If its a choice between sitting on the same side of the fence as George W, and sitting on the other side with the terrorists, I would have no choice but to sit on the fence. Both sides of the fence are distasteful. I am never one to blame the people of a country for the policy of ones government, but I am constantly astounded that Americans still think you can defeat terror by engaging in state sponsored terror, or supporting implicitly state sponsored terror (ie. Israel). There is outcry at a terrorist attack on an Expat compound in Saudi (and rightly so), but where is the outcry from those same people when a raid on a Palestinian town, "accidentally" kills women and children, while seeking out "terrorists". Oh sorry that is considered to be "collateral damage".
