good points Salmo...and of course I was just being a dick earlier....

harley you have hit on something that bugs me..the Afghanistan poppy fields...We won't destroy them because it is their biggest cash crop...we would destroy their economy. Kind of like when we supported Saddam when he was fighting Iran...the guys who took our hostages. We have fought on one hand against things while supporting similar things on the other hand for years...Pretty confusing. We are attempting to fight terrorism in other parts of the world besides Iraq but it is obviously alot harder than conquering a third world country.

Sorry to hear the theory that if we just abandon Israel the terrorists will leave us alone...that is an antisemetic theory that is not very wise.
