I couldn't agree with you more, in the 2nd world war Admiral Yamanoto of the Japanese Imperial Navy said after the attack on Pearl Harbor. This attack has surely awoken the sleeping giant!!!! We all know what happened to Japan and others in less than 5 years after he made this observation !!!

Unfortunately the giant went back to sleep and the wannabe giant killers again begain their struggle to topple him. Starting with the Iranians taking over our embassy in 1979, the Beirut bombing where over 200 marines were killed, the US Cole incident where many more young men and women were murdered and many more war provoking actions, including of course 9/11. the giant, although awake now, but still groggy from his years of slumber, has yet to stand up and put his feet on the floor to show the world yet again it is not wise to mess with him....It's just a matter of time when the giant will say enough is enough and he will rise like the mighty giant he is and step on these vermin and rid himself and the world of them forever.....
