Did the thousands of US men, women and children deserve to die yesterday?
Did they have anything to do with the irrational and inhumane abuse of the
Palestinians? No, none of them, not even one had anything to do directly
with the living conditions of the Palestinians. There is no excuse for cold
hearted behavior by any group of people. And as far as I am concerned, their
actions of celebrations over these horrible murders of INNOCENT United
States Citizens, make them no better and just as guilty as the ones that
actually did it. Because they obviously supported the men that actually did
the act of terriorism towards the US!

I believe that those who did this act of war and those that celebrated it
and support it should all face the same punishment. Because there is no
difference between those who carried it out and those who wished they would
have!!!
