The bitching about irrelavant "what ifs", so-called "innocent" bystanders... and on and on and on... amazes me.
Sure. Okay. So it's very likely that Bin Laden has some weapons. His entire fanatical cult can't be comprised ONLY of sheep. Well so what. He will strike back harder? Please. Open your fucking eyes. Have you seen the US hardware lately? Have you ever seen our warplanes? Our Apaches? Our destroyers and carriers? Ever seen a Patriot cruise missile? I don't give a fuck what Bin Laden has. It simply does not compare.
We should not go to war? Are we going to send Rosco P. Coaltrain and Boss Hogg over to deal with this then? Please offer up some other substantial and realistic solution. Until then, shut the fuck up.
All the "innocent" people? Maybe there are a few. You know what? They should be rising up and overthrowing there fuckin' oppresive dictators then. This shit has gone on long enough. If they can't take out the trash, we will. End of story.
Something else Bin Laden and other fucks in this world probably don't take into account: Our people don't do our fighting out of fear of retribution if they don't. Our military is comprised of people that genuinely, honestly, and voluntarily WANT to kick ass.
And that is why we are so damn good at it.
All the fucking what ifs and crying and tree hugging makes zero difference. And threatening more terrorist bullshit as their wishful thinking "revenge" will only piss us off more. Whether anyone wants to admit it or not, the US is not a country you want to anger.
That's not patriotism talking. It's a fucking fact.

America... Still kickin' ass after two hundred & twenty five years.
