I totally understand the sensitivity of the situation and would not want the elderly step father, mother, other family members to experience any more grief than they already have. However, not because of wanting to fan the flames of whatever as I am a Pacifist by nature........but my husband was saying we should CUT OFF ALL FIANANCIAL AID to these terrorists' home countries. When he told me the amount that we dole out to them, it blew my mind. I realize not all people are bad, however, I do believe in truth in journalism. I was just wondering if anyone else read what we read....or saw the photos. Many of the reporters seemed extremely somber, with good right to be. We have friends who are overseas in those countries right now. I'm at a scarcity of words here lest I get a second warning when I never ever posted anything at all in the "p" realm..........so you have to read between the lines. We are all horrified at what happened to our Americans abroad.
