they are back in the forests and feel that they can get by with violence!
From the Presidents address to Congress...
"We will direct every resource at our command -- every means of diplomacy, every tool of intelligence, every instrument of law enforcement, every financial influence, and every necessary weapon of war -- to the destruction and to the defeat of the global terror network."
If eventual release indeed occurs, I think, a la Mossad or Shin Beth, we (i.e., the gov't) may have to, untraceably, whack 'em, or at least the smelliest ones. If we're contemplating nukes, i.e., the macro, can we afford to overlook this, the micro? Am I nuts? Any opinions?
As I'm a relatively new FReeper, I apologize if I should've posted this on a different thread, but I couldn't find a more appropriate one off the bat...
