Do I think it was wrong to bomb that village in Pakistan? No, I don't. The whole Afghan/Pakistan border is known to be a hotbed of insurgency and supporters of Al Qaeda. In addition, it is known to be lawless. So much so that the Pakistani militarily regularly comes under attack in the region.

We had credible intelligence that Zwahiri would be at a dinner in that village.

Oh that's right......and they've never been wrong before. We found WMDs in Iraq and we caught the 2003 graduating class from Al Qaida's paramilitary training center in Iraq just as they got their diplomas.

Would I have pulled the trigger if I had that kind of intelligence, even if it meant 18 people of dubious innocence? You bet I would have.

I see.......the blood lust has taken over. It no longer matters if kids get killed or not. If they are Muslim 'gook' kids, then a dead one is the only good one.

Aren't you lucky you can play God with these people's lives....but not to worry.....Jesus loves you.

Clinton had the same chance with Bin Laden. Don't we all wish he would have had the foresight to make that kill?

It wouldn't have made one iota bit of difference. The problems that created a bin Laden and drive his organization now that he's dead continue to exist.

Again, I'm glad you are not in charge of our intelligence apparatus. We'd all be reading the Qu'ran and speaking Arabic right now and forming calluses on our foreheads from bowing to Mecca 5 times a day, if we lived in your ideal world.

How ridiculous.........I am no more interested in being Muslim than I am Hindu or Republican.
