What did you mean by this?
I am sure some countries would love to neutralize us. Now, of course, they have the right to do that-


if not that we have set a precedent that justifies the preemptive neutralization.

Your "preemptive neutralization" has no basis in international law.
Well golly gosh darn, it's a changing world out there X. Just because international law hasn't learned how to deal with terrorism as a means to wage war, doesn't mean that we have to follow their lead.

I don't know anyone who wants to apologize to the people who attacked us. Is that some sort of "preemptive neutralization" argument? (In other words, is that something you are making up, in order to attack people you disagree with over other matters?)

Are you going to honestly tell me that you haven't heard anyone say that we brought it on ourselves or that we deserved it (9/11)? C'mon X, don't be so facile.
