Do you understand what a “civil war” is?

It was reported in the papers this morning - _before_ the first plane crashed into the WTC - that the opposition leader in Afghanistan had been assassinated. So I for one have no trouble believing that what’s going on there at the moment could just be part of their civil war. I’m reserving judgement til I hear more of the facts, though.

No, he said he didn’t care _who_ was killed. Why are you apologising for him?

It’s a CIVIL WAR, **non-native**. They’re saying it was an attack on the current leader.

And ALL of our Armed Forces are full alert at the moment.

I have heard multiple reports from multiple news agencies that Palastinians were shooting off guns and passing out sweets in celebration of what happen. These bastards will have their celebration today, and maybe for a few days more, as well. However, Palastine, if they are resonsible, (which has not yet been confirmed) don’t have the slightest idea of what the have done. Messing with the worlds’ leading superpower and killing what may be thousands of it’s innocent citizens was not a good idea. America was badly shaken, but our moral and patriotism still burn strong. There will be sudden and very severe consequences to those responsible and our nation will be brought closer together than ever. The terrorists can run all they want, but they will just die tired. Mess with the best, and you’ll die like the rest. Please pray for those lost and their families and most of all, our nation.  
God bless America.

This is a very important subject, and there are numerous threads in both the BBQ Pit and Great Debates dealing with it.  
I’m locking this off because it is inappropriate for IMHO.
