Missile strikes against Afghanistan
I have to say I do have my doubts about the credibility of the government's claims of "convincing information" about the Sudan and Afghanistan missile targets. What can you believe when the Sudan government itself is calling for U.N. inspectors to search the destroyed chemical factory and discover if Clinton's claims are true?

And was it appropriate for the United States to conduct an overt military strike against sites in countries without open hostilities towards America? Not that I don't support military action against terrorist organizations, because I do. But what would happen if Iran launched missiles at a target on U.S. soil that it claimed housed terrorists against their nation? Was a covert special ops force out of the question? The biggest question is this: what consequences will Clinton's actions bring about? Increased terrorist activities against Americans? More bombings on U.S. soil? The possibility of nuclear retaliation in an American city? The thought is truly frightening to think about.
