The title. It got 2 points for the play on words from the first thread, though.~ If Tehben spits eggs at you, jump on them and throw them back. ~ Eventis ~ Eventis Dungeons & Dragons 6th Age Campaign: Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4: (Unspeakable) Horror on the Hill ~Comment

No, but Al Qaeda does like it when Western countries vote socialist. Makes their work easier.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)Comment

joncha, the fact is that Al-Queda will see it that way.
As will their allies, and all the small out-of-the-way places where they do their recruiting.
...and then there's the Basques, who are undoubtedly thinking, "just ten bombs on a couple trains gains THIS?"No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.Comment
