So far as I can see,

This is a discussion that has gone round and round here. Nobody wants to "bell the cat" until he is "belled". When we invade, see how many that now say they won't help us jump aboard.

As far as Yemen, You should know that most of the people in this country are "High Fiving" over that action. You don't seem to realize that we are at war here. 911 was not something we are going to forget about. We are pissed, and that is the big reason that Bush won yesterday.

Just blowing six people to kingdom come - no courts, no nothing, in another country, not even knowing who the other people are sitting next to the guy who annoys the US

Crashing a fully laden jetliner into the Pentagon will cause problems further down the road. The six guys were al-Qaeda suspects. Do you think al-Qaeda and OBL didn't do it?

I expect the USA will keep saying they are "not targeting" them till they have killed every one on the long list they must have by now.

If you have any al-Qaeda friends, I would stay at least 100m from them, or whatever the danger radius from a hell fire missile is.

You would of course support that... Just blowing six people to kingdom come - no courts, no nothing, in another country, not even knowing who the other people are sitting next to the guy who annoys the US.


We are at war with these guys. This is not the same as drug. Perhaps this will even incent Yemin to stop supporting these guys and turn them over.

All others are looking up at the UN. As in "all others" looked to the UN to enforce their demand to Iraq to rid themselves of WMD several years ago?
