TERRORISTS!

If the idiots in College Park take to the streets and vandalize things because their stupid team won or lost a friggin game, does that make them terrorists?

While I kinda like socialists, I'm really worried that in Spain the socialists are being credited with a landslide win based on the terrorist attacks. Now the new government is already declaring that they're pulling their troops from Iraq. What I find scary is that a terrorist attack is going to be sucessful in changing the ruling party and getting a country to pull out of Iraq. Right or wrong, they could have pulled out any other time and it wouldn't matter, but in response to a terrorist attack sets a horrid precedent.

What's to stop the terrorists when blowing shit up becomes a viable way to get your way?

I think that the U.S. pressured them to send troops in the first place. We threatened countries that if they didn't send troops that various would happen...mostly economic,etc...I think that that is a form of terrorism.

I agree with you completely. Now that terrorists have gotten their way in way country, will this reinforce their ways? I worry about this, especially since they seem to need so little prodding to kill innocent people anyway?
