I, username Willravel, formally declare war on the United States of America. I have neither the inclination, nor the means to wage such a war, but I declare it none the less. I intend to take no action with this declaration. It is a declaration and a declaration alone.

No, I believe in acting on
credible threats. The Taliban weren't a credible threat, and my opinion on that is shared by the intelligence community under Clinton, and under Bush (until 2002, when they said "no" to turning over Bin Laden). Demonstrate to me why you considered the Taliban to be a CREDIBLE threat.
