[Rhodes22-list] What do you do with monsters?

[Richard and Sherry Day]

I think many people have forgotten just exactly how this "war on terrorists"
started.  Was it not because of the destruction on 9/11 masterminded by
Osama Bin Laden?  I have grave concerns why we are warring on the nation of
Iraq when Osama is still at large.  Isn't HE the KNOWN terrorist ....THE
ENEMY?  Gentleman, if 1,000 of our finest our sacrificed wouldn't it have
been just as noble if it was in the pursuit to avenge the close to 3,000
American lives lost because of  Osama Bin Laden's destruction of the two
towers in New York, and take him out dead or alive???
  It seems so much more sensible if we would have cut off the "head of the
snake" by terminating  Osama and spent the 200 plus BILLION dollars that we
have spent on the war in Iraq to "beef" up our homeland security across our
land and borders.   Consequently they, terrorist wannabe's, would be
leaderless,  any terrorist who wanted the top spot would really know how far
the U.S. would go to reach them, we would still have the global nations 100%
behind us to help fight any upstart terrorist formulations/organizations and
our home front would be adequately fortified.
  I appreciate reading all the opinions even though this isn't about
sailing, Hey, that's what makes us unique.  Richard Day, Iowa Rhodie

hate to tell you guys. It Steve was not that bad(but remember I have my own
moments), not to the point of hog tying and being feed
to the dogs. Or worst yet silencing him. Also I rather have professionals
dealing with it over their then on out street here. That
is right, people die. Also they are using a collective punishment method,
killing men women and children. maybe we should go back to
the old ways of liquating whole villages, towns, city and country's.  If
reson not working maybe fear and dead men do not cause
trouble.

I can already hear, nut case, hilter, uninformed, we know better, etc. etc.
etc, Remeber in it only be the last 75+- year that war
have been "neat" and like a criminal arrest. before that for all of mans
history it been winner take all and frankly kill them all.
That is the rules they want to fight by. I hear it every time they speck,
steve wants to play by thier rules and kill them first,
That does not make him wrong any more that "thier is no bad
boy/contry/people" make the otherside right. no, it all just a view. I
give you anyother way to think about it. I thing the last 50 years of war
fighting might be brought into question, by taking the
"buchery" out of war it has become to neat and clean,  like a football game.
kill 20 on a bus boom, wipe out a village of 20,000,
not neat, not clean, just bulldoze into the ground. While I am at it why did
everyone figure G-d to be a nice guy, seem to me very
ruthless and cold blooded when needed.

That should stir the pot, BTW steve lay off the name calling,  seems "poor
sportmanship", they are missing the point in the langue.
