And I feel sorry for people with the pathetic attitude that we always have to turn the other cheek! > Yes, innocents will get > killed. It happens. But this will continue to escalate. The world is a far > different place than a John Wayne movie (and yes, I do enjoy > watching them, > but I know they are fantasy, just my inner kid feeling some nostalgia). Your right. If it was a John Wayne movie we could just ride in and have the battle with the 'bad guys'. Unfortunalty, this being real life, the 'bad guys' are indistiguisable from the innocents you want to protect. our bullets and bombs aren't movie props. > In them it is usually black and white, no shades of gray. Only, there are > many, many shades of gray. I like the idea or "theirs" and > "ours". "Theirs" > must not love their children, wives, husbands, parents, etc. We > love "ours". > "They" must not feel pain or regret. "We" do. Sorry... But I care very little for what 'They' feel right now. Prior to the WTC perhaps you would have struck a chord... Now? Anything to eliminate the threat to our own people. If the 'innocents' would just stand up and fight back... They do outnumber the Taliban over 500 to 1. > > This all sounds very Christian. I wonder what Christ would say about all > this?

Since I don't claim to be a Christian, I really don't care what Christ would have to say about it.
