Why are you so hostile? But look at it this way - Americans are not all as strident as are you, and may not be willing to die in bomb blasts. The terrorists are not only all convinced they are right, but they are all willing to die to prove it. Who will win? As long as Americans have doubts as to the rightness of their cause, they will not have the will to fight, and they will lose. At least that's the logic the bombers espouse.

In the Gulf War, everyone was convinced that Hussein was an evil that needed to be stopped, and we were behind the effort 100%. Of course, if the American boys had started coming home in body bags, that might have changed. We are not 100% behind the Sudan bombing (maybe because we are not sure it was a legitimate target). What do you base your absolute conviction on? Clinton's word? Do you just dislike Arabs? Are all Arabs terrorists? When you say "they harbor terrorists", who are "they". How can you condemn an entire country or region of the world with no proof? What makes you think I'm a left-wing anything?
