However, I cannot condone an act of Terrorism against the United States of America.

1979 Iran1998 Nairobi, Kenya, 1998 Dar es Saalam, 2006 Chad, 2008 Belgrade, Sebia...all embassy attacks with no immediate response to the terrorists. I agree with you on the terrorist attack on our embassy in Belgrade.

We have now three living Presidents that wholly do not understand that an attack on any of our embassies is an attack on our sovereign soil.

Unacceptable.

Don’t forget about Beirut 1983.

This "attack" in lieu of all the other attacks is not comparable to those mentioned by you. The one in Belgrade is peanuts, so I would not consider that "attack" in the same category when compared to what the Klintonista War in Kosovo was in illegality. So, I don't consider it to be a terrorist act as you do.

Serbs were very restrained and disciplined in holding back, if they really hated us here in America, they would have taken down the entire embassy, which they did not.

If Texas was taken away from you in the middle of the night, how would you respond to the Mexican Embassy? Sending your thoughts in a public forum or letter of protest? I think you would act differantly and your reaction would be as severe or just as bad, wouldnt it? Wouldn't it be? I thought you would say that as I already know your atypical reply to that answer.

The US doesn’t respect sovereignty of the nations, so why should it expects to have hers respected in kind? Pot meet kettle.
