What would be your response to terrorist attacks? Would you ignore them and hope that they don't happen again?

redfish. You said....."It is true that to most of the world the U.S. and Israel are now joined at the hip; we are indeed fighting the same war."..... Then you say...."Hopefully the people in our military will someday wise up and refuse to go on with the charade. Imo the best resolution is for teens to refuse to enlist in the armed forces.".... Could you please explain how on the one hand you agree that we are at war...I assume you mean against radical islam.... and on the other hand you suggest we do not fight to defend ourselves in other words give in to the enemy radical islam....They want you dead....unless of course you belong to islam. You said....."I am perfectly willing to acknowledge that reality, but I don't have to be happy about it. I am in fact very angry about the situation, though there's absolutely nothing I can do about it."..... I disagree....you can speak out against the enemy whenever you have the chance. That is all many of us can do as some of us are to old to fight physically. When enough of the civilized world understand what is going on we will get the support we need to defeat islam terror. So IMO you can do something....speak out against radical islam....If you can get even one person to understand what the problem really is you have done a great job to help keep the freedoms we now enjoy. Now go ahead and make fun of this post.
