I had a beer with a guy at the American Legion Bar the other day. He had just returned from his third tour in the war zone. During our conversation he commented that if the cowards would just come out and fight, instead of using roadside bombs and such, then the US Army would kick their ass. I did not say to him, and I don't want this to take away from my admiration for his sacrifice, but what about a missile fired on a hut from an unmanned drone?

Take a look at the emotion on the face of the guy on the left...yeah, that just about says it all.

The father of the Nigerian who attempted to blow up a Delta airliner had emailed US authorities to warn them about his son's extreme anti-American views. The father happened to be a very wealthy banker. Can you imagine the email arriving at the US Government's office:
GOOD AFTERNOON, I AM A WEALTHY NIGERIAN BANKER...
