You do not defeat terrorism by rewarding terrorists, regardless of how many bleeding heart liberals argue otherwise. Want to know where that flawed approach leads to? Read UNIONISM DECAYED 1997-2007 - It's my first book and it explains what happens when you seeek to appease terrorists and call it peace. It's available right now for ATW readers so make sure you get your copy by emailing the editor! This is the book that dissents from the herd mentality that doing wrong can lead to being right. It doesn't and this book spells out WHY.

Pete, if I was ever charged with the task of producing a remake of the TV serial "The Prisoner", then you would be my first choice for the role of "number six", no question about it, as all your posts and comments very clearly mark you out - you ARE that character. That sense of rebellion and yearning for true freedom is deeply embedded in everything you say. - And that's a compliment, by the way, a very big one.
BUT...here's the rub..."number six" had to learn the hardest lesson of them all: who was "number one"?
