situation status: from unstable to getting volatile. Now, there are TWO US created hotspots on this planet. Bt then the entire "terrorist" issue has been mismanaged, mishandled from the onset. "getting them over there before they attack us here " is a very weak, and incompetant strategy. The USG blew it when it decided on a unilateral approach.. It had the support of the world post 9-11 and all it had to do......is work out an international agreement /strategy and deal with it collectively. But the cowboys like to ride alone. as it stands, the US has very little support on this planet. (and even less sympathy)
