    crossroads, you are right. We are doing nothing but reaping what WE sowed....

    Crossroads,

    Some points for you to consider. The USA has given money to almost everybody, sometimes its helps the situation and sometimes not. I suggest you read up on the marshal plan for a time when an economic package helped. But then that would involve forming an informed opinion.

    As far as funding repressive regimes, yes you are correct we have done that. The reason why was we were in a cold war with the soviet union, we perceived (correctly) that they were a greater threat so sometimes we had to go with the allies available and not the ones of our choosing. Once again I ask you what were the alternatives? Should America have isolated itself? What would the world be like now if we had done that? I’ll tell you the whole of Europe would have been dominated by Stalin style communism.

    America reaping what is has sowed. Once again another dumbass comments without any facts to back up their position. Bin Laden is attacking America because he feels we are infidels, in order to not deserve his attacks we would all have to convert and start living under the totalitarian Islamic law of the Taliban. Bin Laden has also used suicide bombers in Afghanistan (against other Muslims) and other Islamic states like Saudi Arabia. He has also said that Jordan and Saudi Arabia must be destroyed, what did these countries do to earn his hatred. He is not attacking America because he wants us to do something or stop something else; he is attacking America because he feels our free way of life is apostasy.

    Idiots. Only children expect perfect justice in the world, adults realize sometimes you must make compromises for the greater good.

    Jelly I assume you are calling yourself an Adult so for
    this great cause may I assume you enlisted this week.
    You are going to but your money were your mouth is right.
    I mean your life on the line for your cause. We backed the
    Afgans because we could and wanted to and we had a
    good laugh about it. The Cold War had nothing to do about it.
    We were happy the Russians now had their Viet Nam, hey
    lets fund the North.Stay on point I'm not talking about Europe.

    Bin Laden is attacking the U.S. because he can and he is
    having a good laugh about it. He does want us to do something
    he wants us out of the Arab lands.

    "Idiots. Only children expect perfect justice in the world, adults realize sometimes you must make compromises for the greater good." I guess killing defenseless men, women and childern
    is an adult compromise you are willing to live with oh as long
    as their Jappanesse-Budhist-Hindu-Arab or Muslim.

    P.S. REMEMBER CHILIE

    Okay crossroads I will respond to your post.

    I mean your life on the line for your cause

    Did you watch the news this week? I don’t have to enlist to be on the front lines, I am on the front lines every time I go to the ticket counter at American Airlines. I am on the front lines each time I use mass transit. I am on the front lines each time I go to see Americas land marks. No, in this war enlisting is not a necessity for finding the front lines.

    We have killed lots of Christians in wars, just ask the Germans.

    Those are your only two points worth responding to; the rest of your post was just a series of emotions strung sloppily together by someone that missed their medication.

    And I am still waiting for you to reply to my post here are the questions:

    [1] What would the world be like if America had not opposed Stalinist Russia?
    [2] If Bin Laden is only attacking us because of our support of dictators why is he attacking other Islamic states like Jordan and Saudi Arabia?
    [3] Does not World War II prove that sometimes war is necessary and (although horrible in execution) the outcome makes the world a better place?

    Your simplistic views are simply sad, if you were 10 it would be understandable.

    Thats not the front lines Jelly. That is simply living day to day life which we all do.

    Put your money where your mouth is, or put your life on the line for your irrational comments, not someone elses.

    There is a certain risk in day to day life. The risk of dying due to terrorism in the west is minimal. If you kill innocent men, women and children overseas, the risk increases dramatically.

    Be patient. The men responsible for this will be found and handed over so that justice will be served on THEM and not on innocent people.

    Lock them in a room with singing Geri Halliwell. They will be begging for mercy and forgiveness in a few seconds.

    Seriously, there is not a thing we can do. The stage has been set, the seed has been planted, now all that left is for war to blossom. Its not right and its not fair. There is NO NEED for it.

    As Obi-wan says "You cannot win, but there are alternatives to fighting".

    Wisdom is the answer. But, does the US government possess any? Lets hope and pray they do.

    really help? Just because someone disagrees with you does not make them an idiot nor a child. You have every right to state what you think should be done but could we all please stop insulting each other's opinions?

    Jelly from the idiot child,
    "I’ll tell you the whole of Europe would have been dominated by Stalin style communism."
    Yeah only HALF of Europe was---East Germany, Poland
    and the like got Stallin instead of Hitler they were happy.
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    [1] What would the world be like if America had not opposed Stalinist Russia? I don't know . What would the world be like
    if Bobby and Martin hadn't been gunned down?

    [2] If Bin Laden is only attacking us because of our support of dictators why is he attacking other Islamic states like Jordan and Saudi Arabia? Bin Laden is attacking because he can we showed him how. And because he wants us out of the
    Holy Land.
    [3] Does not World War II prove that sometimes war is necessary and (although horrible in execution) the outcome makes the world a better place? Was the world a better place is it now?
    During the Cold War the END was closer than ever. It will get very very close this time"A Hard Rain is Gonna Fall"

    "Your simplistic views are simply sad, if you were 10 it would be understandable." Yeah aiding and funding terrorist around the
    world and then stamping our feet and crying after they turn
    on Poppa is a very ADULT reason to get the belt out and
    give them a wooooopin'. The nerve of them.

    Sorry to see you not signing up for your cause---your answer
    if you call it that was pathetic.Looks like your not doing anything
