War on Terror or War on t'Euro? What price on life? If you consider the 
trillions of dollars at stake, a few thousand deaths at the World Trade 
Center (sic) must have looked pretty cheap to Hop-along Bush to ensure 
he had free reign to do what he liked.

I wonder what would happen if Britain adopted the Euro? Probably 
nothing, if the US has a grip on Russia and China's oily short and 
curlies as well, what chance does our little nuclear-capable island have?

I have never more fully appreciated the adage "One man's terrorist is 
another man's freedom fighter."
