  Again Paul "Perhaps you would do well to refelect on history"......It was 
the 'attackers' who succeeded in their goal of destroying the Alamo and it 
was the defenders whose cause ultimately gained victory. Don't take my word 
for it just look at any map and see where Texas starts and Mexico leaves off. 

  Have I missed something here...... did we fly some of their planes into 
some of their buildings killing thousands of innocent people? "Their Alamo" 
indeed!!...hopefully more like the battle of San Jacinto..............

  No nation is perfect and no national policy is without fault........... As 
an example name one western/non arabic/non islamic nation which still 
practices slavery and then name one Arabic/Islamic nation which practices 
slavery. The lists will be drastically different as the western nations will 
contain no names. Is there a message there?? While you are at it name one non 
islamic nation where followers of Islam are on trial for being Islamic and or 
preaching 'True' Islamic belief..........now name one Islamic nation where 
Christians are currently being held for trial for preaching 
Christanity......again the lists are very lopsided with one containing no 
names.........aren't they?
