What was the question

Submitted by Pete Commander (United States), Feb 3, 2007 at 13:53

To those that say "war is not the answer" I say this: where and what was the question?

Could the question be "can I come into your country and kill your men, women and children and have no penalty against me?" That would seem to be the case as the short sightedness of Americans grows even shorter. Forget the folks who were killed minding their own business on 9/11. Forget the people who, while overseas have been subjected to hatred by their hosts just because they are Americans. Forget the citizens who were denied any iota of justice because of the hatred toward our people. If war is not the answer, just please tell me what the question was.
