The UN didn't vote to go to war with Iraq.
If the terrorists should be attacking anyone, it would be more logical for them to attack agents of the United States.. not the principled organization that refused to legitimize the invasion and occupation of Iraq.
The terrorists' "logic" confused me more than anything else. I want no bloodshed on any side of the equation, but if someone were to ask me if the terrorists were more likely to attack the U.S. or the U.N., I would've confidently predicted the U.S.
also: I'm tired of war. Of death. I want relative peace and calm and prosperity again. I wonder how long this will last. How long the G.O.P. will continue to exploit disaster and fear for raw political ambitions. So discouraged.
