CIMA, thanks for posting the exchange from the Globe and Mail. I found the following comment by somebody named Rick Salutin interesting: "In the gulf war and the attack on Yugoslavia, at least there was no danger of retaliation. I think that was immoral and vile, but it had no concrete downside, or so it seemed then. Now, we're in a new situation. We know the other side, i.e. the bombers of Sept. 11 can inflict severe damage here with minimal means and, more important, they know it. Do you want more of this stuff happening here? I thought the point was to prevent it." What a cynical coward. See, it's all our fault, and if we respond we risk causing more attacks. What a smarmy, pathetic SOB . . . I'd like to think his ilk is still a minority in our great northern neighbor . . .
