Sun,
I have the deepest sympathies for all innocent displaced person everywhere. Read Jacobs last post or two to get a feel for the limited nature of what we are discussing. If you want to argue that crossing the nuclear line is wrong i accept that view. My view is that the line has been crossed and we should employ deterrence so it wont be crossed again. I am trying to prevent bio/chem/nuke attacks, not initiate them. Because i know that if attacked again and again the US will ultimately use such weapons anyway so why dont we make it clear to the enemy under what circumstances we will do so, so they can rethink their options. What is wrong with that?
There is absolutely no hatred and anger in what i post. I write confrontationally i guess. This is like a debate to me. I am posting to other americans many with different views. I have had a tough time making my point which is frustrating. Brian is offended and left. Ian is pissed off at me. And you see a policy argument in a way that i did not intend. Anyway I hope you had a good trip. I have not seen your posts recently and just this morning thought about the drink we never had. Mike
