It's going to get bloody in here.... Jay, there's a lot of descriptive
stuff written about this setup and lot's of action stories. I"m sure
people will hook you up. But I always had to turn away from those
stories - even though it's not the most effective, high tech weapon out
there, it is the epitome of high explosive terrorism from the air. Naw,
cluster bombs sound worse.

Objectively, it's not always clear who the biggest terrorists are. So
let's pick up that bloody flag and wave it some more.


Objectively, the terrorists attacked civilians in our own country, via
methods unlawful even in warfare. Had they not done this, we would not
be there.

They take their families along with them and hide behind civilians,
daring us to shoot.

They want to commit terror -- we can (and will) show them what *REAL*
terror is! Mullah Omar reputedly remarked that he was surprised at the
fury of our response to 9/11. Let them know that it is really not a good
idea to pull on a tiger's tail!
