Subject: RE: Violence is the American Way?
I think I would agree with Daylia too, based upon my thoughts when watching the events of September 11th unfold. Apart from my initial reaction to the horror of the situation that was unfolding, I kept hoping upon hope that cooler heads in the US would prevail as a reaction to the event. I was fairly certain even on that day, that the US would go to war over this.

I'm pretty certain that I wouldn't have had the same thought pop into my head, had the same kind of event occurred in Great Britain, France, Germany or most any other country in the world, for that matter.
