The fact that we returned fire when fired apon is no big deal. That civilians get killed in wars is just a fact. I don't remember anyone being too worried during WWII about the thousands of germans or japanese that we bombed out of their homes and lives. I believe that we were wrong to go to Lebanon. I belive that we have backed, supported etc an agressive expansionist power in the middle east and now we are paying the price for it. (hijackings etc) A more proper forgien policy would be to say "It's your country you settle it. But FUCK with us and you DIE!" dave bottom DEC Augusta Maine !dec-rhea!dec-katadn!bottom "this *IS* my opinion and not that of my employer"
