I've reread the posts. Nothing personal. I just wanted to see what you think you would do if such a situation arose.

IMO, one of the biggest problems we have with the national debate on this war, or any war, is having people be accountable as to what they really think, and how they would solve a problem.

Many of my friends are of the left thought. None of them will discuss what "they" would do, but we know what they "don't" want to do.

We are living in a most dangerous time after 9-11. Most people seem to know that. But most want to bury their head because thinking about it it too hard and requires one to decide what they would actually do if they were in charge.

It isn't this Government that continually goes on al-Jazzera and spews forth what the #2 A-Q says on a daily basis...Most of understand what "kill Americans, Jews and Christians" means. Some don't want to believe these folks "really" mean it.

We've seen what a few of them could and did, do. I personally don't want to just "do nothing" until the next time. Our Government can do what it can do, but ultimately, who knows...It might be that we ourselves will have to actually be some of our 'mothers' children' and take the matters on ourselves ....
