[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 39624, member: 126"] Re: Gibson raided From our frame of reference all acts of terrorism seem irrational, while we see a soldier serving in our military is rationally performing a job. They see us as irrational, or ignorant, for not believing as they do. While there is not just one homogenous "they", there is enough "them" to not relax just yet. The easiest way to get you ass kicked in a fight is to not realize you are in a fight. I've lost track of how many countries we've popped drones into (Sudan, Yemen, Pakistan, Libya, Afghanistan, etc? ). Cheaper than troops and land wars, and I guess it finesses that pesky "war powers" act. I suspect my sweet old grandmother (RIP) may have had some dynamite laying around the farm too. If your grandmother lived in an apartment in the city, or had 2 tons of it laying around, then maybe she did have a mean streak. Back in the old days, dynamite was a farm tool. JR [/QUOTE]
