With 4 planes hijacked and crashed... its quiet possible we will find out who was behind it, or at least what nationality, with stuff like black boxes, (not that all of them will be recoverable) airport cameras and security... and the couple of phone calls passangers on the planes managed to get out,, they should be able to piece it together.... Some interesting speculation that has come to light, was about the guy they caught who tried to bomb the WTC last time in 93, His two plans were to distroy US planes and bomb the WTC, this is apparently a conglomeration of those plans.. and They have links between him and the Iraqi Government..... If it does turn out he (Saddam) was behind it, I hope they take him out... I mean morality is all good and proper, but that particular moral is not worth the lives it is costing us,, which is apparently well over 10,000 deaths so far.... There were Palestinians cheering on telly before when they heard what had happend.... how can ANYONE, think that the deaths of 10,000 workers, securaties, businessmen and others is something to cheer about? Stuff like that is amost guarenteed to ensure that they will never get any sympathy from other countries... and to cheer like that over this is almost proof that they don't deserve it. Its so ironic, most of this around the world is about religion in some form or another... Pretty much all religions preach that "thou shalt not kill" or words to that effect... What gets lost in the translation that people can take that to mean that anyone who isn't of your religion doesn't count?? This would makes me so sad sometimes... regards Frank -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Charles A.

We should be careful when fighting monsters, not to become one in the process, Simply nuking someone will not solve the entire problem, even if that is a reasonable part of the solution. Even then, it should not be taken lightly. There is more than one base of evil in the world and some of them are very well disquised. I think the people who are offering prayers are in the proper attitude to receive the wisdom to deal with this situastion. ShalomOut Chal Elder PCUSA Registered Linux user #217118
