>>believe we should support stopping the human rights atrocities that are going on in the other parts of the world. But, a sad fact of life is we probably will not do anything about it until we feel it is beginning to threaten our way of life.

To those who support invading every nation which commits violations of basic human rights (I'll ignore this nations own violations for the moment) I salute you. That is a principled stand.

But those who keep talking about 9/11 and terrorist acts committed by Arab Muslims as a justification for this war . . . miss one thing. Not all Arab Muslims are terrorists. None of the terrorist acts listed in your post have been linked to Iraq, yet you post that as a justification for the war on Iraq. Why do you asscoiate them with Iraq? Is it because you think all Arab Muslims are the same?
