>I'm not American. Nor am I English. But England is my adopted country, and I'm proud of it. However, words are inadequate to describe my feelings. The effect of these attacks are mind-numbing. Pearl Harbour pales in comparison. It took an entire navy to do that. So many innocent lives have been eradicated within the stroke of an hour. Personally, I feel a deep sense of sorrow; sadness at the dregs to which humanity has fallen.

Now is certainly the time to address terrorism in its entirety, wherever from, and from whichever nation it stems. Address the problem at its root. I am no way suggesting that the advocates of this crime should be treated with kid gloves. In fact the recriminations should be severe. But I'm sure we will all feel much better at the end of it knowing that we have achieved our purpose within the confines of International Law.

Well put!
