    This isn't a right or wrong scenario.
    Yes it is. I'm right and you're wrong, it's as simple as that.
    It is the simple concept of 'do unto others as you would have them do unto you'.
    If you attack someone you can count on them attacking you back.
    So you'd approve of Iraq or Vietnam launching an attack on the USA?
    Holding said attack against them for whatever reason is just an exercise in hypocrisy.
    In some circumstances, not in others.
    O Lord our God, help us to tear their soldiers to bloody shreds with our shells; help us to cover their smiling fields with the pale forms of their patriot dead; help us to drown the thunder of the guns with the shrieks of their wounded, writhing in pain; help us to lay waste their humble homes with a hurricane of fire; help us to wring the hearts of their unoffending widows with unavailing grief; help us to turn them out roofless with little children to wander unfriended the wastes of their desolated land in rags and hunger and thirst, sports of the sun flames of summer and the icy winds of winter, broken in spirit, worn with travail, imploring Thee for the refuge of the grave and denied it--for our sakes who adore Thee, Lord, blast their hopes, blight their lives, protract their bitter pilgrimage, make heavy their steps, water their way with their tears, stain the white snow with the blood of their wounded feet! We ask it, in the spirit of love, of Him Who is the Source of Love, and Who is the ever-faithful refuge and friend of all that are sore beset and seek His aid with humble and contrite hearts. Amen.



    God being truth, justice, goodness, beauty, power, and life, man is falsehood, iniquity, evil, ugliness, impotence, and death. God being master, man is the slave. Incapable of finding justice, truth, and eternal life by his own effort, he can attain them only through a divine revelation... he who desires to worship God must harbor no childish illusions about the matter, but bravely renounce his liberty and humanity.

      Anyone can say that they have right of way. However, if you want anyone to respect that claim you need to specify why you are right and they are wrong.

        If I recall they already did attack the USA and the USA retaliated. As a result the attckers can't begin objecting to the USA's retaliation because they struck first which in turn caused said retaliation.
