I'd word that as "stopping terrorism by solely focusing on the weapons is a losing game". Of course we need to look at why the terrorist wants to "terrorize" in the first place. If we (or anybody) is doing bad things that antagonize such behavior than it needs to stop, but we can't always please appease everyone. Chris Losinger wrote: are we in for a future of secret detentions of US citizens, constant fear, the binary terror alert chart For the short term (ie. our lifetimes) probably yes. Like you've said before, there are plenty of countries who have been suffering from terrorism for many decades with no signs of change. Why should the US be any different? Mike Mullikin :beer:

How do you get a police state ? You let people in power do what they want. Its up to the voters in the US to pick canidates who will do something instead of deciding between two clones. Elaine :rose: The tigress is here :-D

The current two party system along with lobbyists, PACs, campaign finance, etc... needs to change. Sadly, I doubt I'll see any significant change in my lifetime.

Here's a question to everyone who thinks GWB is doing a good job in his War on Terror (of course I will accept answers from anyone): Q: Can such a war end? 1: If so, how? 2: If not, does that mean the US will be "at war" forever? 3: Many people are using the "we're at war" excuse for restricting freedoms and/or choosing unusual interpretations of the laws regarding detainment, trial and evidence. Does a permanent state of war mean we can expect these abuses to become the norm? 4. Is this acceptable? 5. Clay or Rueben? -c

I think GWB is doing an average job on the "War on Terror". IMO he should do a lot less talking to the press/public and a lot more international diplomacy. #1 - The "war" can end once ALL of the first world countries decide terrorism has to end and takes it seriously. Whether this will ever happen is another story. IMO the culture clash is too great and a concensus will never be reached. The UN is a waste of time and money to this end. #2 - As long as the US exists there will be people that want to hurt/kill it. That is true of every nation. We live in dangerous times with no great world-wide harmonious epiphonies on the horizon. #3 - Yes, people are generally sheep. Socialism breeds this attitude and fear nurtures it. #4 - No. #5 - I'd much rather eat a Rueben sandwich than a clay sandwich if that's what you mean. ;) Mike Mullikin :beer:

We only hate each other's "views" which are unfortunately totally opposite and differences have their roots is history. One day we have to become good friends because their is no other way to live; as Mr.Vajpaye said that friends can be changed but not neighbours. The day is not looking far when we become good friends but our traditional rivalry will remain till the end of this earth. Just see that there is rivalry b/w Australia and England, jealousy b/w France and UK e.t.c
