It doesnt matter who attacks us, we attack who we want to. The oil was in Iraq and the neocons knew there was alot of money there. They took us all for a ride to get it, and they got it, over the dead bodies of huidreds of thousands of innocent people. Throw in the Afghan people who have died from U.S. bombings and rocket attacks and we have killed well over a million innocent people since September 11, 2001.
No wonder the world hates us, the same reason they hate our number one ally, Israel.
But as this forum proves, what is just does not matter to a good many people in this country (dare I say most?)
And the killing will continue, because there are "targets of opportunity" out there, but more importantly, the Defense Budget must be fed.
Right now its so fat is cannot move, it must be forcefed.
So it's our fault the pirates are attacking our ships?
Should we just park em till the world loves us again?
Good points.
Lets just raise a white flag up the mast and hand over the helm.
The crew can swim home.
We can choose to go after the pirates but attacking the country of Somalia would be criminal. Their country has nothing to do with this and would yield no benefits only dead on both sides.

So we should invade Somalia because a band of robbers picked one of our non-military ships this time? We're the only country where this stupid debate would even be going on.

What does your response have to do with my questions? (that weren't even addressed to you)
The debate becomes "stupid" when the other side can't stay on topic.

yes raise the white flag , then teach them what it feels like to be hit with a granade launcher or two. , ya think they might get the message ! Stop them in the water. Just heard on the news how we should catch them , then take them to court ?? Again the court of no return.( fish bait). It's called self Defence . My guns bigger then yours.

What did your questions have to do with anything? Of course it's not "our" fault. You want to critisize without viable solutions. I was responding to your questions in respect to how they back the OPs ridiculous stance. Of course, we go after the criminals but we don't invade Somalia. In this particular case, I guess we should blow up the life boat and just consider the American hostage as collateral. How stupid
