Yet I like many others caution a degree of restraint, for fear that we will start something that may prove difficult to stop. It is easy to stand on the sidelines and call the shots, were not the ones who are in the field of fire. It must apppear to Aericans we are being anti-capitalist, fatalists. Not so, anyone who cautions restraint does so from a sense of deja vu, a fear that hasty action now could cause untold damage in the future. American is angry. We understand that. When we question the validity of American actions, we do so from a sense of nationhood, not critical superiority. Please don't see this as arrogant morality, rather a brotherly restraint, fear of hotheaded response from an injured sibling.

Very well said. I cannot stress the fact enough that we are not condemning Americans. We are putting a new perspective on the bombings and how this "war" came to be. You cannot fight fire with fire.
Again I say thankyou
