I don't have a solution. But I do believe that suffering and poverty are the soil in which terrorism grows. Bin Laden and his cohorts want to bait us into creating more such soil, so they and their kind can flourish. We can't let him do that. That's my humble opinion. Did you see the article that J. Fowler posted on the mod. thread? Bin Laden may have already won. Tonite, I was talking to some friends about the attack last week. They are pretty conservative so I was trying to be careful when I was talking to them; however, I was suggesting that we need to go slowly; kill the terrorists who were responsible i.e. bin Laden but we don't have to stomp all over Afghanistan and kill innocent civilians. They went off...they were nearly screaming at me. How can you be so stupid. We need to kill as many of those people as possible so that they will never attack us again. I was in shock. These seemingly very nice people with two small children were talking genocide, extermination. I know its the fear talking but the images of Palestinians laughing and dancing in the streets is fresh in their minds....and the articles that are saying that the Muslims hate us. I don't think there is much that anyone can do. The die seems to have been cast. Both sides are marching to that war that bin Laden wants so badly. Bush said on Sunday we must go on with our lives, return to work, etc. but he must have been on the news at least 4 or 5 different times today. Each time he was talking about war and going after the enemy. In the meantime, these friends are throwing a party this weekend but I have decided I won't go. I don't have the stomach to listen to that level of hate, not after what happened last week. In my life, I have seen that fear twice before..the LA riots and the LA quake. I thought I was done with it. ted
