"Way to go George."
What a bunch of complete horseshit!
And I suppose that we were to turn the other cheek?
IMO, there was no response that the US could have done that would not have resulted in those fanatics either seeing us as weak or as invading infidels & used whatever response we made as a reason to commit more terrorist atrocities. It's just that simple. History is replete with evidence to support this! Well, I can think of one response that would have pleased them. We could have passed a law forcing all citizens to become Islamic fundamentalists. <NG>
BTW, in your quest to understand, have you ever considered that this is a two way street? Why is it that we must always bend to the will of others, but you NEVER demand they understand us? And like death by a thousand cuts, we are changed & our rights are taken away & our freedoms are lost? Please refrain from the urge to tell me about our neo-con heritage of forcing our will, blah, blah, blah, either.
That's just more horseshit too. This is the USA. We all allegedly have equal rights, but this political correctness bullshit & all that we must understand our Islamic brothers, & our African American brothers, & this group & that group only takes rights away from some while giving more rights to others. It is by no means equal rights for EVERYONE!!!
Funny how all this need to understand, political correctness crap leaves out certain groups who are asked to do all the understanding!?!?!?! I NEVER see anyone of you folks stand up & state unequivocally that all of those groups you so fiercely defend also need to understand that EVERYONE has the same rights & we ALL need to understand EVERYONE's rights! And if you are going to slaughter innocent civilians for whatever reasons, there are going to be serious repercussions no matter where you are.
