JR, I didn't say that, not in the slightest - quit trying to put words in other people's mouths - state your opinion, don't try to rephrase mine to make me look like an asshole - I can do that all by myself!
Let me make this clear: Saddam and BinLadin are both murdering bastards that deserve to die horrible deaths. You don't ignore them, EVER.
But, come on, realize there are risks to this action, longterm repercussions from it, that you and I and every other westerner will have to live with for a long time to come. America now looks over it's shoulder all the time, and that is NEVER going to go away. Your innocence was lost, and it sucks...
We had the FLQ here in quebec when I was a kid, I can still remember the army coming to the door to check the house (they checked every house in our town, door to door, no exceptions)... assasinations, bombs... it scared alot of people.
but back on topic...
Anyone ever remember that the least popular kids in school was the bully? Respected, yes... but liked, no.... and everyone was always planning a way to take a pop at him. Right now, the US is looking like the bully to many people in many countries... and it is almost a certainty that someone will take a pop at the bully...
sad but true.
