Somehow I fail to see your interpretation in these words:
So, do you think we bombed the Red Cross facilities only in order to be mean? Also, you seem to think we are obliged to put as many of our personnel at risk as possible. Should we go back to the days when armies faced off in ranks across open fields and shot at one another in a kind of mass- duel? Or should we get the job done with a minimum of casualties sustained by our side? Is it the hypocrisy that bothers you? Well, considering that we have been putting men on the ground periodically, and that all of us over here (whatever it has been like in England) having been living under a cloud, waiting for the next terrorist incident, especially where I am (my wife has an office off of Dupont Circle), I do not think there is any hypocrisy whatsoever......
That's Neocon's response.

But tell me: Why is it that you have a problem with your nation (you're still an American citizen, right?) attempting to take action to prevent further attacks on its citizenry? Are you a total pacifist?

What would you suggest we do in response to 9/11/2001? And "nothing" is not an acceptable answer. It's not acceptable to me and it's not acceptable to over 90% of US citizens.
