We must remember that Pan-Islam's goal is to cripple the American economy and with it Western Civilization's World Economy because we are the only force on earth able to destroy these SOBs. To do so they will kill and maim as many of our families as they can, for as long as they live.

With Arab oil reserves "protected under ground", Islamists believe that their culture and natural wealth will survive any war lasting throughout this century so to rebuild and flourish with their trillion$ in petro-Euros - the dollar econmy faded as the Pound Sterling.

We must fight this war as if our grandchildren's souls depend on it. WMD attacks here and against our interests abroad will not have state labels on evidence. We know who our mortal enemies are4; we must wage a war not to survive but to win durable peace through this ghastly war of annihilation. This brutal war will be worse than medieval, it will be biblical.

a large part of the problem is the oil companies? If they weren't blocking research into alternate fuels at every corner, we'd have a good solar or wind or something power by now.

Right, and the 500-mpg carburetor too. What a crock. You must be one frightened little rabbit if you think the oil companies have this kind of power.

Iran has nukes too, has had them for years.

Frankly I would be surprised if Iraq already has them.

Well let's think positively about that. At least the UN building would be gone from US territory. All we would have to do to verify an imminant detonation is to watch the movements of particularly scurrilous diplomats.

Has anybody stopped to think that a large part of the problem is the oil companies? If they weren't blocking research into alternate fuels at every corner, we'd have a good solar or wind or something power by now.

Lol....Look both wind and solar are a crock. The energy density sucks, storage is out of the question, transmission is a mess...Its just a red herring for politicians who want to appear green. Wayne Allard (r) lost my vote when he tried to spin the windmill bs to me.

The answer is reactors. You *can* go from nuke to electricity to hydrogen. You might also be able to go from hydrogen to a fossil fuel equivalent.

For more info see Howard Hayden's "The Solar Fraud" . (wind energy is solar energy)

Wondering if most of the "piece parts" are already in place (i.e., in one or more warehouses). All that's needed is the final assembly and immediate detonation.

PLease, PLEASE, let the pro-terrorist (so-called anti-war) protestors and pro Saddam Hussein DemocRATs be in downtown D.C. when the BIG one goes off. Nothing else will convince them that nukes in the hands of terrorists is a serious situation...

I'm not sure who I agree with between you two.

On the one hand, and what SHOULD happen, is Timesink's scenario. I would add to that, that the democrat, the party of bill clinton, the party of algore, the party of terry macauliffe, the party of jesse jackson and al sharpton, the party of robert byrd, the party of tom daschle, the party of ted kennedy, the party of larry flynt, the party of al-Qaeda, the party of Commmunist North Korea, the party of Saddam, the party of lies, filth, race-baiting, lawlessness, socialism, treachery, perjury, obstruction of justice, abuse of power, obfuscation, confusion, pornography, hate, and death, would finally be dismantled and destroyed.

I tend to believe, however, that Illbay's scenario would be much more likely. If they have already fallen back asleep since 9/11, as they clearly have, after those first few weeks of talking about almost nothing except God, patriotism, "I'm SO GLAD W. is our President", and a Sleeping Giant, this people has deteriorated back into actually considering running algore against President Bush, the lautenberg crapola, all the anti-war demonstrations......blah, blah, blah. They STILL haven't gotten it, and they probably never will until we lose this republic.

Enviro-nazi's in Minnesota and elsewhere refuse to allow nuclear plants to safely transport their spent fuel and used radioactive water elsewhere for permanent disposal. Their hopes is by forcing the plants to store it massive amounts of it on-site, they will eventually have to shut down.

In MN, the nuclear plants are mostly along the Mississippi river. One well-placed Islamic bombing would flood the Mississippi with radioactive waste.

Guess where most of the drinking water for towns downstream comes from?

David Horowitz has made a pretty good argument that it's environmentalists who are blocking the nuclear alternative, and preventing us from exploring ANWR for Arab-free oil.

I know. Notice how we all know darn well they won't attack Berkeley or Cornell. DC would indeed be the target.

Well, at least if there ever IS a true nuclear device set off in the US, the people that die will at least have given their lives to insure that all radical Muslims on Earth will be hunted into extinction, both via government decree and citizen vigilante groups; and that the immigration problem in the US will be solved permanently and quickly; the public will end up rioting if Congress and the White House don't start immediate, hardcore crackdowns and massive deportations.

Congress would issue a statement "Now we're REALLY mad. We are conviening a committee to study this right now!"

Howard Hayden is great! So was Petr Beckmann - a true thinker.

I could tell you...but then I'd have to kill myself.....

And I don't see that happening anytime soon.

Oh!...a knock at the door...some men in black suits...I hope perchance..they are 7th Day Adventists.

Big Oil and the power companies are doing more research into alternative fuels and alternative energy than everyone else combined. Right now the big push is natural gas, but they will always be in the energy production industry whatever form that make take.
