I don't understand why everyone is so upset about us getting involved where someone asks us to and we agree with them. We fought Iraq for invading Kuwait. Kuwait asked us. Most Iraqis seem to support Saddam. If we had not stepped in, I think Saudi would have been next on the list for conquest. Between Israel and Palestine, Israel holds more similarly to our values and government. We have to support democracy over other more oppressive governments by nature, don't you think? Once again, Israel asked us. I pesonally don't think that Palestine WANTS to stop fighting. They've been fighting as long as history. Osama is already wanted for previous crimes, so whether or not there is rock solid proof that this was personally his doing is irrelavent. The towers are the proverbial straw that broke the camels back. Most of the world seems to support us routing this dangerous man and the oppressive Taliban. Why don't you?
A note about my previous jibes. I've grown up with heated conversation containing jibes my entire life. Father, brothers, freinds, we all use them and don't really pay much attention to them. We occasionally laugh at a really good one and continue. So, I may be a bit quick to throw a dart if I feel pricked by a comment. It's a way to throw a bit of humor, cutting though it may be, into an otherwise serious conversation. Kind of a cocky comic relief if you will. Is this wrong? I see plenty of it going around besides me. I've even seen plenty of profanity around. Even I don't use profanity.
