im afraid the us is digging itself deeper and deeper into its own grave as we continutally destroy countries we cannot afford to support.

next on the list is korea part 2, then iran, then who knows?

and the more we invade these countries, the more we look like the bad guys. we are going to look like an insane country in a frenzy to fight terrorism in the proven wrong manner.

in this war, you cannot fight fire with fire, it takes a great leap of faith, but people need to realize that the flames of terrorism must be extinguished and not met with perfectly calculated brutality. our attacks only spawn more hate.

then again, what it comes down to is: the us, canada, britain and most of europe, israel, japan, australia, etc. are the "have's" and the people middle east and parts of afrika and asia are the "have-not's," so there will always be jealousy and hatred toward us on thier part.

and our attempts to aid these people come up short as the more we try to help, the more they hate us in that we are able to help them.

i wish we could just leave these countries to duke it out on thier own: we pull out all economic ties, and perhaps they can get along fine in thier own culture. maybe then they would realize some of the west's good intentions.
