Fear Based Nation

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Our nation is based on the fear of terrorism. Everybody is afraid that we will be attacked by SADUI ARABIA again, although several people think it was Afganstan that did it to us. 
I was watching Nightline, or whatever it was called (20/20?), after ABC news yesterday night. It was about the threat of terrorism. They had about 5/6 people there to answer questions about the threat, or something like that (I have a bad memory: I had a 24 hr. flu that's been going around here, and I was half asleep). Anyway, one of the men said that America should be prepared for another attack within 30 to 60 days. So I said OK. 
I'm not worried about terrorism, like some people are. It's a threat, and that's all it is. Yes, they'll get us back soon, but in all honesty, WE DESERVE IT.

	because after 9/11 people realized how vulnerable we really are. too many of us live with this idea that we are in the safest country in the world. and we let thousands of immigrants into our country everyday. anyone of them could be a terrorist, or be carrying some kind of deadly infectious disease. biological warfare is the worst threat our country faces. a terrorist could be purposely infected with an uncureably deadly virus and sent here to infect hundreds, maybe thousands of people. and who would know about it until its too late? there are other kinds of terrorists besides bombers and plane hijackers. the best you can do is keep your eyes open. in this day and age noone can be trusted. its sad.
