      Yeah, but why are they spending so much on bombs? Why aren't they applying more technology to the true solution to terrorism, which is of course, spying on the American peopple? I mean, that is part of the solution, is to spy on us right, and just like the war on Iraq, it's because we all love democracy so much, right?
