:lol: Obviously,
Desert I would never say that politicians handle terrorism well. I'm going to watch that video when I get home since watching something anti-NWO at my university would get me alot of negative and...ahem... unwanted attention. :lol:
How would I deal with terrorism?
For one, I wouldn't subject my people or innocent people of the terrorist's country to any harm. If I knew my nation was going to be attacked, I would pay more attention to the warnings and work out compromises, if possible, by using diplomatic relations to try and pressure the terrorists into backing out (and don't tell me I might not have any information - terrorist attacks can ALWAYS be tracked. I refuse to believe that America cannot manage to get its intelligence officials to know about an attack before it occurs. they've got spies everywhere and know what is going on, they just choose to not see). Politicians should see it, you cannot block out reality. I think some of you might argue that at the same time you cannot quite warn the nation that they're about to be targets of some suicide bomber determined to kill all of them... it would trigger too much chaos within the country. But then again, keeping shut about it AND doing nothing about it within your government is absolutely unacceptable. If your real interest as a politician is the well-being of the people, that does not simply apply to not scaring them. It applies to managing the conditions from within your internal security, or with diplomatic processes... whichever you decide to go with it should be to the interest of the civilians you are paid to represent and protect.
Bottom line: You get a warning, act on it immediately. Don't rush into the terrorist's country immediately and start bombing civilians, that's not what I'm saying. I'm saying you get a presidential briefing saying that binLaden is going to attack the USA, then find out where the heck he is and question him, or if you're sure he's guilty punish him on the spot. Don't sit around and wait for it to happen before you take "action" and send troops over to his country.
A good politician might want to start within their country as well. Deal with the negativity you have at home bfore you plan on helping/attacking other countries. Deal with issues such as rape, poverty, murder, schooling, housing, natural resources, racism... etc. Clean the inside of the cup before the outside.
When you mind your own business, you have no reason to be attacked (unless of course your country has massive oil reserves... cause that automatically makes you an "enemy" of some sort :lol
.
This is just scratching the surface. I think there is alot more behind it than what I said, and I know its not as easy as I try to make it seem it is... but you've got to start somewhere. You obviously can't take back what you've done in politics, so America/israel/UK have already done what they've done, its too late to say they should have minded their own business. But for now, since they are being "threatened" by terrorists, they might want to deal with things more with diplomacy than with wars. Cause every time they come out of a war, they do so with even more enemies and troubles then they ever did before.
I'm talking like my government is perfect :lol: I say we round up all politicians and lock them in a storage house and play Barney all day every day. And if we can get away with it before the Human Rights activists get on our backs, we would have changed the world :lol:.
