The USA is the most powerfull nation in the world, so it can affort to sit down a moment and think. Being the strongest, being able to hit any country in the world real hard, makes that you can affort not to rush into things that will cost too many lives of innocent people. And that will finally not really contribute to the final aim: making the world safer with minimum loss of freedom and "open society" The "cowboy talk" of president Bush gives me the impression that his level is not really higher than the "Jerry Springer type" American. I hope strongly that I see this wrong. Or that he has enough wise advicers (Powel?)around him to stop him. If it is really needed to satisfy the american people by throwing a few bombs here and there, let it be. But I hope we will not be sucked into an adventure that will be regretted by all of us, at the end. Starting a guarillia war in Afghanistan will end in a failure. Vietnam is not long ago, the young soldiers leaving america at the beginning of that war showed the same enthousiasme as the boys I see now on television......
