Chertoff Wants To "Plan" For IED's In America

Thanks to Texasfred for pointing out the story.

Mr. Chertoff, you have outdone yourself once again. Nobody else that has held the seat that presides over our security and well-being in this country has made as many stupid, incoherent, and thoughtless statements as you have within the years of this administration.

The only thing that is funnier in this statement than the idea of a new "blueprint to fight IEDs" is this collective idea that they have of stopping IEDs by "planning ahead." Unless we plan on living in a fear based society like Israel where we will wait in lines for hours to simply go into a store; the only way to stop IEDs is to stop the people behind them.

Yes that means kill them.

Nowadays the statement that I have just made will come across as "reactionary" and politically incorrect, but back in WWII, when our government actually allowed us to fight a war, it was the main objective of the mission. Nowadays we live in this dream land of "spreading peace and democracy" rather than focusing on the first establishing play of the game which is to destroy our enemy.

But Mr. Chertoff would much rather work on something other than striking fear into the hearts of these people and making them tremble at the idea of pissing us off with another attack. He would much rather set up committees of people to harass American citizens into why they are carrying a cell phone with them, or a PDA, razor, or God knows what else, because it just might be an IED.

Here is a little bit of a newsflash for the Bush administration.

IEDs are designed to be subtle and unpredictable. That's why they are called IMPROVISED EXPLOSIVE DEVICES!!!

But apparently if the big government spending and open border policies hadn't made them liberal enough, this administration wants to use the same ignorant philosophy that the anti-gun lobby uses.

It's the weapon, not the person behind it.

Apparently this administration wants to wage a war not against terrorists but against IEDs. Maybe they would also be interested in joining the anti-landmine coalition and the Global Weapons Ban Pact. Because we all know that disarming rather than destroying is the best way to deal with people who will stop at nothing to kill us.

Chertoff, I've got a suggestion to you. Next time you have a thought, just let it go. Start listening to the American people and start fighting this war like a war. Stop with the one world and thousand points of light BS of the first Bush administration and start kicking ass and taking names like Reagan, Roosevelt, and Truman. We need these people to fear us not step on us.

The only way to stop the IED is to stop the terrorist. The only way to stop the terrorist is to kill him.

Simple as that.
