I feel the "past" keeps coming up, because there are some among us who cannot accept the fact that their own country helped build Saddam's arsenal, including the chemical and biological.

Once that is accepted, I have nothing against moving on.

Whilst the Eur-Asian region has had many terrorist attacks, The US is relatively new to these things on its own soil. There is an understandable desire to hit back at those that caused it, those that support(ed) it, and those that are likely supporters of any terrorist actions

That is very true. I know well just how the need for revenge burns in your heart when you lose a loved one to senseless violence.

However, this is no excuse for the current behaviour of the US administration. Just like hurting so much from your mom's death at the hands of a black aggressor that you take a gun and start shooting at all African-Americans on the street - you are above the law because of your grief (or because you have a gun), and it's OK to shoot all blacks regardless of whether it is the one who is guilty.

and those that are likely supporters of any terrorist actions (current or future) against US interests.

And who is going to argue with the US if it says a country is a FUTURE supporter of terrorist actions, and MIGHT in the FUTURE be against US interests?

Anyway, all blacks can one day kill one of your loved ones, right?

I hope I am not the only one who finds this unacceptable around here.
