We need to find the terrorists living among us.

The fact that individuals have the right to an opposing opinion, is what the terroists hate. They are not interested in what your beliefs are the only thing that matters to them is that it differs wiht thier own. So in thier opinion you must be silenced ,converted ,or destroyed.

Yoko Ono should be sending her peace message to the middle east, America knows all about peace.

We have found the enemy and they is us we are the terrorists living among ourselves.

The big step would be to give the Palestinians their own country. Israel should remember that they were not a country until 1947(?) when we basically kicked the Palestinians off their own land and gave it to Israel. Time for them to recognize the Palestinians as a people and a country.

GIVE PEACE A CHANCE

Yoko sends her peace message to everyone everywhere.

Violence begets violence. GPAC!!!

It's a shame war

so america...i'm English and when i saw the appaling atrocities unfold before my eyes i-like everyone else on the planet was stunned-but i had this deep-down feeling that something had to give,and if you can put the obvious media/propoganda that has been rammed down all of our throats aside for just one minute and ask yourself-the real self-the one you go to sleep with ,and be honest with yourself,i think that you'll find that at the end of the day America as a nation has bullied and stamped on smaller less powerful nations for decades and it was America that armed this bastard in the first place,please dont get me wrong i aint no far left activist im just a normal lad from manchester ,and i in no-way condone the actions of terrorists-but americans need to get a good grip on what terrorism actually is.....i have lost two freinds to terrorists-killed innocently whilst simply going out to the city centre to go shopping on a saturday afternoon.....the IRA had planted a bomb and hundreds of people were hurt and it isnt the first time either we in England have lived with terrorism for years...real terrorism...but the main source of funding for the IRA comes from americans who's second-cousins-freinds-brother once knew someone who was irish and watched that blockbuster film about how the IRA suffer under the English and harp back to their 'irish' roots when they've never even been to the place-THESE PEOPLE ARE TERRORISTS but yet year after year money is sent from America to fund 'the cause'....when president Bush talks of a 'war against terroism'-does he include the IRA in this?-i think not as there are too many so called-irish/americans who vote and he does'nt want to upset the apple cart....strangely enough the IRA have kaept a reasonably low-profile since the atricities of sept 11 and even had the audacity to offer condolences to the families affected ......TALK OF HARD FACED!!...i wish America would open their eyes and see that these paople are simply gangsters who have bombed mainland Britain for thirty years-hundreds/ney thousands of people have died or lives have been destroyed by these terrorists but yet America continues to fund these people-anything at arms length-and here again we have America and England beggining a campaign that in our so called democracy has'nt even been passed through parliment-so we find ourselves involved in a war where we have no say whatsoever in....ask yourselves this question-do you really want to be involved in a 'war'-when the other side are not even affluent enough to provide the basic means of survival??....its like putting a 3 month old baby in a ring with mike Tyson ....and that is'nt a far fetched that is exactly what it is like......i understand America's frustration at the events as every person in England feels the same frustration when we hear of another family who have lost a family member innocently....but there are better ways of dealing with terrorists than simply sending a load of cruise missiles then sitting back with your tv dinner and watching our'war'.....if England bombed belfast would America be in support of us??....i think not....please try and balance the events on a global scale and draw a balanced conclusion rather than following the words of a madman-and i'm not talking about bin-ladin-im talking about your leader..........lee griffiths uk

War against terrorism is like petrol against fire!

DuBord and Baudrillard knew

  I  don't think we should bomb. I also don't think we should try and reconstruct Afghanistan's government. What ever happened to "By the people for the people" That's what those people want. They should just leave us alone, and hopefully we can do the same! Marvin Cotton, 19 Miami, FL marvercrombie@excite.com

Terrorism will be there till the time the human race does not learn to be satisfied.

I am from sweden and a love y but a dont like it ider but ma spelling is not okay

To the commenter who said 'that's what those people want' ... bull! The Taliban are a rich, bully minority keeping the Afghan people -- especially women -- in the slave mode. There ARE times when violence is necessary to make way for peace.

Peace will not come until we all want it.

You have to work toward making peace as hard as you have to work towards making war.

they are going to destroy all of us that is there plan. so why should we be soft on them? Hit them where it hurts. or else yours and mine and every one elses freedom will be lost forever.

The layers of issues and concerns stack high, run deep but from one perspective, increasingly the conflicts and ongoings of the world seem to be driven by economic concerns sadly. They are killing people. Everyone.

My seven year old suggested dropping shipments of bubble gum to the Taliban. He said, "They'll blow bubbles, get them stuck in their beards, and have to cut them off. Then they'll go to their own jail!"

The mind of man is magnificent. Whatever he dwells on, he makes more of. If you want to create more peace, you have to give it more thought and action. Only more peace creates more peace.

Personally I'm afraid to be living in a world where there are people who kill people who kill people without seeing what's wrong with it. Don't ever speak of war as something that has got to be done, because then people will keep dying in vain, forever, and that's really dumb.

one man's collateral damage is another's terrorism

what goes around, comes around!...you better believe it...

Um, no, you just don't do things like that

While I don't believe in that violence solves anything, there does come atime when u have to defend yourself & this is one of those times. It will NOT rid the woeld of terrorism, BUT, it will show terrorists that America will NOT let anyone get away with attacking us. We r all different & we don'tall think the same, when we all realise this, maybe, just maybe while this Earth is here we will be able to learn to tolerate each other better and minimize violence.

As John said "violence begets violence". I'd rather we solve this problem with terrorism in some matter that won't provoke more terrorism

Bombing an impoverished country while refusing to present evidence as to who the culprits of the 09/11 tragedies are is in itself terrorism.

It's understandable that the USA wants to bring the terrorists to justice. I'm 100% behind that. But bombing a whole country to try to get to the terrorists seems crazy. There are Bin Laden trained terrorists in several countries, including the USA...and we certainly aren't going to bomb ourselves. Or England. Or Germany. Or Canada. We need to use intelligence to find these people..not bombs.

we need an amnesty on terrorism, not reckless killing - whatever the crime.

the world is governed by the international,military,industrial complex which knows no boundaries and is based on dinosaur mentality greed. Perhaps September 11th will ingender the realization that we are all one people traveling through space on this blue spacecraft earth and will bring the awareness that mankind should focus its entire attention on saving our home planet and living in brotherhood, The politicalization brought by messengers of that which is ineffable, lead to "holy wars"...from Canaan to Christianity, to the situation that still exists in Ireland and Palestine. Bombing will not obliterate the threat of terrorism, nor abolish it, There are cells existant through the world. We must find the crazed fanatics and teach their devotees to change their consciousness and realize that all men are one,,,, Dona Sadock

War is always war there are not good or bad bombs!a bomb is a bomb, and a child that die for a war is always a life that someone has stole ...make love not war!!!-none-

ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE!!!-N-

Regardless of all the silly comments about peace and love and all that mush that John and Yoko held dear in their early days... Yoko Ono has established the REALITY on her marvelous new album Blueprint for a Sunrise. I agree one hundred percent with her analysis: It's Time For Action! THERE'S NO OPTION Get a life! Stay Alive! Everyday In every way... Bin Laden would just assume kill all of you silly people who just remain in serious denial about what needs to be done NOW! As my spiritual guru Yoko expressed in her album It's Alright, WAKE UP.

protect one another

You cant fight hate with hate. We are not after Afghanistan, we are after terrorism, so bombing Afghanistan will not help to end terrorism.

I think we have to go and defend ourselves and the reason we did it was because the people there were trying to cover for them/him. As a Christian I am torn because of lives being lost but even in the Bible it says there is a time for love and a time for war. This helped me alot!!!

Life is a game. Let us not be scared of playing it, because some other people feel that they are losing their game and do not want us to play.

John Lennonīs songs are more relevant now than they ever were.

Money should be spent in education to both partys, muslims and the western culture, to put those different parts of the world near each other, by inform people how things work, instead of spend them in bombs and building up anger. Those who call themselfs leaders of the so called better part of the world (USA, Britian and others) should put their thoughts into something more possitive, because you only get more violence out of violence. "This is not here"æ

Violence is NEVER the answer.

not a fair ?

Hope, hope,hope for peace. Who has seen the wind? I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round

energy & money should be spent in signing a real strong peace agreement between Palestinians and Israelians.

Bombing shows we will respond an not continue to be sitting targets AND perhaps rid the world of a few terrorists and their machinations for making war.
