Why? What the did the Afghans do to YOU? As sleemanj pointed out, living in Afghanistan is not pretty. The Taliban are an extremely militant group of folks who use twist religion against their own people.

Not to mention, did you consider that some of those folks may trace your IP address back and report you to your provider (depending on what exactly you said)?

Nobody yet is sure if bin-Laden is responsible for the latest terror, but it doesn't matter!
It certainly DOES matter. Take a look at what happened in Chicago last night. More anti-Arab rage that is senseless.

I'm all for kicking ass and taking names. I want to see those responsible punished severely. Admittedly, I waver between public execution/whatever it takes-style force and showing mercy where no mercy was shown. But we need to first:

--Know who was responsible
--Find out if a foreign state sponsored this

Pig-fuckers!
You're angry...you were concerned about friends of yours that may have been there. So taking your anger out on people that we have not confirmed to be responsible is justifiable? Hardly...
