Re: God bless America I am proud to be american
kentthrussell,<br /> I am curious as to why you are willing to say that you would fight for "our" country, especially if the cause wouldn't put yours in direct danger? Are you willing to fight for Isreal? Japan? Russia? If need be, I am willing to fight to secure the US way of life, because it is my way of life, but I don't really think that is the case. I don't see how this puts my liberty into jeopardy, we let these people in, and on the planes. I do though very strongly feel that terrorism should be attacked. How, I don't know, it's like the war on drugs, it can never be won, because we cannot precisely pinpoint the next idiot that want's to mow over innocent people, whever it may be. I do think the US has been looking the other way to a point though. Since 1990, at least once a year, except 97, 99, their has been a major terrorist attack on the us, or embassies. Yet we let the airlines lower their guard to make tickets cheaper and hopefull boost the economy. Like to old cleche says, " never underestimate you opponents" ;we knew we had opponents, and the evidence showed something of this nature was on the horizon. None could be prepared to what we were served with though. <br />I very much agree with fouled plug, to send people over without carfully planning will certainly cause some deaths, and to add to the death toll of this horrific event seems to me in vain.<br /><br />Let our Prayers be with the fallen!
