So you don't know who the terrorists work for. An effective terrorist programme can and is best funded by money bags. You can borrow from international funds to manage terrorist insurgancies, cha ching cha ching
I wish I had big money.

If I had the cash, I would suppress the Russians. You can';t allow that kind of metal.

First a better beer ncooler with more capacity and then world subjhugation. All carefully laid out. Soon this contenent will be mine.



When terrorists are dead they won't be funded by anybody. Kill them all and kill the ones who finance them. The world need fewer people anyway.

I guess it is because I am older than most people at CC, but terrorist attacks by various groups are nothing new. The only thing that I find suspect is that current acts of terrorism seem exclusively linked to Muslims and ignores the fact that in the past fifty years the following groups were actively involved in acts of terrorism:
1. the Red Brigades - active in various nations from Italy and Japan to Germany and Brazil
2. The KKK - too many groups and attacks to properly list here
3. the PLO and other Muslim groups (yes - Muslims are involved in terrorist attacks, but they are far from alone)
4. Various leftists groups operating in Latin America
5. And then there are the multiple acts of terror perpetrated by numerous right-wing governments against their own people in nations
like Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Mexico, Honduras and several other Latin American nations.
6. Thousands of terrorist acts directed against their own people in various African nations

This is a partial list, but enough to get the point across, I hope.

In fact we're more safe from terrorism now than we've ever been.

It's literally not even a problem.

Funny thing is that I don't recall social conservatives wanting to punt Catholics back in the day because of the IRA.

Maybe because you don't understand what went on in that conflict and how it differs from Islamic Terrorism.

If you weren't a moron lots of things would make sense to you.
