I would want vegence, I would want blood, and I would want to butcher whoever did that to my loved ones... sadly, but truthfully, I will be in the cycle of hatred but someone has to start the tolerance first before there is a chance for peace

Very true.

And remember that the last person to want war is the soldier.

The bible also says "an eye for an Eye, A tooth for a tooth" ETC Etc.
So its not the best justfier for not making war,
Logic is better.

I never read Bible, I learn by my experiences and others' experiences
you CANNOT take the facial meaning of words on the Bible, and you should not move out context, that is all I say

An "eye for an eye" only makes us both blind.

But it will be war, The first strike was on Tuesday...Like I said before I just hope it wont spill over.

There is very little logic in Washington DC right now

I don't know

I'd really question if they have ther peoples support. Hussein gets his people's support with the point of a gun. That's not really support. Bin Laden has the support of the Taliban, who in turn get their support from the point of a gun. that's not real support.

You talked about us being less agressive, but it sometimes seems to us that we are critizied for that too. It's sometimes a no win situation. we are the only super power left, so we are either vilified for doing too much or we don't do enough. Sometimes we have to ask ourselfs which way it's going to be.

I think we will try to cut support out from under them, by appealing to the moderate Arab nations. Personally, I'd like to see us cut the feet out from under terrorism world wide, regardless of race, creed or nationality!

BTW, GO TIDE !
