Funding
One of the local Muslim "leaders" was on the radio today.
He was asked his opinion as to why some young men would take the jihad path as opposed to fitting into society like everyone else.
He blamed it on lack of funding for youth programs.
Is this now the catch-all for all society's ills? No funding for the basketball court? Take a look at most of these terrorists. They don't seem so poverty-stricken to me.
But hey - you know all that money that could have gone to "youth programs"? Well, I guess we're now going to have to spend 100s of millions on protecting ourselves from you assholes now.

Bin Laden himself was no poverty victim. Those "leaders" are simply throwing out red herrings in a desarate attempt to divert our attention from the issue at hand, namely radical fundamentalism.
In another predictable move, our "leadership" would again attempt to control the tools rather than deal with the criminals. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&cid=1845&ncid=1845&e=2&u=/cpress/20060605/ca_pr_on_na/terror_arrests_fertilizer

The red herring and the "here I am the downtrodden" are favourite ploys in situations such as this. Take a look at the CAIR website at http://www.cair.com for some great examples. THen take a look at http://www.anti-cair-net.org for some truth.
