How would blowing two countries off of the face of the earth be "an eye for an eye"? The attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11th caused the deaths of just under 3000 people.
4139 U.S. soldiers have died since then, fighting this pointless war. We've lost more people from retaliating to the attacks than we lost in the attacks themselves.
Somewhere in the ballpark of 90,000 Iraqi civilians have died during this pointless war. CIVILIANS.
The people who attacked the World Trade Center were not Iraqi military. They were an independant group of fanatical terrorists. Claiming we should destroy two countries for the actions of a few fanatics to take "an eye for an eye" makes you an asshat.
Good day, sir.

By standing idle and watching people bomb us and bomb us and pretend it isnt happening is more pointless then this pointless war. The way we are going about this war is pointless. People kill because they can get away with it. If it was a radical group, then - where did they come from? The exact countires that need to be wiped off the face of this planet. Because you know what, mark my words they will strike again - they will kill more 1000's of our civilians, then we will wage another war against them, and have 1000's of more soldiers killed. and then ill let you figure out what happens next... ps, they strike again.
USA needs to set the bar, you do not f*ck with the most powerful country in the world.
