The attack on Mumbai is over. After the numbing sorrow comes the blame
game and the solutions. Loud voices amplified by saturation TV: Why
don't we amend our Constitution to create new anti-terror laws? Why
don't we arm our police with AK 47s? Why don't we do what Israel did
after Munich or the USA did after 9/11 and hot pursue the enemy?
Solutions that will lead us further into the abyss. For terror is a
self-fulfilling prophecy. It thrives on reaction, polarization,
militarization and the thirst for revenge.
well we don't need to create a new anti-terror law because
We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect Union,establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to our selves and our prosperity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
In this preamble it covers all the laws we need to combat terrorism.
we have not had a president sense Ronald Reagan who was willing to battle terrorism. Here is how he dealt with it.
When our citizens are abused or attacked anywhere in the world on the direct orders of a hostile regime, we will respond so long as I'm in this Oval Office. Self defence is not only our right, it is our duty. It is the purpose behind the mission under taken tonight, a mission fully consistent with Article 5I of the United Nations Charter.
I warned that there should be no place on earth where terrorist can rest and train and practice their deadly skills.I meant it. I said that we would act with others, if possible, AND ALONE IF NECESSARY to ensure that terrorist have NO SANCTUARY ANYWHERE.
So what we need is a leader that has a set (balls) and is willing to protect the American people and not worry about what other countries think.
