  "The insurgents' aspirations are growing. Abdullah, a midlevel leader of Kata'ib, says he's happy U.S. troops are staying in Iraq: it means he can be part of the jihad. Asked what the jihadists will do if U.S. forces finally pull out, one of Abdullah's comrades offers this answer: "We will follow them to the U.S."

  Have they forgotten, they may get this:

  Ultimately they can't win. I suppose they could drive us out of the mid east, but if it comes down to the survival of one civilisation or another, we could end it in 1/2 hour.

  Let me put in the standard reply:

  OMG, how could you think about killing innocent people! That is so barbaric..... Just talk to them and see what they want. Then we can all hold hands and live happily ever after.

  You know, I hate to say it, but if it really came down to it, if we knew that Al Qaeda or some other Terrorist had a nuke and was going to use it, I would just say look, I got two nukes, one is aimed at Mecca, the other is aimed at Medina. If you nuke DC or NYC, you lose the holy of holies.

  I say let's make a deal with the terrorist this way. Re-invoke the MAD doctrine for a new enemy in a new time. Maybe it would work? Shouldn't we be doing something with the nukes we still have?

  Oh, and I'm not being COMPLETELY serious here, more tounge and cheek than anything. Just so you know. I'm sure some can't wait to RETORT to this sort of thing.

  It kept the Russians from dropping the H-bomb. (Now, if we could only keep Cheney from dropping the F-bomb).

  Simon... didn't you read the first post... they DON'T WANT peace and security. You think someone could have NEGOTIATED with the Sept. 11th hijackers... they WANT death... theirs for martyrdom and ours just for the hell of it.
