I do agree that we have gone a bit overboard combatting terrorism (Patriot Act anyone?) but patronizing and calling people stupid hurts your side 100 times more than it could ever help.

Back to Chroneme, are you suggesting, with your ""s that terrorists are justified in the attacking of civilians?
I'm not saying that. I'm saying that politicians do more to instill terror than the terrorists themselves. Their actions are not justified. If politicians gave people a realistic perspective, the terrorists would give up because their attempts to instill fear had failed.
