If we have to play the tape, so that the average American will know what we are up against, play the damned tape! It's sad that we would need to do that, we should already be aware of the nature of our enemy, however our own press is on their side, and that is why we have to shock the American public back into reality.
Yeah, your right. Let's view the tape. Then the next time something happens, let's play that to death to.
Here's a novel idea, do something about it now so there is no next time. Last time I checked, Joe Citizen is not in charge of the US Military, President Bush is. You can rest assured that he's seen the tape, and is indeed doing something about it.
