foiled terrorist plot?

If that is what it takes to save innocent lives then so be it. Terrorism will become so unthinkable and unimaginable that these terrorist will think about the cost they are to pay when they kill american lives. I am not talking about geneocide, that refers to the annihilation of a race. Obviously there is not a city in the world where the entire race precides.

My latest "scenerio" is a CE to your liberal media dispute.

As for X 911 quotes, I agree with them. But on an individual level.

Genocide is a process, not a single action. Although all genocide begins with a single action. If, every time there is a terrorist attack, you destroy an entire city of several hundred thousand people simply because they have the same color skin as the terrorists, you are undoubtedly committing mass murder based on race. Do it often enough, and you will eventually wipe out the entire race.

I don't see the logic in bombing a city full of innocent people because somebody else bombed a city full of our innocent people. Why is one action just and the other unjust?

If we bomb innocent people to try to force the terrorists to meet OUR demands (ie, stop bombing us), then how are we any different from the terrorists themselves. After all, they bomb innocent people to try to force us to meet THEIR demands.

Take out the terrorists for sure. I'm absolutely for that. If we know where they are, drop a missile on their evil asses. But all this talk of wiping out entire cities full of innocent Arab men, women, and children in retaliation for the death of innocent American men, women, and children is outrageous. It is simply meeting terrorism with terrorism. As I said before, we are better than that.

At least, I'd like to think that we are,
