Why commit suicide when the above examples will allow a terrorist to
walk away and live to bomb again.

Sure you can go splashy but they have already done that now havn't they.

Bomb your Congress and every American will get mad.

But if they start car bombing the parking lots of McDonalds then every
American will get scared........ Including all those millions of Wall
street type investors who will watch their stock of McDonalds start to
circle that famous toilet bowl.

Yes yes yes.... your government could kill general aviation deader than
a doornail..... and make flying commercial excrutiatingly aggravating,
but your government can't check every car, truck, bike, skidoo, seadoo,
and backpack or hollowed out book in the country now can they.

Why be stupid and get you Americans mad when they can be insidious and
scare the crap out of you from coast to coast and from the Canadian to
Mexican border. There is an awful lot of highways between those four
points on the compass, a lot of malls, and oodles of McDonalds to
choose from.

Why make life difficult and attack one of the most highly guarded
buildings in the world when the pickings are so much easier just
a few miles down the road.
