I sincerely hope our current leadership does not think like that.
Your approach has been tried in Israel on a smaller scale. There they
bulldozed houses of families of suspected bombers. Didn't work. The
resentment grew and consequently more bombers appeared. It may have made
it easier to recruit bombers, not the intended consequence.
The only way your idea would "work" would be to nuke every city on the
planet, which is what your "solution" would tend toward as the mutual
resentments grew. Then the problem would go away, so you're partially
right, although no human would be around to enjoy the ensuing
radioactive calm.
That whole approach is a "wizard's apprentice" idea. Simplistic but
fraught with unintended consequences.

PS. We don't need to make this into "Return of the Crusades." We ought
to be a bit more enlightened at this point in history.

Rod, I'm veeery sorry, the DAT was actually a Tascam DA 30 !! Anyway, my
goal is to check if the 442 modified by an authorized (former) Ensoniq
laboratory works or not, 'cause, as I wrote, the first attempt without a

Kim.Hey Jamie,
That was just a generalized response to the reactionary approach the
previous poster had taken. The point was, I really think (and did before
the war talk started) that there is more to the story than has, or probably
ever will be publicized - we'll never know for sure either way.
The poster had come across sounding like Iraqis were doing just fine before
we went in but are a mess now because of us and no one else - and the poster
doesn't like Bush (to each their own of course). I'm sure the hundreds of
thousands of Iraqis that were tortured or killed under Saddam's regime might
disagree about their apparent well-being at the time. Certainly the
country's infrastructure and economy were better off before the war. War is
devastating no matter how you look at it.
Both sides of the circumstances sadden me - tyrannical rule is more than
anyone should have to endure, and certainly would be more than most
Americans could bear in our desire to have no one guide, much less restrict
our personal decisions; and if war is the only way to be free (as our
predecessors found in the 1700's), freedom comes at a high price. As a
country we've paid such a price many times - Rev. War, Civil War, WWI, WWII,
Korea, Veitnam, etc. It never gets easy. It is never glorious. My hope
now is that the outcome for the Iraqi people is freedom to make their own
decisions about who governs them and how - free from tyranny, and free from
anarchist insurgents. I'm just not sure many people think there is any cost
worth paying anymore. After all, $2.39 a gallon or which movie to go see is
about the highest cost most people have to weigh out here in the US (by
comparison to many other countries with far greater struggles in their
pathes). With such a gift of opportunity for life here comes a great
responsibility, one that I think we are losing perspective on as a country
(as much of the world is also). Sometimes we will take on too much

reat, let's keep in touch on
that. Also, if you're going to be heading to Denver give me a shout. If
I'm heading for the Springs I'll let you know.
You're right about not knowing everything. A lot of arguments made here
hinge on speculation. War is often sold as the price for freedom, but
the sellers are not always correct or even sincere. As responsible
voters we must be able to see through smoke screens, rationalizations
and lies, but that's often hard except through hindsight.
Past experience teaches us to carefully examine the many motivations for
war, not all of which are in the same lofty category as "the price of
freedom." There are other ways to help ensure freedom that are less
destructive and have less damaging consequences and those, too, must be
considered. Violence breeds violence and that consequence must be taken
into account as we try to find the wisest, most effective course of
action toward the better world we all want. Complacency is not an option.
Cheers,
