just my 2c. that was horrible. the worst facet of human race, imo.
85% of the people in Afghanistan are not alphabetized. they dont have television, their main communication vehicle is radio. this kind of people cant die for others sins. on the other hand, many did.
even if you wipe mid east, the real bad guys are in other countries as well. such things would serve like another purpose for them to spread terror. its not an easy thing to ask, but you have to be brave and not choose the most comfortable way to handle this. civilian casualties will happen if a bombing in Afghanistan is to take place.
about osama. not that hes a good guy or something, but that his organization "is believed to have been targeting the United States and its allies since the early 1990s" seems a little too much for me.
from cnn.com
http://www.cnn.com/2001/US/09/13/binladen.evidence/index.html "Whilst pressure is growing for the U.S. to hit back against him, there will also be pressure to ensure that they pick the right target.
Publicly the Bush administration has refrained from naming anyone as a suspect.
Getting it wrong or striking without having the evidence to back up their case could undermine international support and erode any of the moral high ground Washington could claim."
my condolences to the victims. those were the worst scenes i saw in my entire life.
