so, with all due respect, its not sad. its a great thing that our citizens can live their lives normally.
I agree it is a good thing that our citizens can live a normal life. However, if and when the day comes, you'll see if this 'war' is truly supported or not by the masses. Sad in my post was more about the lessons of 9-11 that I believe have been long forgotten or never learned by too many.
