Nobody who lost a loved one on 9/11 has more standing, or ought to, than any of us in the public debate on the War on Terror.
It was an attack on the nation, not a targeted murder of anyone's individual loved one.
The war is not simply about justice for the victims, it's about preventing future attacks by an enemy hell bent on our destruction.
Just as WWII was not an act of vengeance for the attack on Pearl Harbor and it's casualties, but about eliminating enemies hell bent on world domination.
Here here! I do not recall the widows of Pearl Harbor parading on CBS news demanding that they determine what our policy toward Japan ought to be.
