being an offspring of a military personnel, i guess u hear more of war than most people. but then i'm guessing.]
u're right about war not being fun & that it shouldn't in the first place. yeah, terrorists know the deal before signing up for suicide missions but it isn't fair for those who get caught in between. assuming the countries hiding/protecting terrorists are pretty wrong as well. tony blair has been caught while pulling his pants halfway up for 'sexxing up' the 'justification' for war. i never believe/support collateral damage.
just to let u know i'm not angry with US fighting back tooth & nail against terrorists but they're doing it the wrong way. US practically kick down the doors of potential allies that can help in this 'war against terrorism'. accusation won't help. brute force won't help. acting the bully won't help. shutting people up obviously won't help. it may get the result on short term basis but in the long run, this will earn US more enemies (therefore more troubles, tragedies, etc), which nobody obvious want. it hurts everyone of us on the planet.
i wish the terrorists will stop 2 think of their actions that won't help in any way & that US will do the same as well. i'm sure peace has better offer if she is listened to.
ok, i'm way way way offtopic here. sorry, raven.
btw, are characters from chrono trigger relevant in FF series?
