Americans will never forget 9-11, it was the worst day in our lifetime and it also was a day that showed the best of America. We all lost our families that day because we immediately realized we are one huge American family.

Now, eight years later, we are doing what most families do. We disagee alot and sometimes when we are fighting we forget we are one family.  We all want to be safe, we don't want any of our children to die but we disagree on how to do that. After all, we teach our kids not to be bullys.  Well 9-11 wasn't just a small squrimish.  A small gang decided to show the world that they could take us down without weapons, they even used our planes. So, we went to war in two countries.  We have the best army in the world.  We have the best weapons.  Now over four thousand of our children have been killed and many more innocent people in the waring countries.  The weapon of choice of the enemy is car bombs. Why didn't we send a message to the world. Why did we not nuke the drug fields in Afganastan?

It would have stopped the source of money for our enemies, and most of the people who got killed would be the ones who grow the drugs. Innocent people died in the war are engaged in, but none of our children would have died. The message don't f--k wit America would be sent.  Then we could spend the money it cost for the war we are in to build the country, like we did in Japan.
