I just read this....
....and I realize all the conspiratorial talk about Bush's new Executive Orders is mostly based on fear, I also know that we need to be prepared to SOME degree.
What irks me, is that once Bush gets this under his belt, it might make him feel bolder to CHALLENGE another super-power, the six gun Texan he is. Did you hear what gorbachev said about him?
Anyway, there should be NO nuclear attack on any broad level if we keep our nose clean. A small terrorist attack IS possible, but not to the degree your fantasy seemed to take.
