Okay - how about the clarification on this one....in the *OTHER* thread (the one I am NOT allowed to post on since I have this thread) several comments were made regarding "where are the weapons of mass destruction?" -- in my opinion, AIRPLANES are weapons of mass destruction as well as nuclear weapons, bombs, etc. I used this statement to convey that since "no weapons of mass destruction" were found, that *some* people think that the war on terrorism was unfounded. I disagree with this assumption, and used my statement to convey that we never KNOW if/when another incident like this will occur.
So what is disgusting about this is that you *assumed* I was using a national tragedy to be frivolous, when in fact, I was using it as a reply to those who are posting "where are the weapons" -- unfortunately, I am not allowed to post it there, so I did it here.
Thankfully my brother is en route at this very moment back to the States -- his ship arrives in Norfolk tomorrow, and we will be there to greet him and his fellow servicemen/women. I am so proud of the part he has played in helping make America safer, and I sleep better at night knowing that he and all service personnel are on watch.
