Agree 100%! Another 9/11 would be bad for America, bad for the world. And I would do anything to help stop the next attack; if I knew or suspected some Islamic/Neo-Nazi/Christian fundamentalist were planning a major attack on the US, I would become the
world's biggest tattle tale!
And I
also suspect the bush administration and/or his neocon lackeys would do
anything to ensure those attacks were succesful, i. e. they would
impede me in my efforts to stop the attack--the innocent lives lost and the increased racial hostilities resulting from another 9/11 would be an insignificant cost to them compared to the
political benefits they would reap from such an attack.
