"Mr. Bush, don't squeeze the trigger until our citizens are as well-protected as the Israelis. Right now, Saddam's exit from the world scene simply isn't worth the tragic price our unprotected citizens might pay."

. . .agree with the Colonel. Of course, these people need to be dealth with and soon, but not a day goes by that we do not hear of another breach of security or a 'political correctness' that challenges our sanity and our judgements re our security. . .

. . .for one, it seems ludicrous that as we ponder our war against terrorism and against those who manufacture it; we continue to make this country so hospitable to huge populations of what could be, and most likely would be, and in a moment; our enemy.

We must plan our Homeland strategies as seriously as our strategies beyond our borders, IMHO. . .otherwise, we could easily have a kind of Trojan Horse effect/scenario.

Sadly, the changes since Septembe 11 give me little confidence that reason is in any way prevailing .

That would be nice, but it aint going to happen... People are already freaking out about taking thier shoes off at the airport. The democrats will cry foul if we try to organize any civil defense measures. "It will be to destabilizing!"
