Comment A change of attitude (Score 1) 1402
At the moment, I have no idea what kind of retaliation or response we should make. I guess I'd like to wait and see what information comes in, whether it is a country, or just a group of people (most likely). What I do know is my attitude toward situations in the middle east have changed. When the uprisings started, I'll admit I favored Israel (too many memories of PLO terrorists from when I was a kid, I guess) although in recent weeks with assasinations and other military attacks and mistreatment of Palestinians, I found myself sympathizing with Palestinians. However, that all disapeared after watching them cheer the deaths of Americans and any sympathy I felt for them is gone. In fact while watching the WTC fall down yesterday, I was thinking the best way to solve the Palestinian question would be to send Israel bigger bombs to use. I know this is just anger speaking and I'll feel different in a couple of days, I don't think that the Palestinians should count on the US to help with negotiations in the future because I doubt most of us give a crap what happens to them. If this offends anyone. Just venting what I'm feeling today...
