Chris, I wasn't going to respond to this thread, anymore, but you leave me no choice. It's easy to sit back and take the "let's not jump the gun here" view when your 16 and the world is in the shape it is in today (and I don't mean that as a slam or anything about your age ). But when you've been around long enough to have gone through a few wars AND Presidents, you start to feel the snake as he begins to move. Sept. 11th CAN and WILL happen again if we don't do something about it now. The Towers are gone, but there is the Sear's Tower in Chicago and the Washington Monument and a lot of other places they have threatened to and can get to if they want to. Saddam has already started everything in motion when he admitted wanting to give chemical weapons to the Tali-ban. Yes I do have a family that I would do whatever it took to protect them. If that means going over there myself and doing whatever I had to do so my family could live in a secure and safe environment back here, then I would do it at a moments notice with no regrets. It's nice to believe that there aren't any threats to our safety, but remember this, "if you can't play with the big dogs then stay on the porch." Saddam is daring us to do something and when we do, we are the ones who are wrong. Well, so be it, then. We'll be wrong and he'll be history. I can live with that. And so can my family.
