Glad I can please someone.

This seems to have gotten somewhat out of hand. Again I will state for the record, I am not anti-American, I believe that what happened was wrong & that the people behind it should be brought to justice.

I have no personal grudge against you, Jerry, & trust that we can hold opposing views without animosity. (I apologise for the "little man" comment, I was out of line there).

I have very strong sense of morality which I believe that it is important to hold on to regardless of the situation, one of those being my pacifism. Please do not confuse that with cowardice.

Other than being opposed to war, I happen to believe the current action is not well thought through & is likely to cause more suffering throughout the world & could lead (in the short term, at least) to an increase in terrorism. The then director of the CIA, Robert Gates, & National Security Advisor, Zbigniew Brezinski, have both admitted to aiding the Mujahadeen in July 1979 in order to draw Russia into "the Afghan trap" - Brezinski wrote a memo to Carter stating "We now have the opportunity of giving to the USSR its Vietnam war". I may be wrong, & hope that I am, but I can see this becoming Americas 2nd Vietnam.

If you can direct me to similar articles which shed a positive light on the current action, I would be most interested.

I'm sorry if my views offend you, but I do believe that all views should be aired.
