Although the women of the United States are confined within the narrow circle of domestic life, and their situation is, in some respects, one of extreme dependence, I have nowhere seen woman occupying a loftier position; and if I were asked... in which I have spoken of so many important things done by Americans, to what the singular prosperity and growing strength of that people ought mainly to be attributed, I should reply, To the superiority of their women.

    1. If "terrorists" were going to try something, why would they talk in these terms? Hey, let's go after Critical Infrastructure and Key Resources! It looks like to me they want to track citizens who are delving into government documents. That's where all these terms are found, not in terrorist lingo.
