sorry for taking your thread off topic I_R, but you can always find "experts" that say what you want no matter what side your on.

If OBL could attack us any old time...he would. he wouldn't announce it first. it's not his style. do the devastation then say why, is what he's always done. hes used our own airplanes to terrorize us and now he's using our media because that's all he's got.

anyone who thinks they can negotiate with him or follow a stratagy of appeasment is asleep at the wheel. i say "bring it on bad man!"....i am guilty, guilty, guilty...and proud of it! he would like nothing better than to see us change leaders and there by change direction. this would cause such disorder that he might just have a chance of pulling something off
