> I wonder how far this will go. A muslim I know was kinda hissed at on the bus hBome, and the cnn vote show 70% support for bombing kabul if Bin liner isnt given up. I hope this doesn't happen. there has been to much death, settling the score is the lowest form of spiritual peace you can get from death.

Bush has stated he will rid the world of evil -- if only that could really happen.I know as a nation we will respond with more death and more destruction. And more innocent people will die. It tears me up. Wouldn't it be the ultimate response if we responded with food and clothing and housing and aid? I'm sure many here are going to just hate my pacifist soul. But killing someone else's mother or sister or child is only going to continue the cycle of hate. Especially in a part of the world where so many have so little. I cannot understand how anyone can hate so much to do what has happened. It is beyond my comprehension to think that a person's belief in a God would lead them to do such a thing. But I cannot believe that killing a lot more people is going to make that hate for us go away.
