This isn't going to prevent terrorism, it's going to create alot of innocent people who will now be labeled terrorist though. If an agency is created they will find a way to get results, it's their reason to exist. Big Big problems because of this.
I'd love it if America was the only country in the world. At least then, I wouldn't have to listen to petulant anti-American garbage spewed by someone from Belgium who would be speaking German in the modern-day Third Reich if it wasn't for my country. When was the last time your country ever did anything that mattered? You make excellent chocolate and beer but what else have you done except live like hobbits in splendid isolation from the big bad world?Also, wasn't Belgium the country that turned the Congo into a giant concentration camp, inflicting scars on its body politic that are still felt today? I don't need to hear any lectures about civil liberties from someone whose country's actions in Africa inspired "Hearts of Darkness" by Joseph Conrad. My main point is that Belgium is a country that has gotten fat, dumb, and happy and benefited enormously from its association with the US.Regarding detention orders in Britain, why don't you read a book about the history of British involvement in Northern Ireland over the last three decades? To win there (and they did win and I'm glad they did), they had to do things that make my country's actions pale in comparison.
listen assh**e i dont mind reading your pro american s**t simply because to be honest it amuses me to still (they are getting very rare thank god) find people like you out there claiming how america has saved the world and give the same old reasons for it ( i.e. ww2 that you guys conveniently joined after being attacked by japan)...this started as a political discussion which you quickly turned into an *america against the world* discussion but sooner or later our little hillbilly had to make it personal didnt he and this is where this PORTUGUESE girl signs off. P.S. nowadays especially in europe , just because someone lives in a country it doesnt mean they are from there so next time before making a complete fool of yourself (and yeah i understand it must come natural to you ) try and think about that...have a grand life :)!

A non-mainstream candidate getting upwards of 20% of the vote is going to send a bigger message than a couple Congresspeople getting elected.
