Mike M-- My guess is those suggesting restraint and playing by their own rules of war; do not comprehend what they have seen on TV as they have watched too many movies can not understand the feeling of losing a friend in war Have never seen a buddy blown apart cannot fathom sending a child or spouse off to work only to learn of their murder still think of the situation as an accident instead of premeditated murder have never been shot at have never had to defend their lives believe the loss of 300+ safety and rescue personnal is part of their job believe the perpetrators had a sad childhood-- maybe from a broken home escaped from their institution plus many other possibilities. It is very possible once the shock wears off some may change their point of view. Sitting in an easy chair watching the tube is too much like an evening watching HBO. Nothing has happened like this on this soil since the civil war. Unless it is decidely ended only more can be expected. In no way do I wish to make light of the situation but there is only one way to end a fight and that is to have a winner-- us or them will win. US is a whole lot better!
