WRONG!

Yes, some voted to give the president the power to start a war....NOT START a war. He took the bit and ran with it, starting a war that was planned BEFORE he was even elected.....planned BEFORE 9/11....planned BY the CURRENT ADMINISTRATION.

The Allies did the same thing to Germany and Japan.

In fact Great Britain did it as a tactic to lower German morale.

I do not believe they were a reaction, I think it is how people over there think.

Diplomacy with an enemy who calls for your death on a daily basis is foolishness,diplomacy led to WWII.

No that is NOT what led to WWII.
Passivity is what led to WWII.

When is all washes out there has to be a handshake.
There will be a handshake.
Its just how much blood has to pass BEFORE that happens.
But it will happen.

I think the victims of the London Blitz might have been a little distressed and offended at being called collateral damage rather than innocent victims.
The point is that we the Allies, the good guys the Brits and the Americans..... had no problem with killing 10's of thousand innocent women and kids back then so why do we now?????

Well then they all lied....

Remember that the previous administration considered Iraq a threat to world peace.

If you are going to be outraged spread it around to ALL of those responsible.

That WAS diplomacy,the west simply kept negotiating with a man who had already decided he would not comprmise.

Radical Muslims do not compromise.
