| I really, really hate to ask this: Which leader has killed more innocents? |

bush or osama.
Both have their justifications. Both want to stop the other one.
I don't think muslims in general hate us and want to kill us (some sure do), and I don't think the avg american wants to blow up families over yonder (though some sure do).
Yes, there are soldiers on both sides, who carry out the acts. But our focus has been on their leader. And we have killed many in that quest that had nothing to do with his works.
I deplore the attacks on our country on 9/11. And those in other countries. I don't have any love for the freaks that carried them out or were behind them.
But one does have to wonder at times, who has killed more innocents in this war between leaders?
There are two ways out of this. Come to a cease fire style agreement and work out issues in good faith - or keep killing.
Maybe it would be best if both countries' people put the leaders into a cage match on PPV.
Or how about THIS IDEA:
We take a huge section of land somewhere. And if you hate someone and they hate you, you and your teams can go there and battle it out. No civilians around, just the people who want to kill each other. A real war zone for those who want war, and leave the rest of us people the hell alone.
