A Faceless Coward & Hypocrite! in WinCustomize Talk WinCustomize Forums

In a previoius comment on the news thread somone questioned why President Bush had referred to the WTC Attacker as a 'coward'. There are many reasons why this person/organization/country can be called a coward and I want to pose my view on this.

I would also like to extend my prayers that this most unfortunate incidenent does not lead to a war or further casualties.

For Object Desktop you will need a Windows 98, ME, 2000, NT or XP OS(Will work under 95 in most cases but is not officially supported). You can run it on a pretty low end machine if you want. A P200 with 64MB ram will suffice.
