Even though a sneak attack, Pearl harbor was a military attack on a military target. Plus, the Japanese flew planes that could be clearly identified as if to say, "Yeah, it's us. we did this, here we are, now come and get us if you can!"


The ruse of people like khaday, the taliban, arafat and the Iranians to say "this is horrible" is just their way of trying to hide from the inevitable. We will extract revenge and most of the world will understand or at least tolerate it if some of the attacks are not so "surgical".
