I agree with the bootman. When I was in the 8th grade here in Dallas, JFK was shot. Everyone immediately blamed the Russians and Cubans, but then the whitewash began and Oswald was blamed for the history books. When Oklahoma City was bombed, the Arab world and even militias were blamed. Ended up being one of us. This latest event does have evidence pointing toward the East, and despite warnings of "justice", will end up with some paper tiger, or threats. If'n we get too rough, the Arabs may embargo us, and we don't want that.

My beef with our own gov't is that their #1 job in Constitution is defending us; they failed. Then, I hear that it took an hour for the first fighter jet to launch after the twin towers were hit. I say blame them all... Notice how "coalitions and resolutions" are being formed (as usual) and the Prez must get Congress' approval before committing any assaults? Why not just telegraph the bad guys and say we're coming.
