I did not listen, I cannot stomach the sound of his voice, nor looking at his smug smirking face. I will, however, go read it. Thanks, Amos, for the link.

Rog heard the Canadians were calling for trials at the Hague for bin Laden and/or whomever. This makes a lot more sense to me than any kind of war. Whatever America does will have repercussions around the world.

Rog also heard on NPR or tv, that Bush had used the word "crusade" several times in the past few days. This, imo, shows his complete ignorance of world politics and history.

Allie Kiwi, you make some very good points. If you look back through some of the threads immediately after last Tuesday, you will find many of us agree that the reasons why these kinds of things happen are of extreme importance.

If America acts with cooler heads and manages to not get into a protracted worthless Viet Nam type non-declared war in Afghanistan, it will be because her citizens have let their voices be heard and also because governments and their people around the world have also spoken up.

May (your) god make it so.
