I am not pissed, it is just my way of saying

I honestly wasn't aware that the U.S funded bin Laden during the cold war, and if that is the case, we certainly played a role in our own tragedy. I guess at least for myself and maybe some other Americans on the board as well, I'm so locked into the effect right now that the cause can't do anything to console me yet. Knowing why or how does nothing to bring the countless thousands back to us. That said, there's still no excuse for being unobjective, but objectivity usually doesn't do much to heal emotional wounds.

While we all might disagree on the importance of why these things happened, I think we can all agree that they were tragic. As long as we are all in agreement there, then we're all on the same team.

Milamber, of course. They were tragic, and the perpetrators, whoever they are, are wrong. Whatever Americans may or may not have done, two wrongs never made a right yet, and this is one great big whopping almighty wrong. I agree with you wholeheartedly on that! And I completely understand where your coming from with your point about objectivity.

This forum is amazing. It's just stunning to be able to communicate with so many different types of people, on such widely diverse topics. May the forum live forever! (Must be strong and spend less time on it though! I'm not getting anything done!!!! I expect the urge to post wears off after a while, does it? )

Silver Cheetah~

I did not mean to jump, and I'm glad you didn't seem to take offense...

All I can say is that it's such an emotional time, and we can't always take things at face value.

Much Respect
~Scott
