Re: Paris Under Attack....the hell?
I heard that hundreds of hostages are being held as well, at a popular night spot.
Explosions at the Paris soccer stadium (Stade de France).

Seriously, it's time to bring the hammer down. We have a big red button. Use it. Cut the head off the snake, for lack of better term. Then, close up shop to the outside world and become self-sustaining. We CAN do it, we just DON'T do it.

The big red button is useless. There's a reason nobody uses it.

CNN suggesting those were suicide bombers.
Per the interview on CNN attackers methodically stalking and slaughtering people in the theater.

There is a leadership position somewhere. I know it's not a country, but there is a general area. F 'em at this point. We can drill through glass. (c) bbdl

It's not us - right now it's the French. They have a heck of a mess on their hands. I'm curious if le response will be tepid or rabid.

We stick our nose in every business in the world. Let's help the French (again).
Seriously, though, it's coming to the point where we close up shop to the world, or go balls-out crazy. Either way is fine with me.

Re: Paris Under Attack....the hell?
In truth, no we cannot. The minerals used in our high-tech economy simply don't exist within our bountiful lands. Surprisingly (or not), China has huge deposits of some of the rarest metals in the world, and they're needed in our devices that we use daily. Our computers would require more power and weigh more without them. I just wish I could remember the names to these metals as there are two or three of them. We've built ourselves into a foreign dependency, unless we're willing to slide back to largely 1990s tech, or making it criminal to not recycle your tech gadgets once their life cycles have ended so that we can harvest the needed materiel.

Doesn't work that way. This is like fighting the Klan, if a billion other people worldwide peacefully worshipped Stone Mountain. What do you nuke? Birmingham?*
If you want a satisfying military solution, go for regime change in Saudi Arabia and Anastasia the entire Saud family down to their gardners.
(* Yes, I recognize this is attractive for non-terrorism reasons.)

I hope this is your trademark sarcasm, and not Bush Derangement Syndrome, because seriously - sole responsibility lies with those who have committed the crimes.
