US troops are currently being taken out of mothballs (so to speak...) and
are undergoign retraining before being shipped to the area, the truth is the
US is not yet ready for a retalitory strike...

calling for Bin Ladens head on a platter and describing the upcoming war as
a 'crusade' ??? Are you sane?

>wheras the Taliban has tried to start WW3 by calling for a holy
> war. So tell me now, who is the insane party??

err... the Taliban has actually said that it will start a Jihad IF and only
IF Afghanistan is attacked or if Bin Laden is harmed or seized without
proper proof being shown. They have stated that if the US supplies proof of
his guilt then he will be brought to trial (I'm aware that such a trial
might well be a mockery of justice but how and ever until that is shown to
be a fact...)

> The facts speak for themselves, as they have allways done.........

which facts would they be?
