First of all, my heart goes out to all affected by this most horrible event,
no one deserved what happened today, American or otherwise.

We all won the war...
The Allies. Their decendants. Those of us here.
We all lost people in WWII.
To take credit for winning it, that seems a bit shallow. Just a thought.
It is my deepest wish that the perpertrators of the horror which befell
america today have the deadly results rained upon them a thousandfold in
return.
