now, we may get a bit squeamish at the thought of not playing nice. but in war, you can't play nice...i've come to the conclusion after much thought that we need to do what we need to do, hopefully within reason, to keep another 9-11 type occurrence from happening.
and like george patton, one of my favorite military heroes ever said....you don't die for your country, you make the other poor bastard die for his country. or something to that effect. old blood and guts knew what it took-he'd never make it in today's oh so political correct world.

If 9-11 hapened tomorrow I believe Obama's reaction would be "we 'HOPE' this was not a terrorist attack and just a weird coincidence. The 'suspects' may have been victims as they were ancestors of the inventor of the pen Muhamad Guttenburg, and they invented the arch and spiral so where's the motive? They are a great culture! Maybe it was those nasti Nazi's at work again."
