Re: Al Qaida website
I suppose there is something to the old axiom that, it’s better to have a snake in your garden where you can keep it in sight than hidden somewhere waiting to strike. But in this case, I’d say that being the host to this website is about as close as you can get to being unAmerican. There is a big difference between keeping the snake within eyeshot and feeding him outright.
Hey Jo, if you or any of your friends decide to start a petition to drive these rats from our cyberspace, I’ll sign on to it!
