and the president just assured the nation the surge is working, and that there is political success in Iraq, but really that
does not mean we are completely safe. In fact, we are less secure than before September 11th in many ways, take for instance,
our schools. Sure they can withstand earthquakes, fires, and the like, but how about car bombs, nuclear explosions, armed
invasions? Do they have the sufficient technical equipment to properly prevent terror from striking our students? No. While
your school district may SAY it's safe and as secure as humanly possible, it is not. The sad truth is, if a group of Al-queida
or other terror group were to invade – say and elementary school, it would wind up like Beznian in Russia. Usama
Bin Laden even promised to do exactly what they did there, here. As unimaginable and unthinkable it may seem, it is possible
and could happen anytime, anywhere resulting not only in mass destruction of our educational infrastructure, but it would
also mean harm and death to thousands, even millions of innocent children across the nation. That is, unless we are prepared
both in terms of preparing ourselves and our children for the unthinkable, and preparing the structures to make them truly,
as secure as possible. It nay cost some hard-earned tax dollars, but isn't that worth it all? I think so.
