I once read somewhere, (my memory is fuzzy, so I can't tell you if the source was good or not) that one of the beginnings of the decline (maybe financial, maybe power, again, I forget) of a country was when it closed its borders.<BR/><BR/>9/11 happened. It was horrible. American are going to die: either in wars to "protect us from terrorists," or from terrorist attacks. There's a line, though. <BR/><BR/>THOUSANDS of Americans have died in combat because of the few hundred who died at 9/11. Our freedoms have taken a HUGE hit because of 9/11 and Bush. Our privacy is now near nil because of 9/11.<BR/><BR/>The price for complete safety is too high. It's just too high. When are we going to see that? I really hope it's soon.Spy Scribblerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14299551957327543491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1124066428536267360.post-39854802136038600162008-12-31T09:21:00.000-06:002008-12-31T09:21:00.000-06:00Those parallels are creepy!
