The Question of the Day at MSNBC is: “should the U.S. go after Osama bin Laden no matter what.” This is the Question of the Day on June 20, 2005.
We’ve invaded and overthrown the government of Afghanistan. We’ve invaded and overthrown the government of Iraq which, to my knowledge, hadn’t done anything to the U.S. since putting a missile into USS Stark. In an interview to be published in next Monday's Time the Director of the CIA is going to say that, although he has an “excellent idea” where the man who directed the attacks of 9/11/2001 is to be found, the “United States’ respect for sovereign nations” makes his capture more difficult. Since when?
Forty five months after 9/11, and we’re being asked if the U.S. should take all necessary steps to apprehend Osama bin Laden. Yeah… and I kind of wish we’d been doing that all along. There would at least have been some point to it all.
