I was responding to the theory that Saddam's death will make the US more hated in the region, which is basically impossible. They have hated us for decades, will continue to hate us, and it really doesn't bloody well matter what we do.

Then why...why did you bring up 9/11?

You accused me of being illogical. That is the pot calling the kettle black.

The Barbary Wars....very real but let's try some more recent history...else we have to add Britain, Germany, Japan, etc.

We were attacked by a group of men from Afganistan and Saudi Arabia...so...according to what you said....we invaded a country. (looks like them???? speaks the same language??? same part of the world) 'cause we were mad as hell and not going to take it anymore?????) Does it matter WHAT country?

Like so many...you are ready to throw 9/11 into the discussion whether it is relevant or not.

I again say...defeatist....

(but as long as I don't say it for more than...what is it...3 minutes...it is not a personal attack.... )
