With what has transpired (with this attack on America,) many people feel that violence isn't the answer to end all of terrorism. But we shouldn't just roll over on our belly and expect for all of this to just fade away. Of course wounds will heal, and soon we'll get back on track with work and everyday life, but there's no telling when our country will face another attack this strong, or perhaps even stronger.

It is well documented that Bin Laden has been trying to buy uranium (to make atomic bombs). If action is not taken now to wipe out the terrorists, then next time there will be a mushroom cloud over NYC. In this country, we shouldn't have to live in fear. We shouldn't have to fear for our kids when they head off to school, at the end of the day, (throughout all of the craziness that goes on,) all we want to do is to be at peace with our ourselves, and our friends and family.

This past weekend, officials in Massachusetts were warned that Boston could have been targeted for a terrorist attack. City officials declined to discuss what was told to them in a phone call, but they said there is no evidence that another attack is in the offing and that residents should not be alarmed. Meanwhile, police in France arrested seven people Friday in connection with an investigation into alleged plans to attack American interests in France, including the U.S. Embassy in Paris. I am not calling for the obliteration of Afghanistan - the Russians did this 20 years ago. But measured military action is the ONLY way to destoy those who want to destroy liberty and freedom.
