This tidal wave of death and destruction is headed our way, and my sleeplessness was driven by fear and a feeling of helplessness. Sadly, I sense our country is adrift with no solution to this horror available to us. "Leader" in the dictionary is : a person or thing that leads. and a guiding or directing head, as of an army, movement, or political group. Think what is to come in a very few years. A mere 30 years ago, terrorism was something which occurred "somewhere else", certainly not in America. What do we have to "look forward to" in the next 30 years. With many of us being in our sixties, our futures do not look as bright and shining, carefree and comfortable as we once thought.

I understand your feelings Sandra. I kept thinking about the images I saw awhile back of Muslims blocking traffic in London. And wonder why?
