Thats right, Bobert. Eventually the conservatives will see that right wing Fundamentalists and Islamic Fundamentalists are not so far apart in their attitudes. They all think they are the most righteous and most able to rule.

If the aim of the Taliban was to divide America, I would say they have done a very good job of that. They understand divide and conquer as well as we do.

The U.S. admin. thought they could achieve the same thing by dividing Kurds, Sunnis and Shittes but they did not understand that the Iraqis are actually much smarter than that. When it comes to the Middle East, the invader is always the odd man out. Thus the insurgency.

In fact, if any country decided to invade the U.S. (for its own good) I'm sure the States would pull together and become united once again. Is that what it will take?
