You know I did miss that declaration of war by the Taliban. In fact I thought our government blamed Al-Queda(sp) or UBL or OSL or anyone but the terrorists who died in the attack.
We did not attack Afghanistan, as you would like to have us all believe. We attacked the Taliban, which is housed in Afghanistan.
So if an attack is made by a foreign power on the United States government they are only attacking the government not the United States?
It happened on 9/11. They just aren't civilized or manly enough to do it on the combat theatre. We have our way of declaring war-they have theirs. Americans died. You can let yourself be caught up in the legalities of declaring war and I'll support our president as he makes steps to secure our homeland.
The difference is that we acted in self-defense. We did not initiate the war. We merely took out those who sponsored terrorism against US Citizens.
If it makes you feel good to use symantics, be my guest. If you can't tell the difference between what they did and what we did, I feel very sorry for you.
Never forget, they attacked our citizens-we attacked their political powers. Is that too much truth for you?
