> Just my opinion ........ yesterday I saw on the news, American soldiers writing "revenge for 911" on missiles... knowing they might kill and injure hundreds of innocent people who had no choice but to support their evil dictator...

> Dont they know than 911 Al-Quaida and Saddam Husseins regime are two different things completetly, and there is no proven link between the two. It angeres me to see that just because the two share the same faith, they are seen as one in the same ...

> It is totally wront for America to take revenge for 911 by going to war with Iraq. Im not saying here that Saddam doesnt need to be dealt with, and also terrorism, but im afraid that by going to war with Saddam it will just feed the terrorists with reasons for further attacks... All the Arabs and muslims see is bombs being dropped on Afghanistan, Iraq, and palestine. Who could then blame them for hating countries like Britain and America.


Hi, I found an article that pretty sums up the way I feel about the whole thing:

http://www.observer.co.uk/comment/story/0,6903,919987,00.html


The quote from Winston Churchill in there was particularly accurate IMO:

..."If selling the US presented problems last year, the task is vastly more difficult today. A country which stands for individual freedom and whose people are so eager to do the right thing - even though, as Churchill observed, they may explore all other options beforehand - is now considered by millions to be halfway between behemoth and pariah."
