No, no, no. This is all planned. After all, how can you have a war on terrorism in order to clamp down on freedoms, if there is no terror? How can you incite patriotism and support of the government? How else can you bring about the police state? And while you're at it, you can make most people far more maleable if it happens during an economically shaky time. And having a war that costs nearly a trillion dollars plus another billion every two weeks or so might just do the trick. Of course the above is all hypothetical, nothing like this could happen in real life. ----------------------Kaos-Keraunos-Kybernetos--------------------------- + ^ + :25Kliters anthrax, 38K liters botulinum toxin, 500 tons of /|\ \|/ :sarin, mustard and VX gas, mobile bio-weapons labs, nukular /\|/\ <--*-->:weapons..
