Interesting questions and statements Ross. Today's events are certainly very,
very tragic and saddening. The long term effects of these attacks could/will be
devasting.
I hope the U.S. first finds out who did this horrible crime, then makes damn
sure that those people are guilty. From then on, the U.S. can make a decision
on how to punish the accused.
No more unnecessary blood should be spilled. Like you said, mistakes should not
be treated just as "collateral damage".
My thoughts and prayers go out to all the families of the victims.
