Analyst's note:  American families are extremely "incensed, distraught and furious" at the murders of American citizens on 9-11 and now the murders of our Warriors in Afghanistan "safe places." ... I'm just saying.  This doesn't make the latest rogue event right (if the story is being properly reported by someone other than the Taliban), but it certainly impacts how we Americans feel.  Lets get on with the necessary part of the war and then bring our troops home ... getting them out of this 14th century time warp.  We are NOT going to democratize them now or after the war, so lets get on with bringing the Taliban & their supporters to justice & come on back home. 

In short; we are not impressed by the temporary manifestations of good sense and fair play which occasions the airways in our society.  We want to see a society once again display intolerance for unethical, immoral, undisciplined, corrupt and unimaginative behavior in our 'leaders'. Then our Warrior community and our population will be secure and we may really have a sense of hope that we have 'almost' turned a corner.  BTW, we don't and will NOT buyin to any justice by sharia law.
