        What else to do besides bombing the starving and crippled (the
Taliban and Osama have the money and the protection)??  Well, cut off their
funding.  Refuse to allow military aircraft to take off or land from
Af-land.  A world (well, as close as we can get) effort to track down
terrorists based there.  Enforcement of visa regulations for ALL, not just
people from the Middle East.
        Most, if not all of Europe has police registration requirements for
all who stay in hotels.  I know that sounds intrusive, but that law has
been credited with ending Italy's own terrorist activity in the 70s and
80s.  I agree that there's a lot of hysteria of the "bomb them back..."
sort.  But I think I hear plenty of people questioning this line, and I
think that there is hope that more considered and perhaps more effective
ways of conducting our war can be found.  As for Ron Owens of KGO, he is a
famous right-winger and no better can be expected of him.
