I agree with Lou on Pronouns, and your sarcasm doesn't help at all. I've
been complaining about this use of "we" at various public forums since
the early  '70s. I don't see why even liberals should want to share a
pronoun with Murder, Inc. in Washington, D.C.

And if the U.S. is going to continue to support various murderous
regimes around the world (e.g., Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Israel, Pakistan)
then if the government's central objective would be to quiet terroism
its first move would have to be a propaganda coampaign at home to teach
the u.s. public to be realistic about what serious attacks (terrorist or
otherwise are) -- that is, an attack that only kills a few thousand
people is run of the mill in most of the world, and it better become
something the u.s. public can take without freaking out.
