Horrifying Terrorist Attacks on the U.S.Sep 11th, 2001 at 8:03 AM by Allakhazam

This is not game news, but is more important. I am putting this up here because many people are trying to figure out what is going on and this way we can share what we know. Here's what I know so far: - At about 8:45 a plane crashed into one of the World Trade Center towers. 14 minutes later, andther plane crashed into the second tower. - Another plane crashed into the Pentagon soon after that. - A bomb went off at the State Department. - Both World Trade Center Towers have now completely collapsed, presumably killing everyone who was unable to evacuate in time, and also the firemen and police who were at the towers trying to help people evacuate. - Another plane has gone down somewhere in Western Pennsylvania. Possibly just a coincidence or possibly an attempt to hyjack it to another target. Words cannot express the horror.

this will not work.

most of those people dont HAVE families.
they are trained from their childhood on, to one day commit suicide in the name of the cause, whatever it will be.
they are told that this is the highest goal a man can achieve.
they would not care if you slaughtered their families before their very eyes, as long as they survived to run into a building with bombs attached to their body.
those men do not know the words "terror" or "fear".
they are not, i dare to say, even humans anymore.
they are tools, weapons, programmed to kill and destroy.
they are as afraid of death as a mechanic bomb is.
you cannot scare anyone who doesnt care for his own life or the lifes of those near him, for they have no lives.
they are "built" and stored until the day someone sends them out on a "mission".
nothing else does exist in their minds but that.

this is why they are so deadly effective.
dont try to understand them, none of us can.

Interesting point of view, however I heard a report on the news stating that 2 of the possible hijackers involved in one attack where brothers.

And even though they my be pyschotic by our standards. I have never met anyone that did not have some weakness or other. And often times your greatest strength can be your greatest weakness.

Beladan has family members that live in the Boston area, as do others.
and for thoses that don't have families you can attack there extremist beliefs.
Everyone knows it is bad form to discuss religion in Mixed cultures. It's gets almost everone upset even one that are aetheist. And an enraged fanatic will make many more mistakes and be easier to eliminate. The strong beliefs when challanged on a personal level will be too much. They will be the ones to start behaving rashly dragging the calmer ones that don't have family to lose down.

War is not easy
In convientional wars you have land, sea, and air operations.
With this new War. We will have to add a newer component. We have to get inside the enemies head and mess with it. That should not you be too difficult, not that I underestimate the foe, but Hate and Stupidity are next door neighbors. I can give you some examples, but if you think about it you well already know what I am talking about.

a point i forgot to mention was this one:

if you kill one of them, he will not only become a martyr, but a hero.
on (austrian) tv i saw a report from one of their camps. 8-year olds (!) have been showed pictures of a fallen "battlebrother", his father and his family being CONGRATULATED for the mighty deed their son performed and the heroic death he died. he was PROUD that his only son died when he drove a car stuffed with explosives into a building.

and with everyone of their leaders or just simple comerades their anger and hatred will rise, and when it reaches a certain level things like NY will happen again.

terrorism is like a hydra. kill the leader, and another one pops, maybe even more insane than the last one.

if just killing those responsible for an act was the way to rid the worlds of terrorism, there would be no more terrorists, i assure you.

::sigh:: I've been reading your posts, Andnay, but I think you are off base. Another bad analogy in a long line of bad analogies (in reference to the hydra). In addition to going after the fanatics, we are going after those that support them. Those who don't think it's so cool to play catch with smart bombs.

Terrorism is a cheap, easy way for some countries to implement foreign policy. Those that host terrorists are just using them as a form of special forces, or a State Dept. What happened at WTC was an act of war by those countries. In fact, that is probably where US and NATO policy will now shift; you perform terrorist acts in a foreign country, you have just declared war. The world just got a whole lot messier; but after toppling a couple of these rogue governments... well, things won't settle down (they'll never settle down), but maybe we won't have planes falling out of the sky as often anymore.

There can be no world peace. People are just too mean.
