Midiman, After reading your statement, I'd have to say that I have a whole lot of respect for you. I agree with everything that you have said, and wish that all Americans, as well as all cultures, can see this point of view, rather than blindly seeking revenge. I am opposed to any sort of military strike from the US government because I believe it will only create more trajedy. The problems of the world seems so complicated in this age, but one can arguably narrow it down to simply the inability for people of different cultures to understand one another. Or even the unwillingness to understand one another. Throughout my travels I have come to learn that all people want the same simple things in life - freedom and happiness. It's a shame that our pursuit for happiness can be clouded by the decisions political leaders have made. Thank you for posting that message.
