I read your post, stood up and applauded...then remembered that you really believe we're truly innocent in all of this. So I sat back down and shook my head.

Oh well - at least we have you to save us....maybe...

So tell me - what is the WHOLE truth?

If we want to be safe, we must treat ALL people in the same manner in which we want to be treated. That means not sponsoring dictators who murder, rape and pillage people using American weapons, intelligence and training. We ARE guilty of that you know.

Now you're right - some people really do hate us for our way of life, culture etc. That's one part of it but not all of it. These people a far fewer than our good media is trying hard for us to believe. Come on - let's not be naive and believe EVERYTHING they say on TV :)

Now I'm not saying we should be pacifists in this but running off half-cocked killing them all just for the sake of revenge is meaningless. It will push some those people sitting on our side and many of those on the fence over the edge into just the type of hatred you explained to us.

Now just as a point - we actively try to destroy their way of life too you know. Only thing is we do it with movies, tv, fast food and marketing.

Thanks for reminding us to really look at the truth - I feel better already......
