More support from the Arab world for Bush. I tend to agree, but I remember one "Mad Dog" who doesn't seem to bark anymore.

My husband hasn't forgotten Sirhan Sirhan who murdered presidential candidate Senator Robert F. Kennedy because of his support for Israel.

He says that was the opening shot.

Insightful, but remember our former friends, the French, who set the current Iranian situation into motion. Remember it was the French who were so happy when the 1979 revolution took place.

France has placed so many of her economic eggs in the Middle East basket. From 1966 onward they embraced the Arabs. In 1973, they further advanced their military, nuclear, and energy trade ties with all the Arabs - who were aligned with the USSR and Russia. Today, French economic ties with the Arab world account for 30% of her total exports/imports. It was closer to 40% before Iraq was removed from this trade equasion.

The key to winning the war on terrorism lies with the total isolation of France economically, politically and militarily from her terrorist loving trade partners. To stop the Arabs and their bitter hatred of Jews and Democracy, it I must again reinerate that stopping France is paramout. This effectively halts the same crap at the UN.

I don't know anything about this writer, so I can't judge this as "support" as you claim, perhaps just a grudging admission that the jig is up, and screaming loudly and waiving a sword over ones head is no longer sufficient.

However, I see Kerry as the re-invention of Jimmy Carter.
Which is why we have so much to lose next tuesday.

Good article! I must be missing something here; wasn't Timothy McVeigh put to death for the Oklahoma bombing and isn’t Terry Nichols still in prison? Both were connected to white supremacists group ‘they’ said. Why did that investigative committee not want to hear evidence that others had about Middle Eastern groups but now admit terrorists had something to do with the bombing?

Was McVeigh somehow paid off and what does Nichols know – this whole story is all wrong somehow.

I don't know if it really matters where when or why it is the way it is. If one really wants to get specific, about the ongoing battle of philosophies, one can go all the way back to Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, where the influence of Satan was a factor in man's progression. Later, Satan influenced Cain to kill his brother.

From that point on there were those with allegiance to God, and those who pinned their hopes on the one who's job it is to thwart the plan of God through whatever means is available. So we have progressed (a slight oxymoron) from stones to nuclear weapons, in the battle for the minds of men. There are really only two sides to the coin, may we choose wisely.

Yes -- the followup was when 'Jimmuh the Carter' did not show the resolve Bush has shown today and stare these troglodytes down -- and if necessary do a JFK-Cuba on them. This was the beginning of where we stand today.
