Dear Editor:Now that America is at war with Iraq, the director of Homeland Security states that eventually, retaliation known as “terrorism” is evident to happen. It is just a matter of time, but when retaliation starts, it will not be the fault of the President because the terrorists were here already. They are the ones doing it. They did not know who was going to be the President. Neither did the voters. Remember The Towers? Thousands of people died and this was a direct attack on America. The world has changed. Nothing stays the same. Time goes on.

People have stated that America is not an aggressive country, but there have been times that America has been aggressive before. For your information, the UN was against the war in Kosovo, but former President Clinton ignored the UN and sent military troops there who remain. But we do not hear much about this. War is war. People are people. Former President Roosevelt was involved in sending troops to the Caribbean Islands to liberate the Islands from Spanish control and America did not become imperialistic because the Caribbean Islands have their own governments. That America has Spain as one of its allies shows how countries that have fought in the past can get along in the future.
