patmac: That is the problem Swiss, they would have no compunction in doing exactly that.....Hence the need for worldwide vigilance...And a zero tolerance toward Nuclear facilities in certain countries....
Why do you think the USA and the UK give so much cash to Pakistan???? only a thought.
wow..so essentially we are buying ourselves more time? a bribe for the world not getting nuked?
If you were living in a world under the control of mighty outsiders, trapped in a matrix with your friends and family starving and oppressed and killed for sport (in your view), and you have no resources, no sophisticated weapons... what would you do to draw attention to your alleged plight?
You have to admire the resourcefulness of the (in)human spirit!
The redcoats are coming! Hide, hold your fire until you see the whites of their eyes. (Our guns are crap!)
I'm sort of kidding and on the other hand stand in awe at the sophistication of the terror network OBL built from almost nothing, in an attempt to throw the west out of Arabia. OK, we helped him get started with some stingers to be directed at Russian targets...
Do you think the world will ever build institutions which will be responsive to hearing the grievances of common folk?
The way to quash terrorism is to do something different that what we've been doing.

interesting..what would you recommend the world does differently to handle this? im curious.

I'm running short on time... got an election to run. But in a nutshell I think the UN and world court system needs more teeth and less corruption. There's a lot more to it than that. Different cultures have different values.
perhaps they also should grown opium like the taliban?

I read that the Al Qaeda inspired group Al Shabaab of Somali are threatening to kill President Obama’s grandmother in Kenya in retaliation for the killing of Osama Bin Laden
patmac: Bingo....Well not exactly but if we do not support the moderates the Radicals will take over and Remember Pakistan has Nuclear weapons......
True..This is why I am worried about what is going on over there..If those radicals get their hands on the nukes the world is in trouble.. Makes me think this is probably one of the main reasons the radicals are so prevalent in that country? Are they trying to take it over and gain access to all this? What a horrible thought..Something does need to be done for sure.

wow..There are threats being reported online by the taliban more and more lately..Currently the Royals have been threatened too for their involvement in the war. Aparantly Prince Harry has been receiving threats since march of this year..
prince harry is 1 person. Why is he more important then they 80 that died?
Swissblueeyes: wow..There are threats being reported online by the taliban more and more lately..Currently the Royals have been threatened too for their involvement in the war. Aparantly Prince Harry has been receiving threats since march of this year..
Swissblueeyes: its crazy..from what the news article says two guys "blew themseves up" to kill almost 80 people? What kind of mentality does this? I'm now worried what the heck else is going to happen?
their mentality is illiterate,ignorance, and life for them has no value at all
I guess the establishment would retaliate differently if they killed prince harry instead of 79 more innocent victims?
Bodecia: He's not. But the establishment he represents means that if death threats are reaching up to these levels, or with any high profile figures, it means that they can get anywhere.
Swissblueeyes: actually the news reports said the taliban has threatened not only Harry but they also threatened the whole royal family..I am very saddened reading the article about the 80 innocent people who were killed during this attack today..
