Okay, back to your non-anger over 911.

Why don't you give some thought to why you AREN'T angry over that, but are outraged over Abu Ghraib, those Afghans, and in general us even being in Afghanistan and IRaq.


First, I don't get angry at groups of people just because one or two or 16 members of that group committed a horrible crime. I don't get angry at all blacks when one robs and kills a white person. I don't get mad at all whites when one kills a black man out of racial hate. I think of hate crimes......extreme crimes as the sole responsibility of the perpetrators. That means the only persons I would have gone for after 9/11 would have been bin Ladin and his supporters....period. And I certainly wouldn't have done it in the clumsy way that it was done.

Secondly, I think anger accomplishes very little. Sure I get angry but I don't strike back when I am angry. You can't help but lose if you do. I wait til I cool off.

Thirdly, this whole attempt to exact revenge for 9/11 has been done poorly. I think that's because oil politics played a big role.......muddying up the water. In addition its clear that the people in charge are not good at administrating. Hence the many mistakes and failures.

Does that make clear where I stand in all this stuff?
