Do you have proof of this - that the government of Saudi Arabia organized, planned, funded, manned, approved, and executed the attack on the World Trade Centers and the Pentagon.

Of course not. What kind of damn fool are you? This wasn't done as a official act of the Saudi cabinet,but it WAS done with the help of the Saud Royal family. It had to be,since they are total rulers there,and nothing is done that some of them don't have their fingers in. I suppose you think that 15 of the 19 highackers being Saudi's,bin Laden being a Saudi,their financing coming from Saudi Arabia,and the fact that Saudi Arabia exports the radical form of Islam that the terrorists follow and even fund the building of Mosques to teach this religion is all incindental?

BTW,the above amounts to more evidence of Saudi involvement than either you OR Bubba Bush have of Iraqui involvement.

Do you believe terrorist cells in the US, Europe and the Mid East are just random acts by sick individuals or the result of a deliberate foriegn policy of nations waging passive/aggressive war on us?

Both,PLUS organized acts by groups that do not have any official position or take orders from any country. In case you haven't guessed yet,there is more than one group of terrorists out there. We just happen to be focusing on one of them now.

They are a threat to Saudi Arabia, and to Jordan, and to Israel, and to Syria and/or Iran, wherein they would happily ignite a W.M.D.

While Syria is a borderline case for me,there are no words to express how little I care about what happens to Saudi Arabia. IMHO,it would just be a example of "taking out the trash". I don't want to see any harm come to the other countries,though.

and claim for propaganda reasons, that it was Israel of the Americans who did it.

Sorry,I can't agree here. No bully in recorded history has ever struck a major blow and given somebody else "credit" for it. He would HAVE to brag about it to show how powerful he is. It would be against his nature to do anything else.

In other words, time is really running out; and fast.

I think time ran out a LONG time ago. Bubba-2 talked himself into a corner keeping the poll numbers up for the mid-term elections,and now there is no way he can afford to back off and still hope to get elected again in 2004. There are only three possible scenarios,we go to war against Iraq,Saddam goes for political exile,or some senior Iraqui assassinates him to prevent the invasion. There is no way he will still be the leader of Iraq 6 months from now. You or I are more likely to be president of Iraq this time next year than he is.

While in the States, Americans think we are the target, overlooked is how the fascist-socialist-Islamic-nutcases will kill their own en masse, to "gain" political advantage.

Yup,while they love to rant and rave about "The Great Satan",the truth is they seem to all hate each other more than they do us OR the Jews. Like most "family fights",it's based on jealousy. Each tribe wants to be the dominate one.

Since the temperature has been going up so rapidly of late, we now have to attack and entirely --- no little surgical strike will stop Saddam.

You are absolutely right here. Ain't gonna be no raid,it's gonna have to end in occupation and declared victory.

He'll blow up Damascus or some "friend" of his, just to establish evermore enmity among the Islamic "hood."

I think it is quite likely that he has plans to destroy every one of his country's oil wells if invaded,and he thinks this will keep Europe from supporting a invasion. It's the ONLY card he has to play,so he will play it.

Ridiculous. The President named about 5 groups in his speech last year. Regardless of the individual terrorist's ideology, they are being trained and supported, financially, logistically and pyhsically by nations that sponsor terrorism as part of their foriegn policy. It is war by proxy. Unless you have some information that isn't widely known your argument is specious.

I agree in so far that Bushido was a revival of ancient Samurai martial values effectively promoted during the Emperor Hirohito's hyper-nationalistic fascist period. This was used effectively to creat a new Samuari-class of warrior known as a Kamikazi. Muslim fanaticism is different since it is not a national creed but a spiritual one and so transcends all political boundaries. Truly a Manchurian Candidate paranoid fantasy. Arab courage or cowardice not withstanding, there will always be one patsy ready to die for Allah willing to kill hundreds or millions of people.
