Being fair game by virtue of being American is stupid. I suppose on this logic, stringing up black people and feeding them their genitalia is fine, by virtue of their dark skin.

This begs the question though, if so called extremists were given economic incentives (i.e. a job, money, TVs and Starbucks [kidding!]) would they be so inclined to fight wars if they know the 'good life' [TM] was just around the corner? Put another way, if extremists could live a cushy life like so many developed countries, would they still be extremists? Would the extremists still have so much support?

Oh wow. This just gave me an idea. Off to start a new thread.
