Mik, you are absolutely right...two wrongs do not make a right. No doubt about that at all from most reasonable people...but you seem to have dome difficulty grasping the significance of the fact that Americans civilians were attacked and slaughtered on American soil. Sorry, Mik, but the "HE did it first" argument does have validity. It is the difference between naked aggression and self defense. Obviously you are unable to cope with that philosophical concept.
"The US against the entie world"....gimmie a break! Last I heard they were with us and NATO had envoked article five of the NATO CHARTER. Guess you're not up on the international news these days. "Blood lust wraped in a flag"? Guess you weren't in Manhatten last Tuesday or touring the Pentagon either. Since when is self defense and love of country...blood lust! Islamic fundamentalists? Obviously you know little of the Koran which condems the slaughter of inocent non-combatants. The people are Islamic extremests, totally unlike the devout and good persons who follow the true Islamic principles and the Koran.
You "feel shamed by some of the behavior demonstrated here?" Me too,.. from uneducated and uninformed posters. Take a hint "Mik".
