<< I get upset when I see many people getting carried off with the emotion of the moment. >>

The 'moment' is going to last for years. My emotions range for deep sorrow, to great anger. I can't wait for the US to strike back!

<< Personally I tend to intellectualize these situations before I get upset. Sometimes that is not a good thing either but that's the way I am. Sorry if it disturbs you. >>

I don't condemn you for intellectualizing, while you show compassion for the victims.

<< I suggest you stop trying to intimidate other posters like George and me for stating our opinions ... >>

Intimidate? You made a very serious implication against America. I just asked you to justify and admit to your implication. You wouldn't do it. George, OTOH, cannot be intimidated.

<< Also, imo, when someone criticizes some aspect of our country or government they are not necessarily a critic of America as you state George is! >>

I thought that we were speaking English? <g> A person who criticizes something IS a critic.

<< Who are you to judge sir? Its just your opinion! >>

Remember, you are the one keeping this subject alive.

You had previously stated: "But I also see that the military industrial complex and the US security/intelligence agencies are about to get some teeth and major funding handed to them on a silver platter ASAP. Please reassure me they would never resort to such a horrific plan."

What horrific plan did you think that our government capable of? Could you be more specific? You posted it, not me.
