I take it that you subscribe to 'possibility 1' in the list of 2 above. Perhaps it's the opposite of Intelligence keeping all those terrorist sites up. The opposite of Intelligence is Stupidity.
"If anybody harbors a terrorist, they're a terrorist. If they fund a terrorist, they're a terrorist. If they house terrorists, they're terrorists. I mean, I can't make it any more clear to other nations around the world" What does that make American ISPs hosting terrorist web sites? They are taking money from Hamas, Hezbullah, Chechnya Mujahideen, KLA, Tanzeem, Al-Qassam Martyr's Brigade, Lashkar-e-Taiba, ... and dozens of other groups all listed by the U.S. State Department as terrorist.
The terrorists are paying for all these web sites with valid credit cards with funds drawn on US Banks. Why hasn't the FBI investigated the people paying for the sites? Perhaps they have been ordered not to? I am beginning to think that an IRS audit, for example, of the person paying for the Al-Qassam Martyr's Brigade's Texas web site might turn up some Saudi backing -- this might cause a problem for someone in the State Department.
