9/11 - An Attack Against Humanity
I read a very interesting note on meetings between Iran, China, and Russia at misneach blog this evening. I wonder why I haven’t seen this on Fox News? The strategic value of developing closer relationships is clear to see. For anyone who is paying attention.China's rapid growth is fueling an insatiable appetite for Oil.
Russia is looking for any market to sell its products and services. Is Iran hiring? Have they posted any want ads for a nuclear scientist?
Both China and Russia are permanent members of the UN Security Council. Any UN sponsored sanctions against Iran will likely face a veto from one or both of these nations, based upon their own strategic reasons. What is America to do? The military option is unrealistic.
Today, America is over extended militarily and out of touch diplomatically. I am most saddened by the reckless disregard for diplomacy, civility, and sportsmanship the Bush Administration has displayed since 9/11/01. They have managed to pull defeat and division from the jaws of victory and cohesion in the real “war on terror.” Just look at Afghanistan if you doubt this assertion.
The world mourned with us and for themselves after Sept. 11th. The attack on the World Trade Center was not only an attack upon America. It was an attack against all humanity. Citizens of far too many other countries died on 9/11 in NYC.
The other countries and thousands of families who lost loved ones at “ground zero” are fighting their own personal wars on terror everyday. Their lives have been changed forever. How dare we allow our “public servants” to exploit their sufferings to launch a preemptive war on Iraq, while not bringing Bin Laden to justice?

how did you do that? how did you get the trackback / links-to-this-post thing to work? I've been trying to figure it out for like a month...
misneach,
I think I figured it out. The captian reads. "Links to this post." I built a hyper-link in my post directly to your post (not the blog). I'll try it again later from another blog and see what happens.
Excellent blog. If you hadn't posted on my blog, I never would have found you. Thanks, and keep it up!
Thanks for visiting Unknown. I found your blog searching under "The Dark Side" after watching PBS last night.
Thanks for your comment on my blog. It's a very thoughtful article you wrote. The spending on the war in Iraq is way out of control. I like your blog. Take care.
