To me, the "don't F**K with Americans" attitude and the arrogance and contempt that goes with it has contributed much to the terrorism directed at us and this arrogance and contempt has. or should have, nothing to do with how we "allowed freedom to dominate our society". If we have "allowed freedom to dominate our society" this way, it's been a huge mistake. And I don't think "don't F**K with Americans" is any different than the ""don't F**K with me!" attitude of many people in this country. Just look at the violence this alone brings on.

"I have no doubt what so ever that my two sons would go into battle with their heads held high knowing that theirs was a just and noble cause. They would truly believe in their mission and that it was just."

However different the holy causes people die for, they perhaps die basically for the same thing.

"I asked you in an earlier post if you had any ideas. I take it by your lack of a response that you don't."

I do not have any ideas and it would be very pretentious of me to even begin to suggest that I do. Read this taipeitimes.com to get a feel for what's involved and realize that Malaysia is a moderate Islamic state.

"You hand me platitudes and give me assignments to read others posts."

I never meant to give you "assignments". Buddy's posts are by far and away the best I've seen posted on SI.

"You want America to "teach" the neanderthals of Afghanistan?"

Nope, not me. I thought you were the one would wanted "teach them a lesson" about how they better never "F**K with Americans"?

By the way, if you think "neanderthals" executed this horrendous operation, think again.

"How much money should we throw at that? Should the NEA run that show?"

Huh?

"Give me some solutions asenna. Time is running out."

Solutions? It's one thing to fight over money and land, it's quite another to fight over beliefs.
