This action has basically given the US carte blanche to take out whomever they deem to have been responsible, or contributed to this terrorist action. The whole country is screaming for revenge - and that scream will only get louder as the death toll rises. The Bush administration cannot ignore this cry for blood, but they can pick and choose the target of their retribution.
How about this for a scenario - Bin Laden masterminded the whole thing, but Iraq trained and supported the suicide terrorists responsible ....
Now the US can thoroughly punish both these nations,(Afganistan and Iraq) by waging war with very little opposition.
What happened today was horrifying... but tomorrow will be Hell on Earth.
