I think many Americans today don't quite understand the situation. Worrying about innocent civilians is admerable and very American. And as Americans we don't intentionally make war on civilians. However, in times of WAR civilians do catch hell and die. What happened today is an act of war. In war you try to destroy the enemy, but in every case(most likely especially this one) civilians are close to the bad guys though. And those in the middle east who celebrate today should consider the fact that before today the US was an ally of Israel, but were not the active enemy of palistilians. By their actions, they place themselves with our enemies. If they knew the history of our nation, they would know that can be bad for long-term health. As it stands, I believe we should make as sure as possible the culprits of this act. And then we will come down like an astroid on them. Those who are close should be advised.
