Any semblence of the United States retaliating for the events surrounding 09/11 are unjustifiable due to the U.S. government's actions of intervening militarily and politically

I am sincerely curious.

What do you think would have beeb an appropriate response to 9/11?

Should it just be ignored because our recent history is not without flaw, in your opinion?

Do you not think it dangerous to allow acts of war such as this to pass without retaliation, even when it is unclear who we should retaliate against?

The appropriate response to 09/11 is simple: LEAVE. Back when Ronald Reagan was President, a US embassy in Lebanon was bombed by terrorists in which many of the Marines stationed there to guard the emabssy were killed.

Soon after this occured, I believe Reagan ordered the troops withdrawn and abandoned the embassy. With Bush's talking up of Ronald Reagan, it is unfortunate that Bush seems to not take after him in this regard.

This goes to show me that Bush doesn't give a hoot about the safety and well-being of the troops.
