LOL. That does sound strange.
If anyone knows about terrorism, it's the people of Israel. I feel so sorry for the innocent who have had to live with such fear.
It could just as easily happen here unless we do something about political correctness. It's a security wall for the enemies who wish to harm us.

It's only a matter of time before they attack again, defense is nice, I prefer a good offense.

Earlier in the week I read from a CNN e-mail alert, "Explosives found in jet crash debris, Russia says". Now I just read from an e-mail alert from foxnews.com, "MUSLIM SITE POSTS CLAIM OF RESPONSIBILITY FOR DOWNING OF RUSSIAN JETS".

Should be interesting to see how the Chechan elections go this weekend. I believe they're on Sunday.

The four tier defensive structure with active armed citizens linked with law enforcement is the main reason why Israel is so resistant to terror attack. But it takes two things America has not got.

First, an active ARMED citizenry,

Second an ACTIVE armed citizenry,

My guess is 99.999% of Americans would much rather the other guy guard the block, cause the trip to the lake or the movie is much more important, and besides, I don't have a nasty gun in the house because I am moraly superior...

That is why America is SO ripe for the damage from the attack that will take place nationwide when the infiltration movement is complete.

But one thing Americans do better than most any other country in the world is Adapt fast and have a very high sense of honor. One out of one hundred Americans is a hero waiting for his day, he just does not know it.

When the attacks come, and they will, the rare breed that is not so rare in America will come to the surface. They will be the Gun Toting Christian bunch, the same bunch of heros that won all our wars before, because of their self sacrificial willingness to risk it all to save a neighbor.

That is if the liberals don't have them all jailed for Hate Crimes first.

Well there's always this website:

http://www.citizencorps.gov/

...which is linked to Volunteers in Police Service:

http://www.policevolunteers.org/

And they have a link to our very own Sheriff's Posse:

http://www.policevolunteers.org/programs/index.cfm?fuseaction=dis_pro_detail&id=254

...of which I am a proud (armed) member. I would urge people to contact their local law enforcement agency rather than starting a separate program and trying to make the police department accept it. I never thought of myself as a law enforcement volunteer, but after joining up and being trained and working some details, I almost wish I had gone into full time law enforcement many years ago. It is very rewarding and lots of fun.

There are enough former veterans around that we could easily staff a gigantic force of volunteers if we really wanted to. The lefties would cry about "vigilantes" or whatever. Let 'em whine.

former veterans

The only way I know of to become a "former" veteran is to die.

Michael Moore, Senators Schumer and Feinstein, and Phil Donnahue have been doing their best to put us in just such a position.

It's a good thing that Americans don't like to be told what to do.

I agree. It's just a matter of time before we're hit again. The country's done an unbelievable job preventing attacks so far, but Al Qaeda plans for years and the only thing that will stop them is if they're all dead. Establishing democracy in Iraq will change Muslim minds in time, but even if it were up and running tomorrow, there are too many whose only reason for breathing is murdering Americans. No one's surprised the airline crash in Queens was a shoe bomber. The timing and target were undeniable. And what's to keep terrorists from claiming credit for accidents? They get the profit with no work or risk. The border situation is awful and it would take a miracle or another attack on a huge scale to change it. I suspect the latter is waiting down the road...especially if Kerry gets in.

If Chechan elections are today, we'll soon know if those airplane attacks had an effect. It's not easy living next door to the Russian bear. But nothing succeeds like success, and Spain will have a lot to answer for if country after country cave in to Muslim threats. It will backfire here, though. 'A good offense' is better than a good defense any day of the week. And I can't think that we've been sitting on our hands while Iran/NK/Syria did their dirty work. A lot's been going on behind the scenes -- that railroad explosion in NK. How much of our preemptive efforts would stop if Kerry were president? He's already said he'd hand over nuclear technology, whatever they need, and then, if they didn't give back used fuel rods, he'd know they weren't our friends. What kind of an idiot...scratch that. We know Kerry's a complete fool. The real question is why is MSM willing to risk the lives of millions of Americans simply because the RATs aren't in power. What happened to patriotism, especially in war? Integrity, honesty, moral values...Kerry's a liar, and so is the MSM.

Neighbors guarding neighborhoods with guns in the US would earn them a bullet in the back from the FBI hostage rescue team..or a burned down home..or a few years in jail...for something they'll think of later.

This country is lost. Our politicians [yes bush] have sold us out.

Better a jury of 12 than 12 pallbearers for you and your family. Act with restraint, with consideration to the life and liberty of others, and you may be surprised to learn that your fellow Americans will find sympathy for you. A wise old vet (with a real purple heart) once said that the militias of the American revolution were defending their communities, and their communities actually trusted and supported them. That's how it must be in any future situation where civilian force must be used to protect the homeland.

Interesting stuff. This is some of what needs to be done. The government must inform the public about how to react during a terror attack and how to prevent one. They should be teaching this to students in school, running ads on tv, and sending booklets home. They have not done so yet, and it will cost lives in the future. This is a main component of homeland security.

On the terrorism front militant Islamic terrorists will continue to strike America, of course. We all remember in 2002 the terror attack at the LAX El Al counter.
