Fred, I'm sorry that you thought I meant you specifically re: bin Laden. I did not. I quoted your post simply because I think peace has had enough of a chance. that's it.
It is clear that I am never going to agree with the majority of you about this. I apologize if I have been insulting to anyone. That was not my intent. That may be hard to believe however. I think that I could back up the things I have said, but it is not a useful effort. No one's mind is going to be changed, and it's just going to lead to additional conflict. I also believe that freedom of speech means that everyone has the right to express their views. I actually spoke more because I wanted to let it be known that I agreed with Kakki than anything else. Perhaps Kakki is more tactful in the way she expresses herself. I felt like a fraud agreeing with her off-list, while publicly saying nothing and letting her take the heat as they say. I wish you all the best (whether I've made that clear or not. I'm sure the vote would be for "not". I do believe it is true however).
