Being pro-anything that deals with gambling, I don't have a problem with the government setting up a betting service.

But imagine if there were some european country with a "predict american leaders deaths" gambling ring going on. There would be so much outrage from politicians in the US. I'm sure there will be outrage abroad, however. This, like about 99% of the things the government is doing to "fight terrorism" will actually encourage more terrorism.

Now, if you really want to take some steps to stop terrorism, you could do something like.....oh.... I don't know.... maybe.... STOP GIVING MONEY/SUPPORT TO ISRAEL!

But that'll never happen...
