Are you suggesting that its ok to be a terrorist so long as you have no intentions of committing an act of terror against the U.S. at this time?

Thats like saying it okay to commit murder, just don't kill someone in my family and your ok with me...

I find that a logic somewhat twisted, and as a law enforcement officer very offensive..

The warning signs prompted Kofi Annan, Secretary-General of the United Nations, to caution that attacking Iraq would only exacerbate tensions in the Middle East.

Er, excuse me Mr. Annan... our tensions have already been exacerbated when those Arabs murdered 4000+ of our citizens. Frankly I don't care how exacerbated those camel riders are. If they don't embrace modernity, modernity will have to embrace them.

NO,NO,NO. OK, let me put it clearer, I'm a brit soldier whos served about 3yrs - out of 15yrs service - against the IRA, and all i'm asking is, that once al-quaeda has been totally defeated, do you think that terrorism will be banished, given that al-quaeda is just one group out of about 126 operating around the world

"Thats like saying its ok to commit murder, just don't kill someone in my family and your ok with me...

Sorry, but isn't this the logic that the US has taken for the past 30yrs with regards to the IRA, pressure from the US govt has forced the British forces to take a softly softly approach against the IRA terrorists for as long as I can remember.

I am definately not suggesting it is ok to be a terrorist, don't matter who they want to attack. I've lost friends in NI to terrorists, and as far as I'm concerned, every terrorist from every terror group should be eliminated as soon as possible.

Mr. Annan said, "It would be unwise to attack Iraq now." He said there is no proof Baghdad was connected to the Sept. 11 attacks.

Iraq doesn't have to be connected directly to Sep. 11 attacks. Plenty of evidence exists, that Iraq is a threat to the US, to neighbors and to its own citizens.

Sooner or later, there WILL be a showdown over inspectors. If Saddam doesn't want war, he will capitulate. If he wants war, he will get it. Mr. Annan and Mr. Blair, notwithstanding.

Take careful notice of the lesson learned by Somalia and Yemen. The US can and WILL do whatever they cannot or will not do, to clean out the diabolical nests of terrorists.

First of all, Northern Ireland is a colony of England, It's (still) part of England so don't slam the Irish. England sucks compared to Ireland. They don't call the English flag the butcher's apron for nothing.

Those English IRA guys are terrorists only because many of their targets are non military. However, the Protestants in Northern (English) Ireland are no better.

Bush: "Well, Dick, I believe it's time to pay Saddam a little visit."
Cheney: "I believe you're right, Mr President."
Lincoln: "I've been through 8 years of hell,boys. Go get 'em!"
