[Superman]

You all know I am not nearly the "hawk" that some of my friends here are. We liberals get cast as ridiculous peaceniks that oppose any kind of confrontation. Lambs to the slaughter. Oblivious of the brute fact that evil exists and fighting is sometimes necessary for peace. (By the way, Jesus had some suggestions in this regard that would certainly place him in the most radical and extreme of "dove" categories, and his whole body of liberal teaching remains as the "Great Untried Social Experiment")

At any rate, some of us real-world liberals can get plenty angry, and would support some effective means of eliminating or controlling these cowardly and evil terrorists. For example, like Warren said many months ago, I would very much love to see our nation deal with these terrorists like the Israelis dealt with the terrorists who killed the athletes in Munich. One by one they were hunted down and killed in their boots.

Further, while I am grossly uncomfortable with the freedom-reducing provisions of the so-called "Patriot Act," at least as they apply to Americans, I would not assert any freedom protections for terrorists or even people in other countries. Intelligence gathering regarding non-Americans suspected of terrorism, in my view, can happen in any effective way our intelligence community wants to gather it.

Sure this means there will be mistakes made and great care needs to be exercised. But terrorists also need to feel like the one with their name on it is just around the corner. And the world needs to be sure that we consider terrorist hunting season to extend all year with no need to buy tags.

Invite them to meetings and just blow up the entire building. Publish daily scorecards. Have competitions between various paramilitary groups. All ordinance should be dipped in pig blood.
