But that's exactly what the hell happened!! To us!! No, I don't like it. It was no fault of mine. But how do you stop it? You have to fight back, no matter how much you don't like it. It's like the bully in school...as long as you let him, he's gonna beat the piss out of you. If you bust his lip just once, there's a big probabilty he'll stop. We can't just do nothing. We can't. Contrary to what you might think, I'm not all gung-ho about all this. I'm not a hick from the sticks with more guns than teeth. I'm actually well educated. I've also never been big on war. I think in the past the U.S. has perhaps poked it's nose into things it had no business in. But I don't think that's the case here. The sad fact of the matter is that there is no negotiating or bargaining with these people. The only thing they understand is violence. As much as we as Americans hate violence, it's also a sad fact that war has solved a lot of the world's problems. If not, you might just be pledging allegiance to Hitler right now, you and alot of other countries. Laurie Laurie
