Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld made his strongest public case Sunday for a plan, opposed by some in Congress and by Russia, to convert some Navy long-range missiles from a nuclear to a conventional role for potential use against terrorist targets anywhere in the world, The Associated Press reports.

What is scary about it? Isn't it scray now when they are nuclear?
Secondly, do you put a lot of faith into MosNews? They are hardly known for their objectivity towards their old "cold war foe"

The truth of the matter is, terrorism has become the threat #1 for the western world, including Canada. It only makes sense for the military to rethink its strategry and see whether it's best to utilize its massive nuclear arsenal in some other way.

It should be scary...it should be scary to the terrorist! Should deter them from launching attacks on us or anyone else. I am all for it! Russia will go along with it.

I don't feel very threatened by terrorists, but you should. We already said no to American missles on our soil. It shouldn't be using any nuclear weapons, for any reason. I really don't see the bias in that story whether its MosNews, or otherwise. Simply facts stated. And, thats just what the world needs, crazy little Bush with his finger on another boom button.

Let's be objective - Bush will be out of the office by 2008 and this program is probably a long term strategic approach towards nuclear warheads and how they are deployed and will occur well beyond bush. Secondly, most programs of that magnitude and importance have to approved by congress (or at least the Dept. of Defense needs to consult with Congress and the Secretary probably would have to testify on that issue).

You don't feel threatened by terrorism only because you live in the woods and don't follow the news closely. The police in Toronto just a short time ago uncovered the terrorist activity that was directed towards Canada. Look at what's been happening in Europe - from London to Madrid. It's certainly not just the American problem. In fact, because a relatively liberal immigration policy, Canada is in some ways more vulnerable.

I see you're back to those ridiculous statements of yours. I have 250 channels of tv.
I see more of the world news than you'll ever dream of seeing. That terrorist activity was a bunch of loonies just like the ones caught in the states. If we are so vulnerable then why are they attacking you? Well we all know that your congress are not real smart. They approved the Iraq war because Bush wanted it. Are you that naive that you don't see that Bush does what he wants? Wake up and smell the coffee, Spice. You can't make things better by deflecting the hatred the world feels toward America onto Canada.

Explain to me exactly what purpose there would be to launching a terrorist attack on Canada. What would be gained from that? We don't matter to anybody. It's American meddling in the worlds affairs that gets you targeted. We are in Afghanistan till '08, the people want us there. Ask Iraqis the same question. We are no threat to any terrorist organization or religion in the entire world. We are not so self centered that we think the world is out to get us.

You can't make things better by deflecting the hatred the world feels toward America onto Canada. I have already proven how little you know about Canada and other countries. Please refrain from advising people about anything but your little piece of New York. You are not knowledgable about much else. I see that your google button is always at hand, though. You sure use it a lot, but thats not a substitute for real knowledge, try to remember that.

I guess a hariy man from the woods knows more about terrorism than Canada's security agencies:

Everyone who is not a muslim is a target infedel...this is what they preach! It doesn't matter that you are in Canada-they want you gone from the planet...you BC are an infedel. Your heritage makes you this...so there for even if you convert to being a Muslim you are not a true muslim and there for you have to go. THis is what we are dealing with...this is what is scary...this is wht the terrorists want!

Well, your opinions are Google created. Have you ever had an opinion, or do you want time to Google yourself an opinion? How can you see the common man from your pedestal so high up. Aren't these links from the biased reporters that Canada is so famous for. Or from the incidious French Secret Police who travel the narrow border highways of Canada hunting for non french speakers, whisking them away to a Guantonamo like structure in the back woods of Quebec. You are truly laughable Spicey. Carry on, you truly do amuse me, somewhat like a jester.

Thats a ridiculous statement to make. There are thousands upon thousands of muslims in Canada, and not a single one of them wishes harm to us. So the Muslims in Canada want me dead. Don't be ridiculous. Terrorists preach threat, Muslims do not. That would be another racist statement from you. Carrying on for Seryi, are we?

My apologies, it seemed like you were saying that about all muslims. I'm not worried about terrorists, they are an incredibly small percentage of the muslim population worldwide. We will defeat them all eventually. Or God will do it for us.
