Damoclean Sword

I found this story quite interesting.

The source is sometimes questionable, but this news service seems to have inside track to the White House and the GOP on stories of National interest, so I thought I would pass it on to ATS members.

I have to agree with the author, make a parking lot out of Mecca, if OBL hits the US or the coalation countries.

Why hasn't Osama bin Laden's terror network executed an attack on U.S. soil since 9-11?

Simple, says Dr. Jack Wheeler, creator of an acclaimed intelligence website dubbed "the oasis for rational conservatives": The U.S. has threatened to nuke the Muslim holy city of Mecca should the terror leader strike America again.

On his website, To the Point, Wheeler explains how the Bush administration has identified the potential of wiping Mecca off the map as bin Laden's ultimate point of vulnerability � the Damoclean Sword hanging over his head.

Somehow reading that article makes me smile.
