Are all the people resisting American presence in Iraq "biological" terrorists?
What percentage, in your opinion, of the near 15-20,000 of Iraqis and Afghanis
killed posed a "biological threat" to U.S. static social patterns? 100%? 50%?
10%?
There are significant biological-social conflicts occuring daily in much of the
U.S., say in NYC. Should the police the authorized to napalm Manahattan Avenue
to protect us?
