Thanks very much ox-nato for post.Bumping for a later read.

As Christians, we must heed Christ's DEMAND of us and turn the other cheek. Any attack on these terrorists is simply spitting in Jesus' face. Let us all bow our heads in prayer that Jesus' Will will be carried out. Amen

[blam]

I heard John Kasich talking on Fox tonight that it was time for us to bring Saudia Arabia to task for their support for terrorists. They give lots of money, apparently.

[First_Salute]

A perfect example of going after the weakest supporter of the Nation of Terrorism.

When Cuba, North Korea, Red China, Syria, Libya, Iran, and Iraq are who we also facing as opponents because they have sustained the world socialist protective umbrella under which such terrorism has found security.

Are we going to stand up to Cuba?

Oh PAAALLLLLLLLLEASE!

[Lady In Blue]

As INDIVIDUAL Christians we are to turn the other cheek(except protecting our families)BUT as a nation,we have every right to defend ourselves! According to your interpretation, this nation should just sit back and let ourselves get bombed back to the stone age! Unbelievable!

[Holden Magroin]

Too bad God was too busy to stop any of this from happening.

[rb22982]

uh, yeah, and send the signal that we are weak on terrorism and won't do anything about it---so they do it again in a month or whenever. That's the ticket.

[Hillary 666]

We're gonna kick bin Ladens can around the block for drill. And Arafat has the life expectancy of a house fly. Turning the other cheek is what killed 20,000 Americans. We tried the flower child approach for 8 years and got nothing but a lot of dead people. No more. As usual, the pacifists will be dragged kicking and screaming into doing the right thing and later thank those of who can step up and kick ass.

[Golden Eagle]

Betty, Jesus said turn the other cheek to verbal insults, not to suicidal murdering plane thieves.

The Old Testament is in the Bible, too. It is inspired as well (if you are a Christian, you surely believe this). I recall the part about "an eye for an eye."

[Lent]

Shame on you. Read the whole counsel of God - the 13th chapter of the Book of Romans:

exerpt:"Then do what is right and he [governing authority] will commend you. For he is God's servant to do you good. But if you do wrong, be afraid, for he does not bear the sword for nothing. He is God's servant, an agent of wrath to bring punishment on the wrong-doer"(v.4).

Not true. We have turned the other cheek again...and again...and yet again. It is time for action. It is time for justice. It is time to destroy the terrorists.

[Antoninus]

My solution? Flatten Iraq and Afganistan. Grab Saddam and hang him in NYC. Expell all the 'Palistinians' from Israel and resettle them in what's left of Iraq. Tell any other Arab states if they even think about harboring terrorists... they're next.

[Snuffington]

This is an excellent time to try to soothe the bad blood between Russia and NATO. We're both on the same side on this issue. Russian expertise and assistance would make a huge contribution to this effort. And it ought to go a long way toward resolving their Chechnyan problem as well.

[Southflanknorthpawsis]

Have you ever heard of "just wars"? You are woefully wrong, BBC.

[neutrino]

Thanks for a very interesting bit of news!

[ClaireSolt]

Surely, noone is talking a ground invasion of Afghanistan. If so, we have more senile generals than I thought, and the terrorists got the wrong part of the Pentagon.

Too bad Betty, Christians fought off an infatada in the Middle East a thousand years ago, and it looks like we must do it again. It is PC to denounce the crusades, but Jesus was not PC. Of course, we could stand by until every head bows to allah. Is that what you want?
