50 hostages taken in Saudi Arabia.

This can be one huge mistake that could give terrorists a bad name everywhere.
1000 Prices can not be wrong, especially if their oil production is threatened, which threatens every nation.

We would get more allies, more support, and even the UN
will be challenged to act.

Will have to wait and see what happens.

With all those peaceful countries themselves on the trail, soon we should have "peace in our time, around the world", don't you think?

Get real.

How long have they been in Rwanda? and Sudan? and East Timor? and Saddams' Iraq?

Absolutely, the world should have responded to the crisis in Rwanada, East Timor and the Sudan. The Sudan is probably the current crisis situation with the largest loss of life expected over the next year. Sudan would be my first priority.

Iraq? Their death rate was lower than the death rate in the US. Hard to pin that as a humanitarian crisis.
