Tonight as I sat and watched the news on one of my very few breaks in the past couple of days, I saw analysts speaking of coming retribution against terrorist-harboring nations.
One of them said a very interesting and disturbing thing.
He said (not quoting): "The American public, and the world, might not be able to handle the form of retribution meted out by the alliance forming to crush terrorism."
It shocked and saddened me.
The consensus is, that once we set out to make our lives safer, it might be too much for the public to bear. We may not understand what it takes to win this war.
For those of you who may be mistaken, innocents will die.
Everyone seems to think this will be a one-sided killing spree set upon the people of Afghanistan, or whatever country we need to deal with.
IT WILL NOT BE SO.
More will die on American soil, on British soil, on German soil, hell, even French soil. My point: this war will be very two-sided.
Even as we TALK about retribution, these maniacs want to kill more people.
Last night, on one of the first flights out of JFK Airport no less, they caught MORE of these people with knives, pilot uniforms, and pilot liscences. They can\'t wait to kill, while we sit and debate whether or not we should do this.
What will it take before you realize that WE MUST DO SOMETHING!! Will it take the death of a family member before you realize that we have to take life, in order to preserve our own?
We fight with words, while they kill indescriminately. They look on crying people missing brothers, wives, mommies, daddies, sisters, aunts, uncles, dear friends, even mere acquaintences, and laugh.
The only way we have to prove that it is in everyone\'s best interest to not let these pieces of sh i t stay in your country is to hit hard, and callously. Let them see that it will do them NO good to keep these people safe. Even Pakistan is pissing themselves because we are so pissed.
I am absolutely begging you to gather up your courage, and stand strong and tall against the coming horrors, inflicted by both sides, because, as the men who fought and died in Viet Nam can attest, a nation not behind its military will bring about its destruction. When they are flying airplanes into landmarks filled with THOUSANDS of our innocents, we are still worried about theirs.
Do not ever forget the people who have died.
Never, ever let this memory fade.
Make certain you are prepared for distributing justice, because it will be brutal. It MUST be brutal, for the sake of America.
Please, let me hear alternatives.
