No give them a 20 minute warning, that’s more than any of their targets, will ever get.
In seriousness I don’t advocate killing the world's Muslim population. What I do see is this: Saudi Arabia in general disliking the US. Sadly I see a line being drawn in the sand. IMO the Arab countries that are "helping" in the fight against terrorism are doing a dog and pony show for the time being. I have doubts that if things escalated globally; few if any of the Middle East (ex Israel) would be fighting on our side. This could include an attack on Israel to which the US would become involved. I don’t see the Arab countries that are cooperating are exactly happy about it. Which again IMO means they are buying time and waiting.
I not saying which direction is right or wrong as far as reasons for anyone’s actions that could turn into a frictional debate, what I will say is this: there are two ideals sparring on the battlefield Earth. Other powers are sitting in the shadows watching events unfold. Its said were at war; a new kind of war while that may be true it seems to me that sadly the only way things are going to be solved ( or destroyed) is with a major conventional conflict.
As far as my reply card to them: of the millions of Muslims that you’re referring to what percentage of them do you think would protect Osama if they could? How many do you think would turn him in because of their love and devotion to the US? Why hasn’t he been turned in?
I had this idea that a "bluff ?" be created that if another 9/11 happened we would give the appropriate parties notification that they need to clear out of Mecca now because that’s our first retaliation strike. Knowing the consequences perhaps not so many would be keen on helping Osama.
Of course it’s a dumb idea, just like it’s a dumb picture I made; but so is killing 100,000 innocent people.
