American 1/2 unknown 1/4 german 1/4 greek genetic history. 28 years old and I'm a high school dropout. I speak english and slang. I have a spiritual religon. I would vote Libertarian or for who ever will end the drug war.
What do you think about the 9-11 attacks?
Unconditionally Tragic. The pictures! my words cannot compare.....
Do you think that the attack were a reaction to US (or Western Civilization) policies over the years
To a degree. I had yet to hear a good policy decision on the middle east since the current Bush came to office as U.S. president. Until today when America, via Colin Powell so unassumingly condemned recent Isreali Agression. I cant really blame the current Bushs policies, but the previous Bush had alot to do with it. The terrorists hate for the U.S. grew to a fervor years ago during and after the Gulf war.
Do you think that the US "had it coming"?
Deserved it? NO!
Could have seen it coming? Yes.
Do you believe that a state should base is policies on moralities or the protection of the national interest?
An issue to be addressed on a "policy by policy" basis.
Do you believe that Bin Ladden should be brought to trial for his crime?
It is the civilized thing to do and consistant with the ideals that are concerned with how we deal with transgressors, American style.
What do you think should be done about Bin Ladden, his associates or any other terrorists?
Whatever they have coming to them.
Do you believe that all Muslims are terrorists and that only Muslims are terrorists?
I wont say all muslims are anything. I believe some if not most muslims are non-violent. but, There's bad apples in any bunch.
Do you believe that the Talibans or any other government that harbor terrorists should be remove?
Not at the cost of one more human life.
Do you believe that bombing of Afghanistan or any other country who support terrorists will help in getting rid of terrorists
No. Our actions are a perfect rallying point for our extremists adversaries to pull the moderate players toward an anti-west viewpoint out of fear and/or terror. We may get rid of terrorists, but we wont get rid of terrorism until we quit playing by their rules.
What do you think about the coalition dropping food?
Give a malnourished person a bread crumb while shooting a gun all around him, occasionally grazing some flesh.
Military action. Why make so many suffer just to get a few. Thats what the terrorist do, cause suffering.
How do you think Western Civilization should deal with this problem?
With compassion, respect and civility. In America, We should be vigilante and keep our ideals of justice intact.
What do you think about the current Anthrax scare?
Fear.
