Subject: RE: AMERICAN ATTACKS**PART ELEVEN: Long Haul
Ok. I'm willing to use the words 'act of agression' in the context of what was done to the US embassy in Afghanistan. However, diplomatically, we don't recognise the Taliban as a government. And we do not occupy that embassy. We severed our diplomatic ties to Afghanistan before the embassy was attacked. So I think we're mostly splitting hairs on terminology.

I certainly don't think, in light of what's going on right now, that it's something to get excercised about. Correct me if I'm wrong GUEST, Just a nobody, but it sounds to me like that is what you are saying as well.
