15. I agree with Sniffa
The "terra. Terra, TERRA" frenzy the BushCo propaganda machine is directing at all of us is sooo terribly WRONG!!!

If we are attacked again, (and we might well be), the chance of any particular person being affected directly is as remote as winning the lottery or being struck by lightning.

Other countries are being attacked every day, (Israel is one example), and life still goes on.

This is the reality of the modern world. Our own government tries to cow us with the threat of a terrorist attack in order to do Anything they like , strip any of our freedoms they care to ,and make us thank them for it.

All of the people Must wake up and re-examine their priorities.

The most destructive thing that can happen is to allow unreasoning Fear to grip us, to just run in circles (When in worry, fear and doubt/Run in circles, scream and shout)

Folks, we are ALL better than that!
