My first reaction to the dramatic -" smoking gun " - Osama
bin Laden tape: a little skeptical, not quite convinced of its authenticity,
even though I am convinced that there is now more intellectual integrity
in the CIA than in politically correct Academia.
Question : Terrorists can hardly trust themselves in carrying out
their bloody agenda. How foolish to make this damning home video. It
was as indiscreet as a serial killer bragging about his crimes in a cheap
neighborhood bar. How can a guy that reckless be the SAME guy who masterminded
the atrocities in New York City and the Pentagon on Sept. 11 ?
And considering the latest headline about the attack on the
Indian parliament building - and more suicide attacks on Israel - and
the Jewish Defense League terrorists just arrested in the U.S.A - it
does seem that terrorists everywhere are NOT getting the message.
We have NOT succeeded in terrorizing the terrorists. Perhaps-
just perhaps - the strategy of a WAR against terrorism is just feeding the
monster. A UNITED NATIONS POLICE ACTION might have been more effective.
Are we Americans to live like Jews in Israel for the last 50
years - just accepting terrorism as an everyday reality ?
But no compromises with the Devil ? Nothing wrong HERE !
