This one I can't answer. How are any loss of liberties atrributable to
cowardice of the USAF as you claim?

That's not what I claimed. The loss of civil liberties is attributable to
cowardice in the population in general.

Maybe you mean the loss of
liberties because of terrorist attacks and the knee jerk reactions that
ensue to "protect lives"?

In part, yes.

With that, I would agree that it is not good
to exchange liberties for security. But, that's just how I feel.

That's how the founders of the country felt, too, as well as a couple of
million people who fought to protect those liberties.

Cowards would not be in armed conflicts ...

Wise men wouldn't be in armed conflicts, either.

... therefore if the French are not
in armed conflicts, they themselves could be called cowards.

So anyone who isn't violent and fighting is a coward?

Air Force
folks are in armed conflicts, so how would you consider them cowards?

They don't let people visit their Web sites. They must be afraid of
something.

So why do you say the Air Force is cowardly for not letting YOU see
their site?

Because I don't see any other reason for blocking it.
