    Not sure how many voted in this poll but it appears that 3% of them are terrorists

    If a country’s leadership is unwilling to do to enemy combatants/spies/terrorists everything their enemies are doing to them, and beyond, to protect the citizens of said country, then I seriously question that, A)they are “at war”, B) that they intend to protect the citizens, C) that they are themselves not complicit at some level with enemies of said country, D) and that those “leaders” should not themselves be tried for dereliction of duty, and violation of the oaths they have sworn upon taking their offices

But Before You Say That…

  • Comments that are inappropriate, rude, completely stupid, or obviously meant to bait others into a flame war may be deleted.  If that happens to you and you want to throw a tantrum about “free speech,” do it on your own blog.  Basically, if you wouldn't say it to someone's face without the shield of anonymity, don't say it here.
  • If you are a new commenter or are using a new e-mail address, your comment will go to moderation.  Even regular commenters get stuck in moderation sometimes.  Please be patient; your comment will be published as soon as I can get to it.
  • Comments that will never get published are those that are posted under the name “anonymous” and those using an obviously fake e-mail address.
