It has been a long series of tit for tat.

During the Iran-Iraq war in the time of Reagen, an Iranian airbus was shot down by mistake. Then we saw more than 40 Americans held hostage for more than a month.

Again, not long after Americans and Brits bombed Kaddafi's tent and palace and killed his adopted baby daughter, we saw the Lockerbie air disaster in Scotland.

The Gulf War was followed by attacks on Americans in New York. Specifically, a terrific explosion occurred at the bottom of the World Trace Center but it did not collapse.
According to you, Saddam's fingerprints "were all over the place..............." in this incident.

Clinton tried to kill Osama with a cruise missile. The missile not only missed its target but also failed to explode. Then Osama promised spectacular reprisals, and his henchmen delivered on Sept. 11th 2001.

And, of course, the Palestinians and the Israelis have their seemingly endless series of tit for tat. Ditto for the Hindus and Moslems in Kashmir,

Now Bush wants to hit Iraq. To be sure, this will set off another series of tit for tat. When will all this action and reaction end?
