Someone brought up a point last night that I admit made me think twice. Their point was to ask how many AMericans cheered when bombs were dropped on Iraq back during the Gulf War. When someone is our enemy it is OK to cheer?

Were there 60 to 100 Iraqi civilians strapped to each cruise missile aimed at civilian targets holding tens of thousands of people? If not, then yes it's okay to cheer.

Regards
Jay

Big difference although I think anyone enjoying innocent shedding of blood has serious problems. IRAQ shed innocent blood when they ransacked Kuwait. We acted as the police force to bring them and their rogue leader under control.
This unprovoked attack on NYC and D.C. was against innocent civilians and was meant to kill many.
