21. What happening? Attacks on Yemen that have to be justified.
Maybe Al Qaeda is really active in Yemen. I'm not there to verify any facts, but I do know that we can't afford yet another war right now. We have had eight years to deal with terrorism. Do you realize that kids who started school in 2001 are now in the eighth grade and will be in high school next year. That's how long we have supposedly been fighting this endless war on terror.

Might as well fight a war on weeds. Terrorists have been a part of social ecology for a long time. Who is and who is not a terrorist depends in part on perspective. Personally, I would class people who want to blow up planes, people or anything else without permission in my country to be a terrorist. But I suppose that people in countries where we blow up things might see us as the terrorists. I'm not there. I am here. My perspective is from this point of view.

All I know is that Bin Laden is either already dead or hiding somewhere. His children are in Iran. They probably know where he is. And we seem to be surrounding Iran.
