Very interesting debate ladies. I happen to side with the wartime mentality at this point. I do believe this is WWIII. Whether anyone else wants to agree with me on that is a different story. I think we are facing a brutal enemy who will do whatever it takes to shake our will and expose our fears and weaknesses. There is no doubt in my mind that their ultimate goal is to control Saudi oil (Al Qaeda hates the monarchy) and to control Pakistan for their nukes. These people must be fought head on. When the FBI was trying to bring down organized crime, do you think they targeted people named O'Reilly or Murphy? No, they targeted Gotti, Columbo and names like that. I am half Italian and I understand why they went after Italians because that is who the mobsters are! Fact is, the terrorists of of Arabic descent. Thatis who they should target. And may I just reiterate, we need the good Muslims to filter out the evil ones. Hands down, that is what is needed.
