Tvo wroteWhile I regard Bush as a bumbling idiot, I don't know how much his successor will deviate from what will certainly be a continuing threat, perhaps for centuries, since it is basically a return to Middle Ages religious wars---the only cure for which is total elimination of instutionalized religion, and you know how likely that is---only in Soviet Russia were institutionalized religions extirpated or infiltrated, totally controlled and eliminated as a source of guerrilla warfare. Only since the savage repression of institutionalized religion has ceased, has religious guerrilla warfare resumed in Russia---stimulated by mild tit-for-tat reprisal in Chechen areas, tit-for-tat is a formula for endless war.

Indeed. So - "who's minding the store" here in
the U.S. while the same process is no doubt
going on *here* - and has been since ??
- and I don't mean 9-11 when it flexed its
muscles for what may not have been the first
time but certainly "got attention".
