    I hear the U.S. is getting support from the U.N. incase we need to go after the people who did this and there country protects them..Even Russia is on our side usually they always have a problem with us no matter what..China i didn't hear anything on them..I just hope we do something about this and not just talk..It is time to show these little B stards we are not scared and we will protect our selves in any way or fashion..We owe this to the inosent people that got hurt and killed..

    God Bless

    I'm not surprised that Russia supported us. They did during the Gulf War too.

    Russia senses a real threat from the Islamic nations to the south of it. Part of this is based on a long history of savage warfare with the Turks and other Central Asian peoples. Also, Arabs and Turks have conquered and destroyed other nations sharing the Orthodox faith, and done it in the name of Islam. This is a history that goes back more than 1300 years.

    More recently, ethnic Russians, basically colonists who got stranded by a retreating colonial power, have been brutally persecuted in former Soviet republics like Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. Murders in open daylight are not uncommon.

    I do business with an immigrant from the former Soviet Union, and he responded to the horrible mass murder on Tuesday by sharing his low opinion of Arabs. People who live anywhere near the Islamic bloc are extremely concerned about it. Now that it's obvious we can no longer retreat from Islamic fanaticism, perhaps we need to confront it.

    Ok i see now.., I was not great in history class at all but now i wish i paid more attention..But really why are these people always threatining our country? We know where that big jerk is hiding out but yet we never moved in to get him and just look what he did to us this time..I really dont want to see war because it puts our people at risk but if we dont do anything something worse could happen..I think instead of using planes and people first i think we should use missleS and then move in and get the job done right and then go visit Sadam too..

    Bill B,

    I like your technical term of "big jerk". Truly unexpected. Most of us are calling him A----le and MF, but you opted for the less potty-mouth version. Made me giggle. Thanks.
