I am glad that you said U.S. government because a majority of the people do not endorse what we are doing over there. We have stired a hornets nest with a stick. I only hope that nobody else gets stung. Even though I know that it is endless.

I do not condone killing of any kind oen thing is for sure both parties involved are going about the wrong way. The US trained and armed them [initially], and meddled in things that they should have not gone into the first place. the terrorists' retaliation is unacceptable and the world's muted silence to stop the killing is a bigger folly.

Im writing this more as a response to nawab's answere because its pretty clear that paksitan's being spared because of strategic reasons in the subcontinent region. as far nawb's answere is concerned and his reference to pakistan having a "big" stake in the fight against terrorism and that pakis dying and the casualty number being more than 9/11 victims and also the highlight being and which forced me to post this answere that pakistan's "strategy" winning the war agaist U.S.S.R. Im glad that he pointed out the fact that the US supplied money and weapons for the war against soviet union, however american military and the american intelligence is n was not stupid enough to tell pakistan that "ok guys here's the dow n here's the hardware, go and kick ass we know u can do it on ur own while we sit at pentagon n watch the video game". cmon give urself a break and come back to reality for gawd's sake dude, pakistan couldn't even win a war against india and paki military was not even half of what its right now then (not that its any better now) and you think the US IS GONNA THROW ALL THAT MONEY AND military resources on a country like that and depend on its strategies? yeah rt? The war was majorly won because of the afghan terrain and the afghan mujahideen guirellas and also things were not going great at home for the reds and the deterioration of soviet union had started by then. tye strategies were completely provided by the US military ad to an extent the afgahn mujahideen AND NOT BY THE PAKI MILITARY (maybe there were jobless pakis fighting the war just like they are doing right now by joinign different terrorist organisations). The problems that pakistan faces today and why it has to pump in so much of itys own resources in fighting the terrorist is becoz of it s own "policies and stragies" that it followed, which was supporting taliban and other hard core terrorist groups and also turnign a blind eye to their recruitment and other unacceptable activities because pakistan wanted to get abck at india for helping bangladesh break away by cultivating terrorsit camps. entire world knows that in paki mosques  on fridays there are people collecting and donating money openly and freely in the name of islam which is used for terrorist activites. so pakistan is not the victim here its the perpetrator. its the paki guy who was the master mind behind 9/11 and the london bombers were trained in pakistan and also the 7 terrorist caught in london recently were alos trained in apkistan which they admitted. yes there are good people in pakistan but majority of them hate US and the wesatern world(no one knows for sure why the master mind of 9/11 who is a paki palnned it in the fiors place, he had no good reason to do that). they hate the same world were they immigrate to and crawl to all the nook and corners of new york or london or sydney abd then support terrorism from tere. pakistan is a country which is created by spiulling blood and it will get washed away in blood in its own blood. god bless america!!

I hear your comment, but not even the 3000 thousand that died in the towers equals the deaths from the American military. No death is valid as far as I am concerned. I really believe that America doesn't have the real story. An attack is a valid reason to sign a "Declaration of War," but the Bush Administration doesn't have one. I am concerned about this, as to it doesn't make any sense. Going into Iraq was unwarranted, and once again no "Declaration of War" was signed. This makes America appear to be just as much of a terrorist nation as the attackers. It's not proper etiquette to our Democracy and policies. The Republicans don't believe in Democracy, it is a Republic type of Government that America is being ruled by at the present. I don't agree with these types of policies and the rest of the World is also appalled by the Bush Administrations actions. All of this could lead to a larger Global War I am afraid. I say voting the Republicans out of office in November is Americas only choice at this point. I don't want to die for a small group of red-necks that stir up problems, and wont play a part in the military. My personal feelings that's all.

My answer is not going to be liked but.......Americans are self absorbed and greedy. They are a fast food, drive through pharmacy, no time to breath culture that has no respect for anything that does not prersonally effect them. They refuse to see the rest of the worlds struggles. Yes I am American but wow, how this country has gotten this way I don't know. When the bombing happend in England, I heard people say..."that was no 9-11 though" Absolutely ridiculous, death is death and struggle is struggle. There have been terroristic holy wars for decades that people refuse to see unless it is in their back yards. My opinion, agree or not.

Well for a bunch of Pakis... it is right, because all they learn from birth till suicide bomb death is how to become a suicide bomber.. So yes, for a bunch of morons, it is oaky...well, it  reduces America's burdern if pakis are destroying their own property...good.

A flag ceremony pays respect to your country.  This should be done in silence.

America? Seriously? go tell an Iranian to talk bad against his country and see what happens. America? arrogant? hmmmmm.....did you read the headlines last week when in afghanistan a man that once belived in Islam converted to Chrisitianity was put on trial with a possible death sentance? He was going to be killed for beliveing in the religion of his choice!!!!!! Yet in this God awful and arrogant self obsessed county of ours this same man can believe in anything he wants and still not be persacuted (sic). yeah, america is arrogant. give me a break. believe in who you want is our stupid arrogant freedom. america is so dumb for letting say what you want. it sucks so bad that we are not oppressed by any single religion or faith. it is just so freaking horrible that we can turn on the tv or radio and listen the crap that we want to. yeah, this country is arrogant and I am damned proud that my best friend died at my side giving you the the right to say that this country is self obsessed.

There are two reasons for this. One, America stands to profit from a leader like Musharraf. Musharraf may have snatched the position of power in an unscruplous way, but he still manages to keep his country fairly peaceful and does not encourage jehad(holy war) openly. So it makes sense having a leader with a popular vote (despite no democracy), one who does not bomb India/the world. \n\nSecondly, India's association with the US is fine, but it would never accept any war attacks on China from its soil. The next best bet? Pakistan of course. Pakistan also benefits economically out of this friendship - F 16s, nuclear technology, emergency aid et al. So the US actually benefits having a base to declare war on China(similar to Puerto Rico to keep an eye on Cuba) \n\nNow, having voiced my opinion on the Pak friendship, US actually preaches democracy and tries to install the same whereever possible. But when trying to install democracy or instigating change does not benefit the US economically, it does not do anything. Makes sense, after all US is a capitalistic economy. \n\nIts all a case of how-is-it-going-to-help-me and that is really what makes the US great!

You are right. It is either kill or be killed. I mean, for some people, talking can do. But, for others, there are  no other means. If they want to kill you for no other reason then hating you because you are an American and they come after you, you just can't stand there. You got to fight! You got more reasons to live then they have reasons for killing you. That is how we keep America safe.

Having spent the last two months in Pakistan, I feel that there is no way but forward for the country to go.  Having spent a few years back and forth to India, I have found Pakistan the far better of the two countries.  May be it is about time American companies started looking towards Pakistan, a country that cares more for the US then India, ie:  the latest demonstrations in Hyderabad, home of Dell HP Yahoo.

People say "because they cant be trusted with them!", which is ridiculous. I dont expect they think we can be trusted with them either! \n\nWe are not the world police!\n\nI am sick and tired of Americas "DO AS I SAY, NOT AS I DO" attitude. Its incredibly patronising and shows a blatent lack of respect for other nations.....which, by the way, is exactly what spurs the terrorists on in the first place.

I agree with you - it is two faced! Why is it ok for America to bomb Afghanistan when the legitimate government, the Taliban, who were America's allies against Soviet invaders, were unable to hand over Osama bin Laden? (The new government even with aid from American Navy Seals, Britisn SAS and Ausie SAS troops have not been able to accomplish this task). With that logic Britain should have bombed the USA for not handing over Irish-Americans in NY and Boston - the biggest sponsors of terrorism against the UK, the Irish Republican Army.\n\nIn the same way why did USA not bomb Pakistan for harbouring Osama and Al Queda, running Madrassas where hatred and violence against all other religions is taught. Yet Musharaf was given bribes by Bush and allowed to be a nuclear power. Why is Pk allowed to threaten India with nuclear war and sponsor terrorists to kill MPs in the democratic India Parliament building but Bush told India not to retaliate? Why is Iran not allowed to develop a nuclear deterrent like North Korea's, when US performed blitzkrieg, invasion & occupation on Iran's neighbours who were former US allies: Iraq & Afghanistan!   \n\nWhy is Bush trying Saddam for killing revolutionary seperatist Kurds using the same method Winston Churchill did to the Kurds - poison gas, but sold to him by Donald Rumsfeld (who even embraced Saddam and declared that Saddam was his best friend in the world!!!); but kissing China's communist leader's a.s.s. when China has threatenned Bush with nuclear war over Taiwan & killed their own citizens - students protesting that they want democracy!

First off Nunitak, your a complete and total idiot. \n\nServing on a military funeral detail, where we actually fired a 21-gun salute. It is held in the military as the ultimate form of respect. Yes we do give it to key figures such as the president, but only as a sign of respect.\n\nThere is nothing more humbling than seeing a widow cry when the 21 gun salute is fired, and then taps played.
