Actually, I believe just the opposite...the radical Islamic fundamentalists, who
are the greatest current threat

to our national security, see the United States as weak and decadent, and will 
continue to attack us unless we

smack them down so hard that they will think twice before dicking with us again.
Removing Saddam from power will

go a long way towards this, and will be accomplished fairly quickly and easily 
once we make a commitment to

really act and not just saber-rattle.  Anyone who thinks that Saddam just 
stopped producing WMD on his own accord

is naive in the extreme.  We have numerous scientists who have defected from 
Iraq over the years, who tell us

that Saddam's vigorous WMD programs continue unabated.  The United States 
cannot, and will not, just sit idly by

and let Saddam Insane become the supermarket to the terrorist world.  He has to 
go, NOW!


As a person of German ancestry, I am shocked, appalled, and dismayed by 
Germany's attitude towards war with

Iraq.  Their government acts as if there is no danger.  What's it gonna take to 
convince them, a missile loaded
with anthrax or smallpox lobbed into Berlin???


There is no reasoning or negotiating with terrorists.  The only language they 
understand is FORCE, so it is FORCE

that they must be met with.  They are like a virus infecting the planet, and 
must be utterly destroyed, for the

good of the future of the United States and the world.  I, for one, want my 
children and their children to grow
up safe and free.

Just my .02...

Steve
