What do you mean by when? The U.S. have always been offensive; that is, afterall, the basis for why this atrocity occured!
Don’t for a minute kid yourself that the US government means it when they declare a ‘War against Terrorism’; that will be proven to be nothing more than a shower of Political Rhetoric.
They want one man and one man only; with or without proof; and they have covered themselves in case they are wrong!
Once they have achieved that goal and turned the world upside down and shaken it about nothing else will happen.
ETA will still blow up cars in Madrid.
The IRA will still kill innocent civilians.
The Colombians will still kidnap and mutilate oil workers.
AbouSaif will still kidnap and behead Filipinos.
And the rest…
The US are once again showing disregard to and ignorance of the probable repercussions on many more people than those that so tragically died on 11 September.
I have watched the TV, read the newspapers, read this web-site every day; and the US still appears to have learned nothing and is once again creating an emotional rollercoaster that is soon going to become unstoppable with devastating results for a large part of the world.
They have again proved their inability to accept any criticism and met it with the usual ‘Bull in a China Shop’ attitude. I have not seen one post from a US citizen who appears able to look at what has happened with an open mind and heart.
Until the masses of the US begin to look at and understand and appreciate the fact that there is a big wide world outside its borders nothing is ever going to change!
