Bed time. Had hot chocolate. Still more scared now than I was yesterday.

Mr Bush, sir? Don't do anything rash? Please?

Good night, everyone. I love you all.

Sadly, I think he's going to do something. All this talk of hunting down the people and the place that's harboring them and punishing them. I don't want to have him hurt innocent people... that'll be just as bad as what the terrorists did to us.

I agree. I hope that no one does anything out of revenge. Love to everyone, jx

One opinion here: I was born into the Cold War and remember it quite distinctly (I'm 31), and the huge changes in foreign policy--and the confusion, and the missteps--that happened when it ended. I think we are in fact headed for another war, not a "hot" war of drafts and troop movements but a second cold war of increased espionage, the old containment doctrines dusted off and pressed back into service, 95% of what happens happening behind closed doors before we actually know it's being implemented as policy. And it will be a "war" lasting not weeks or months, but just like Cold War I, decades.

I'd really prefer to be wrong about that. But on the off chance I'm not: Fasten your seatbelts, all you kids who have no memory of that mentality, 'cause it's gonna be a bumpy ride.
