Yes and the right wing militia is known for fanaticism to the point of demanding a traitors head be removed from his body and displayed as a warning to others as well as the torse and limbs never being found. We as a nation have an obligation to all Americans to not assume that Osama Bin Laden committed this crime. I was also against the bombing of Afghanistan as it was the same as Iraq, we put a guy in power, give him our weapons and then get mad and go to war against them. We think the weapons we gave were old weapons, but who is to say they didn't take what we gave them and updated them? Lets be smart, take our time, and do this right. Whomever did this took two to five years and during that time all Americans were scared and wondering when the next Oklahoma City was going to happen or worse. A movie was going to be released and has now been cancled where Terrorists take a commercial airliner and blows up the capitol building. Now how can we wonder where the idea came from? If it took this amount of time for this attack to be planned and all contingencies determined I believe it is time for us to take a few steps back, breath and decide exactly how to retaliate in a way that will really do harm to whomever is responsible. Hit them in the money belt. Murder is murder. We know how we feel to have thousands dead, why do we think that killing them will make them stop? Isn't that a bit counter productive. All we have to do is never trade with them again. Lets stop giving millions if not billions of dollars to stop the drugs from coming into our Country when the Country consistently lies to us and uses the money to supply terrorists with weapons. How do we even know that they have stopped sending drugs to our Country?
