Indeed, what most Americans fail to realize is that the "terrorist" have good historical rational reasons to hate American foreign policy. Using evermore repressive tactics to subjugate "them" will most likely not work. Just to avoid any misunderstandings, I don't condone the actions of terrorist in...

Bad luck for you I guess, just received my 2600HP-BF from Dustin yesterday and its dead silent. Went from a glorious 22" Diamondtron CRT 1600*1200 @100Hz, was worried that I would be disappointe...
