I think that we need to lead the action, but we should involve all of the countries who abhor terrorism and who have been victims of terrorism.

Terrorism has been a viable, effective weapon against democracies for 60 years. It is time to make the price of conducting terrorist acts so high that even the stupidest, most psychopathic, and most suicidal haters won't consider committing them.

Everyone has heard what happened to the Hezbollah guys who kidnapped and killed a Russian embassy official in Lebanon, right? The Russians hunted down and killed every Hezbollah member that could be identified. No one attacks Russians in the Middle East anymore.

Our condolences to the British, as well:

A spokesman for British Prime Minister Tony Blair said Sept. 12 that the number of Britons who died in the Sept. 11 terrorist attack in the United States "could run into hundreds," AFP reported. 1930 GMT, 091201

I would hate to see my children go to war, but I don't want my children to grow up fearing terrorist attacks, either. It is better to fight than to live your life in constant fear.

Harry:

I don't think you or I will be consulted The people we elect to represent us have an onerous burden upon them at times like this. I'm no warmonger and I hope whatever action taken is swift, proportionate and as 'just' as is possible. I've no wish to see innocents suffer either but this is a shitty world we live in.
There's the way it OUGHT to be and there's the way it IS.

You can not get news about the worldwide support like you can from the threads on this site or the Internet in general. Worldwide reaction is not as descriptive as how you guys express it.

Thanks,
Tan
