Question about anti-US terrorism
Why don't terrorists realize that if they really wanted to stop our imperialistic activities in thier homelands, they should attack U.S. Economic/Financial targets and empire building organizations (including, but not limited to H-burton, B-tel, etc.)?

Those doing the imperializing (i.e. our government) do not care if military personnel is attacked, they don't care if civilians are attacked, they don't even care if civilians are attacked on U.S. soil.

What they do care about is MONEY, and the only thing that will stop them is if they are losing MONEY - lots of it. It seems as though if their projects were unable to survive completion, it would make it less worthwhile for our gubmint to continue colonizing other lands.

What do you think?

3. Okay, how come
there are tons of responses on posts that keep basically rehashing the same things over and over, but when a post comes up that addresses something not on today's agenda, it gets ignored?

Maybe someone could answer that question, at least...
