well, i disagree with what the U.S. has done because i dont feel as thought we have accomplished anything but kill civilians and probably a few al queda members that most likly couldnt have done shit to us anyway. The airport security was probably necessary, and thats just something we have to live with. So yah, instead of whatever you want to call what we did, i think we should have just invested more time following suspects within the US. That and maybe invested some time into figuring out why something like this would happen. We are soo damn blind that we dont care about why this happened, only about how to kill terrorists world-wide. As the Dalai Lama said "as long as there will be people there will be terrorists." We cant just solve this issue by killing terrorist. As Andy has so wisely tought us... There will always be people who want power. Killing Osama Bin Ladin will just leave an empty throne for another man to take his place. We need to figure out why this happens, not how to kill the few scattered terrorists left hiding in mountains. The money we spend on that would be better off feeding starving children in Somolia.
