Quote:I think that 9/11 happened for a reason, just like everything else in this world. Do I wish it hadn't happened? Yes I do, but that doesn't mean that it wasn't supposed to happen.Maybe its because I don't believe in God thats causing me to sit here and shake my head in disgust, but in a way you sound just like a terrorist on a mission "from God, doing what is his will." To say and act of such brutality was the will of God, is sickening. I can understand finding comfort in God, saying that the people who died in the attacks were "greeted and cared for by God," etc. but to say that this was intended just seems insane to me.
As for the U.S. acting alone, I don't doubt for a second that we would act alone if indeed we felt we had to. The fact of the matter is, no matter what happens, Britain will remain our ally, and they remain key in diplomatic relations with other European nations. The fact that NATO finally agreed to protect Turkey in the event of a war today is a good sign that if the shit does hit the fan, that our allies will be with us, regardless of how against certain aspects they may be.
Honestly, part of me doesn't even care what happens as long as all of our troops come home in one piece.
