    Do you really think that most Americans are grateful for your protests; aside
    form Hollywood foreign policy analyst, Susan Sarandon, of course? My guess is
    that the plurality of American citizens, whether for the deposition of
    Saddam's regime or not, are indeed not pleased by such protests. We'd have to
    see a poltical poll of this to verify it though.

    <<I and the argument that America has lost the lives of many
    of it`s citizens,America has my sympathies in this
    aspect but if every country started declaring war on
    other countries because they had lost some of their
    citizens through terrorist attacks then there would be
    a war every other week.One must realize that one lands
    pain at tragedy is no greater than any others.Take
    care Brian Booth>>

    I recognize the "humanity" and the"human condition" that unites us all. Hence
    my persistence on this list. That being said, you seem to indicate, if I
    comprehend your position, that therefore the US should do nothing against the
    apparently predatory, nature of the axis of evil and weasels? Well, as I
    have attempted to point out, more than once, on this list, when it happens to
    you, then you will know. Sorry, Bali was terrible, but Bali ain't Melbourne
    or Perth. Please remember this post, and when it happens, see if you blame
    the Americans or the Jihadi?

    Yours in Cthulu,
