I just said I think George Bush did something good by trying to go after bin Laden, and you say that I favor letting terrorists get away with what they did? Let alone what you're saying about bin Laden not mattering anymore. It's almost like you're reading what you want to see. Please expand your view of my posts before you reply to them like that. I do not appreciate you accusing me of such things.
As for Iran launching a telecommunications sattelite into space - that's wonderful! Until it is confirmed that such scientific advancements are to be used for acts of terrorism, I don't have a problem with their society's evolution. That's the problem - advancements of the Middle East have always been held back by Western countries for fear of their potential uses, and their society has been held back for fear of nationalization of natural resources. Ahmadinejad has shown that he's not a complete monster the past couple weeks, and I hope that Obama follows through with his offer of discussions. It's the time to use different strategies than bomb the hell out of them.
And that'll be all from me for this topic, since I don't want to steer it from what raybob wanted it to originally be (that happens a lot with his threads I noticed). I just wanted to get my view out there, and I thank you for expressing yours, Urbanoutlaw. I realize people differ, and that's why I'm not prepared to make sassy remarks about your opinions.
