Like Asian and Russian communities, Muslims in America have high positions and earn money to live the American Dream (the hard way that is...)

I thought the reason was that AQ has run out of virgins.

Maybe MILF's are trendy among the extremists at the moment and the thought of virigins are no longer so appealing.



Best anti-terror program may be for the goverment to sponsor more free MILF sites in arabic.

I went down to Miami to work after Andrew hit. I met a self proclaimed 82 year old virgin. Maybe if we send em 72 of them they will change their philosophy.

All jokes aside. I think it's because American Muslims are not inclined to attack their country. I said before that the attack when it comes will be from someone born in America.  Either the sons or daughters of immigrants from an Arabic country or more likely a white or black American convert. Converts as a rule tend to be more enthusiastic than people born into a religion.

I also think the whole American thing of flag waving, 'I pledge allegiance...' , 'proud to be an American', stuff that is indoctrinated into kids from youth has it's effect. While Europeans often smirk at all this overt patriotism. It works and is the best way to keep united as wildly diverse a country that the USA is.

The more American you feel the less likely you are to betray 'your' country.

In Britain after the London bombings there have been strong suggestions that Britain copy the United States in it's promotion of a strong patriotic tradition among it's people. It was frowned on for a long time because the extremists and the racists had hijacked the flags and symbols. The same could be said for a lot of European countries.

But as I said when the next attack in the continental USA comes. It will probably come from a convert who is neither Arab or Asian.

Could also be that it took 8 years between the last two terrorists attacks on US soil that were from muslims, it may just be a matter of time.

We've been lucky. Ridge speculated last year that the homeland's post-9/11 immunity from terror attack may simply have been luck.



Ridge is an idiot. He makes it sound like all the things that have been done since 911 mean nothing and its all just luck?

the sleeper cells may very well have been dealt with and the survivors shipped out to the Git and none of us would know anything about it.  Fine by me.....disappear em for good afaic.

What is far more likely all these years after the first WTC bombing is an infiltration from Canada or Mexico of islamo facist suiciders.

Im not so sure it means nothing as much as the fact that no matter what things are done if someone wants to do something bad enough  for long enough. eventually they will.

Im sure part of it may have to do with luck. Getting the right info at the right time or getting the right info and being able to make sence of it before something happens as opposed to after ALA 9/11

but I do agree. Ridge is an idiot

Sure, some is luck, but it's not all luck, implying it is, also implies all the things that have changed like the patriot act mean nothing, and if thats the case why do we have them?
