We/they should be as we have just as much at stake. However, our socialist do-nothing government has always preferred to let the US do the heavy lifting. Ever since the great Trudeau became PM.
IMO, the comparison of the Al Qaeda pieces of filth to the founding fathers of America is nothing but pure hatred on the part of simple-minded anti-war, anti-Bush leftists.
How soon these leftists forget the Declaration of Independence. How soon they forget the Continental Congress and the Continental Army. The same Continental Army that wore uniforms and did not hide behind women and children. Nor did they attack civilians.
Just because they used covert tactics does not make them terrorists. Heck, the US military, and every military on the planet uses covert operations. How about the Navy Seals, or the Army Rangers?
