Maybe we should single out ninjas? I'll bet we can single out kids. Remember that teen from San Francisco that we found in the middle east that had joined the al queda? Give me a break.

Abu Sayyaf in the Phillipines is an Islamic fundamentalist group, and so is Al-Qaeda, and so was the kid from Frisco. I don't believe that any one group is in fact entirely singled out, just as no group is entirely omitted. I'm sure there is Intelligence at the highest levels montoring any and all threats to National Security. As for Fear, I don't see anything inherently wrong with Fear; it's whats kept human beings alive since the days of the cavemen. A rational apprehension of a proven danger is an entirely logical emotion. It would be a neurosis only if the anxiety was based in fantasy.
