I think this is simply fantasy. Its a nonsense. If you are getting your information from programmes like Obsession then I can understand why you fear that this might be the case but its a non starter. For a start although there are Islamic extremists who would love to see this happen they are massivly in the minority. The film has taken clips out of context and fused them together to produce a propergander scare film. Islamic extremists are being fought against by Islamic countries all over the Muslim world. They can't even suceed in taking on a Muslim country on the scale that you're worrying about let alone go to war in a conventional manner against the west.(With maybe the exception of Afghanistan which is a failed state) Also you make the mistake of lumping all Muslims (Or even all extremists togather) Islamic extremists have different goals and not that many of them are seriouly interested in a global take over of Islam. They are more interested in regional issues. ie:GIA in Algeria, Hamaz and Hezbollah in Israel and in the Lebanon. There are also differet sects of Islam and of Islamic extremists. Just look at the secatarian war that is developing in Iraq between Muslims. The war between Iraq and Iran was a good example of the fractured nature of the extremists. Understanding of the issue has been muddied further by the President and the media using the generic term Al Quieda for Islamic extremist groups regardless of thier cause, belifes or motivation. Al Quieda doesn't exist in the form that is popularly touted, it is now more of an ideology. The Terrorist threat is real but it is just that, a Terrorist Threat. It needs to be countered by Intelligence led Policing operations and by use of Special Forces in Intelligence led operations. Not by Aircraft carriers and tanks on the streets.

I can't belive just how bloody egocentric you Americans are. A thread about an international concern located on the other side of the world from you and still you ALL manage to turn it into a pissing match about you own BLOODY BORING internal political system which I for one am SICK of hearing about, quite frankly I don't think it will make one bit of difference if the Elephants or the Donkeys are running the Zoo. Give me a F**king break! (I responded to Kallend but it goes for all of you!) When an author is too meticulous about his style, you may presume that his mind is frivolous and his content flimsy.

I think that its a good thing that these countries are openly declaring their intent. We in the west should do everything to help them achieve Nuclear power for civil use. We shoud help them to develope Nuclear powerstations that are of no use in making Nuclear Weapons material (These do exist) Also if they are concerned with their security we should develop treaties with them ensuring their protection in return for not developing nuclear weapons or chemical and biological weapons.

Not to forget that in a house especialy if another person is in it somewhere the round that exits the target will carry on until it hits something or someone else. I agree with you on the 9mm option. Having dealt with many gunshot wounds I can say with confidence that calibre difference between .45 and 9mm is irrelevant if you hit the person in a vital area. I've seen people hit by several .45 rounds in the chest and survive and I've seen many people hit by one round of 9mm and die. I've even seen several people shot with .22 and die.

I'm with you on this one. Sure a shotgun with a lazer dot may look the dogs danglys but in a house (again how much room do you have in you house) a pistol in the right hands is going to be alot more manoverable. As for making intimidating sounds nothing is more intimidating as somone opening fire at you. Sounds like you might want to get some proper training. In fact do that and then make your mind up.

Of course we do. North Korea can't reach us I think its a bit of an ill informed response from the people in the survey as it doesn't take into account proliferation of Nuclear weapons production including the obtaining of fissile material to terrorist groupings and hostile nations. GWB however has made the world a far more dangerous place by destablising a region that is on our doorstep. To get to the USA enemies in the midle east must cross the sea for us they need only to get in a car or on a train. So its noot really suprising that GWB isn't the UK's man of the year.
