What Nick saidPosted by Anne in CT on September 18, 2001 at 17:49:01: In reply to: Please, there is a distinction posted by Nick on September 18, 2001 at 16:25:47: After the WTC bombing, CNN broadcast the results of a poll in which 4out of 5 Americans polled approved of retaliation even if innocent people were killed during the coarse of it. This is not a good thing. While America the country has ignored terrorism and the death of innocents in countries that we don't find helpful or useful, I think there is a strong majority of American citizens who do not want to cause further harm to any innocent person, regardless of nationality, religion, gender or sexual orientation. Perhaps we should search for justice and leave vengence up to our Goddess or God of choice. : Innocents for innocents is not the way to go about it. We must find : the root of the problem, and exterminate it. If we simply kill the : people of Afghanistan, we will have done nothing to injure Bin Laden. : That would not be a solution. Senseless slaughter is not the way to : get anywhere but backwards. : ~Nick.
