Just what makes yours arguements facts rather than opinions? Nothing that I see. Stop trashing everyone for having their own opinions.
Look, this video has done exactly what the terrorists wanted it to do: play on our emotions. When you let your emotions rule you, common sense goes out the window. That is exactly why most people
shouldn't watch the video. Most people in this country are way too tied to their emotions.
Thousands of people are murdered for reasons much more stupid than this every year by our people. Where's the outrage about that? Why is the death of a guy who didn't have the common sense to get the fuck out of that country any worse than any other death from the war?

So the proper response to a murder is genocide? Sure, let's kill millions of innocent people to "get even" I'm sure that would give us the international support we need. Luckily, even Gov. Bush is smart enough to know that wouldn't be the answer.
Our current approach to the War on Terror is wastefull, both monitarily and in the lives that are lost. Don't fool yourself into thinking that we can just kill enough and the rest will be too afraid to attack us again. Also don't fool yourself into thinking that our enemies are foolish or cowards. They are fighting an effective war.
I'm not saying I know what we should be doing. I don't know. It still doesn't mean that I can't see that we are getting nowhere with our current approach.
