    Don't you think terrorism is not only a serious threat, but a worldwide threat?

    Why do you consider these people terrorists?
    Again, they are not people defending their home. They are terrorists because they do terrorist things, like strap a bomb on themselves and blow themselves up along with as many innocent Iraqi men, women and children as they can.

    During World War 2 actions of the resistance in various countries against the german occupation (and its local collaborators) were also considered to be terrorist acts.

    FUNNY.

    I forgot to mention earlier, back on the lazer topic...

    They are being designed right here in Arizona, I personally know two guys who helped design the lazer technology, and I also have met the founder of the private company...well it's military owned now. Anyways, they dont just design lazer's for shooting down missile's.

    They have another device in the works that basically shuts down any type of electronics having to do with airplanes. My best friend, the nephew of the founder, says he has seen the smaller prototype's at his lab. The smaller one's he tells me are designed like phazer's from star trek, in which you fire it like a hand gun and a visible lazer strems out of it, thus killing or stunning a person.

    another thing they are working on is a lazer security device. so if a person sneeks into a bank or maybe a home/office, the sensors in the building detect movement and a lazer beam flows all over the floor and takes down anybody walking around. pretty cool stuff

    thats all i know about it, oh and that he made around 1 billion dollars off his lazer's, my friend tells me his private yachte<(spelling?) is humungous

    I presume the laser ( You can't spell laser an American way using a 'z' as it's an acronym ) is only for targetting as light won't disrupt electronics - unless powerful enough to punch a hole

    Directed microwaves do the job real easy and most likely it's a G/THz pulse they fire.

    well i'm no electro-scientist or whatever they are called, so i have no idea what it's shooting out, all I know is that they are actual working prototype's

    Not many of those fighting the US invasion force are doing it by blowing themselfs up.

    Most aredoing what you have said you are doing yourself - picking up a gun, and shooting their enemy.

    As for blowing things up, how much do you think people must HATE the US to go and kill themselfs in this way?

    About this much?

    Millions of Iraqis believe that suicide attacks against [Coaltion] troops are justified, a secret military poll commissioned by senior officers has revealed.

    The poll, undertaken for the Ministry of Defence and seen by The Sunday Telegraph, shows that up to 65 per cent of Iraqi citizens support attacks and fewer than one per cent think Allied military involvement is helping to improve security in their country.

    It demonstrates for the first time the true strength of anti-Western feeling in Iraq after more than two and a half years of bloody occupation

    The survey was conducted by an Iraqi university research team that, for security reasons, was not told the data it compiled would be used by coalition forces. It reveals:

    • Forty-five per cent of Iraqis believe attacks against British and American troops are justified - rising to 65 per cent in the British-controlled Maysan province;

    • 82 per cent are "strongly opposed" to the presence of coalition troops;

    • less than one per cent of the population believes coalition forces are responsible for any improvement in security;

    • 67 per cent of Iraqis feel less secure because of the occupation;

    • 43 per cent of Iraqis believe conditions for peace and stability have worsened;

    • 72 per cent do not have confidence in the multi-national forces.

    The opinion poll, carried out in August 2005, also debunks claims by both the US and British governments that the general well-being of the average Iraqi is improving in post-Saddam Iraq.

    The report profiles those likely to carry out attacks against British and American troops as being "less than 26 years of age, more likely to want a job, more likely to have been looking for work in the last four weeks and less likely to have enough money even for their basic needs".

    Immediately after the war the coalition embarked on a campaign of reconstruction in which it hoped to improve the electricity supply and the quality of drinking water.

    That appears to have failed, with the poll showing that 71 per cent of people rarely get safe clean water, 47 per cent never have enough electricity, 70 per cent say their sewerage system rarely works and 40 per cent of southern Iraqis are unemployed.

    what I find interesting in the poll results is that the percentage in favour of suicide attacks in the British controlled areas is actually higher than that relating to the US sectors. I always had the impression that the british way of dealing with the local population was much better accepted than the US way, and furthermore that the areas occupied by Britain were mostly shi-ite communities, which in theory had more to gain from the fall of Sadam.

    I don't disagree but then it's all a matter of perspective isn't it.

    Go and ask the fighters alongside and they'll tell you he's still the same courageous leader, albeit softer now.

    Go and ask the US and they'll tell you he was an angel then.

    Go ask viewing nations and they'll tell you they don't care.

    Go and ask the Russians and they'll tell you to **** off
