Interesting quote from CNN online:
Russian President Vladimir Putin also sent a telegram to Bush.
"Dear George," he wrote, "such an inhuman act must not go
unpunished."
I'm sure that the US is going to strike back at the terrorist organizations
that are responsible for yesterday's acts of terror. I am not certain
personally that the US will strike back in the most moral way possible. I
suppose we could take the most moral and humanitarian steps possible to
confront the terrorist groups and ask them nicely to surrender their weapons
and come peacefully to the US to face trials for their actions.
What is the most appropriate way to deal with terrorists in order to prevent
further acts of violence against innocent civilians?
