Ivan-
I did read the info on Delta. The difference between you and I is that it saddens me, if true; for you, it is affirmation that every conspiracy you've learned about thru "short wave" must be true.
I'm still waiting for your confirmation that Dianne Feinstein holds an Israeli passport as reported at
http://www.thefiringline.com:8080/forums/showthread.php?threadid=23799 . I don't doubt your zeal and good intent, but these are the types of attacks that we've all come to despise in our enemies. Therefore, when I see them from my friends, I ask for a reality check. This, to me, is only natural.

Don't know any ATF agents. But the FBI guys that I *do* know are above reproach. They should not resign from the agency any more than you and I should renounce citizenship, for the actions of our government. When we broadbrush
them in this manner, we grant them every right to broadbrush
us as slothful, ignorant, sheeple or, better yet, criminals....after all, all they need to do is read the papers to see how many attrocities "we" commit.
You can call abuse of power for what it is (and you should). You can call murder for what it is (and you should). But when you call an entire class of citizens
or LEO's the enemy, you've just pissed on a whole bunch of friends...and engaged in the same demonizing that we decry in the antis. Think about it.
