I rememebered it Thom, unfortunately could not participate
in the memorial since I was out of town. There is a military
ceremony at the university bell tower that I go to most years.

Hi. This is the meow-send program at usenet. I'm afraid I wasn't able to
deliver any clue to the following address: "Thom

This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

thom, I wasn't around then but I have read the history.
my sympathies to those who lost their lives but hey at least it woke the
USA up to fighting the nazi alliance as we brits had been doing for
years alone.
war is never a good thing, nobody ever wins.

Here, here.

I just got back from D.C. Visited the WWII Memorial in the Mall. It was
inspiring.

911 was exactly the same....and with approximately the same number of
casualties

Fortunately after Pearl, the US had an enemy and a leadership.

After 911, you had a flock of chickens chasing anything that moved.

You may or may not be right Oz. I think the anwer will come from future
historians. The chapter on Iraq is still being written.

Don't be silly. This is a shamefull period in US history. We just went
to war based on lies. It will only become more evident over time.

All wars are started for the wrong reasons, although if attacked, one has no
choice but to fight.
All wars are shameful.
All wars are based on lies.
This one is no different.

So your saying we should of waited, let Saddam attack us.. or pay
someone to attack us... before we acted?

Even with the whole world demanding that saddam prove he dis-armed? And
Saddam telling the world to get ****ed and throwing out the inspectors?
We should of waited..

No wonder you guys let the govt take your guns away.

The last is not entirely true. The leaders of the people who perp'd the
9-11 attacks were living comfortably among the Taliban in Afghanistan. The
Taliban soon disappeared and the perps were about to be captured within a
very short time - this with very little cost of US life or money thanks to
an effective intel organization put in place by previous presidents.

Then Bush invaded Iraq, diverting the resources needed to bring bin Ladin &
Co to justice, not to capture Saddam but to find at least one WMD to justify
his massive blunder.

Jeeze, our local cops are less than the brightest stars in the sky, but if
they want you in jail they *will* find a bag of dope and a murder weapon on
you -- but Bush can't produce any WMDs without getting caught.

Why he invaded Iraq remains a mistery .... perhaps even to Bush. Rumor has
it that "the voices" told him to do it and he thought it was God.
