You know guys none of us are top level world politicans and none of us are the people that are skilled at know when and how it is best to strike.

Maybe she is thinking things through rather than just voting with the masses. I would rather a congress person that actually thought about her vote. Regardless if I agree with her or not.

I have been listening to *A LOT* of militarly and political stratigists and to the one almost all of them say this has to be a well planned and thought out strike.

Right now we don't know exactly who we would be going after and what country they are in AND if they will still be in that country when we are ready to strike. Laden moves around between countries.

The Taliban has said they will strike against anyone that helps the US. Fact is most countries will be helping the US. Therefore the US has a DUTY to do this right and not just 'nuke em all'. Also, if we hit the wrong people we are giving the other terrorists within our (and our allies..did you know that Bin Laden's sister lives in London..neither did we until yesterday) borders will retaliate.

It will just be a back and forth slaughter like the ones that have been running for ages in the middle east.

Whoever did this needs to die. No question there but the answer may not be to just blanket bomb every arab country.

I am *not* saying that she was right. I am just saying perhaps there is more to think about than just the understandable human need for revenge.
