Ah I see, you are not familiar with the doctrine of being defiled or being unclean. Christianity does away with this concept, as being saved by Jesus is the ultimate cleansing in that faith.
Please read up on other religions. You will find certain dietary and behavior restrictions, which if violated, do send the person to the hell of their faith if they do not get themselves cleansed. Certain strict factions of Islam have this. Really!

Events like this bring out my evil side
First, As noted here, The Russians already bombed Afghanistan back to the stone age. and the Taliban are not the Afghans. The Taliban are a bunch of psychopathic nuts, hated by the majority population.
Some more interesting proposals(only half tongue in cheek) are to builds special monuments to the WTC dead, consisting of cities razed perfectly flat and with enormous amounts of salt to make sure no one lives there again. Some people have objected to this. It is worth discussion.
Another idea is based on historic precident, seen in a letter on this page (towards the bottom). - It is based on the idea that we must use cultural factors as well force to fight the war:
Tactic #1 Has a Historical basis. During the pacification of the Philippine Islands 1900-1914 the majority of the bloodiest attacks were carried out by Moros... An Islamic confederation of tribes who did not want their lifestyle of Dacoitery, Piracy and Slavery changed. They had MOKERS... People who would work themselves into a religious fever with dreams of ISLAMIC Paradise, and Literally Run AMOK, killing everyone within reach. So inspired were they that you not only had to kill him, you had to push him over. It was MOKERS that forced the U.S. Army to adopt the.45 Colts Automatic Pistol M-1911. What stopped them was the tactic of Wrapping one of these MOKERS (After you capture him and yes it was possible) in the skin of a freshly killed pig and hanging him in Public view. The touch of the Pig Pollutes a believer so badly that he/She must spend 5 days in a Mosque cleansing and praying... To die in such a state gives a direct path to the deepest part of Islamic Hell.
If we catch a TERRORIST, Wrap him in Pig Skin and hang him from the nearest Lamp Post, Preferably on CNN with Arabic Subtitles.
This sends a message any self respecting emperor would wish. I.e. MESS WITH AMERICA and we will Send you Directly to YOUR HELL!
Tactic #2
For countries that know things and don't cooperate? Modify Tanker planes to carry Sterilized Pig Urine, and let them know that We will make every dwelling Uninhabitable (to the religious). There are several modifications of this... Dipping bullets in Lard for example, Writing Anti-Terrorist messages on
bombs in Bacon Grease, the opportunities are endless.
Some people say that this will offend the rest of ISLAM. I suspect not. From all reports a good portion of Islam is against the terrorists and wishes them in Hell as much as we do.
[...]
As you Said, This goes beyond Justice, I say it is a matter of Honor and Blood. If we are to win this, we must strike at them with tactics that strike fear into them at a CULTURAL level. Brute force won't do it.
With Respect,
Harry Reddington BBiBS
Incidentally this really is from Harry Reddington...
Bnai Brith didn't only take one of the posts, but even took a statement out of context to prove that IslamWay.com is a terrorist website!...
Like we have never seen this before.!
But be sure to thank them for the free advertising! Especially once it is made clear the the comments were rhetorical questions in the middle of a heated discussion.
The may feel rather silling about it after the fact.
The correct argument to present to congressmen and senators and their aids must be found. Otherwise it will not penetrate the illogic of terror.
We must point out that we should not destroy the very things we value in order to preserve them. This is the old logic of the Vietnam war: "we had to destroy the village to save it"
The best way to save america to to protect and reinforce those freedoms and values we cherish so much.
We must also counsel finding the right target to attack. We must point out that the only abopsolute security is to turn Americas into a prison camp, with every innocent safely in their cell.
As it has been pointed out, the airline security measures worked perfectly. The terrorists knew that all of the passengers would be safely un-armed. Unfortunately, many of the knee-jerk reactions only wind up making the world safe for criminals, not for the rest of us.
One easy solution to outside interference is to cover your walls in egg trays (you know, the cardboard bumpy ones) wrapped in tinfoil. It's
cheap and looks really nice too!

But why Egg trays? why not just cover the walls with a simple layer of tine foil?
I can recall just a few years a go handling a tech support call for a vrml editor product (for vrml 1.0) This poor gal was doing a fancy vrml front door as the main entry for the university library, complete with books, tables, etc with links, and walk-about navigation. At the time I spoke with her, she was editing on a winbox, and uploading to a unix server, and was running into problems because of the case-sensitivity of Unix vs Windows. Typical stuff.
She wanted this to be the main interface for the site, even for dialups. This was a time that 14.4 was still somewhat common, although they were dropping out.
She had no problems making it run quickly over the LAN, of course, to her hot top of the line box, but had lost sight of the fact of dialup speeds. Her file was 1 meg, and growing. When I informed her of the typical 14.4 speed (14.4 = roughly 100k/minute under the best conditions) she flipped. This would be ten minutes to load on a 14.4 modem. Even with a 56k modem, that would be 2.5 minutes to load.
Then you load the next page.
Yes, I know of pages with 1 meg java script files.
I think this is part of the two different design philosophies. One is to design for everyone, the most users possible. The other is to design for the power users, for the elite, the people who have the hottest software with the hottest hardware, etc.
The widest adoption requires the moving away from designing for hi end. but them you get the old arguement that if everyone has it, it is obsolete.
I have seen a situation where a 900 mhz wireless phone and a wireless keyboard/mouse combo had some interferance problems, mostly in the headphone audio.
So the obvious question is if there are other similar problems possible/probable with all these other wireless devices.
Of course, technically, it is possible, but I am wondering about the practical worries, be it from the office next door or whatever, given the coming explosion in the range of wireless devices.
If I recall right, each war the US has fought in, such as WWI, and WWII, has resulted in some reduction of Rights that were not returned after the war.
I would need to research the details for specific examples.
Although, being on dial up, getting into any site was a struggle [smile]
as a secondary note, I have seen a few random reports of senseless actions. I trust that the Slash Crowd is wise and intelligent and educated enough to avoid this.
One should never accept the invitation to hate, especially in conditions like these. it becomes a slippery slope.
We all have exceptions that we make, for our favorite pet peeves and political causes. Even so, This is a big step to making things right. This does not mean that we do not take action to save ourselves and our friends. People may appoint us as their enemies, their opponents, even as their executioners.

As discussed briefly this morning on ABC News, the correct question regarding the buildings is not "why did they fall?", but rather, "why did they stay up?"
Apparently, for the vast majority of buildings in the USA, an impact by an aircraft, similar to what happened, would take them down almost instantly. The construction of these buildings saved lives.
I recall various comments where people object to probes visiting any planet where there may be any possible form of life, on the basis that we may cause contamination.
This I consider this to be rather foolhardy, to throw away the chance for access to another world because we are afraid that we might do something.

I am watching TV News on my local ABC News, and saw the second aircraft go into the building. Analysts on ABC saw the second aircraft loooks similar to a Boeing 767, or some form of Airbus. Currently both towers are burning in the top 20 or so floors of one building. The second aircraft appears to have hit within the top 30 or 40 floors, at 9:03 by my watch. The Northern Tower was hit about 8:40 - 8:45 eastern time. New York City has shut down all Airports, and the airspace, and are evacuating major public building
There are also unconfirmed reports of an aircraft being hi-jacked shortly before the incidents.

I still like my alternate idea, which is to deny Microsoft the benefit of their illegal actions.
How would this be done?
First have all OS related software rollouts under the supervision and approval by a special committee of supervisors, at least three from named each suing state, and three from the federal government. A nice unwieldy body to slow things down.
Second, prohibit them from rolling out any new versions or revsions or updates to any OS or Platfrom for a significant period of time, proportional to, and at least as long as the length of time that they have had their illegal advantadge in the market. I recommend 8 years
Third, - All licensing for the operating systems shall be permanent licensing, no rental licenses of any sort allowed, ever.
If this screws up.NET, tough. Penalties are supposed to hurt. And they deserve enough pain to get their attention, and focus it on the idea that they messed up.

The Security Systems Standards and Certification Act (SSSCA), is set to be introduced by Senator Fritz Hollings this fall. It makes it a civil offense to create or sell any kind of computer equipment that "does not include and utilize certified security technologies" approved by the federal government. It also creates new federal felonies, punishable by five years in prison and fines of up to $500,000. Anyone who distributes copyrighted material with "security measures" disabled or has a network-attached computer that disables copy protection is covered.
if we find life on Mars, we will never be able to colonise it. Expanding the human experience beyond the shores, the gravity well of this
