Doesn't anyone think that the whole reason we got into this mess is because we initially did nothing about it? World Trade Center bombing of '93, the string of forgien bombings on US embassies, the attack on the USS Cole in 2000? All we did was investigate and put a couple bad guys on trial. We tried the non violent approach for years, and it obviously didn't work. There comes a point when you have to say enough is enough, and show these people that you're going to stand up for yourself. I think it's more likely that if we didn't go after them that there would've been more attacks on the US had we not. I'm not saying that we're never going to be attacked again, but it's obvious we've now made it harder for them to carry out their plans. Trust me, I don't like it anymore than the next guy. But what we're dealing with is an enemy with a medieval way of thinking that are not inclined to listen to reason.
