Good, for the time being that's all it really matters.

I do think, though, that it is a measure of our strength as a country and our goodness as human beings to not let ourselves be seduced into the same kind of hate-filled cultural vendetta that we have suffered today.

Believe me: Neither I feel like having a "cultural vendetta" of any sort, [I hardly believe to be in a position to do so anyway], nor am I not "over-reacting" or "seduced" as if I were a crazed-wide-eyed-terrorist.

I am perfectly capable of giving all the goodness as a human being to those who may deserve it.

But not to the terrorists.

I also want the people who did this, as well as those who supported them, to meet with swift and harsh punishment.

Well then, we are in agreement.

Just remember you can't achieve that with love and flowers. You achieve that with bombs aimed at their brains, and pretty is not.

As I said when all this exchange began: Enough is enough, we should not tolerate any more BS to terrorists; I gave already the examples of what I meant by that.

I am perfectly calm and collected and I do understand that life as we used to know it, has changed.
