I do not know Mr. Ron Paul, but was stunned May 17 to read on Page 1A, that in his opinion, the terrorists are upset because we invaded their land.

My goodness, how soon some people forget. They invaded us, Mr. Paul, do you not remember the first World Trade Center attack or Sept. 11?

Or, perhaps, you have forgotten the attack on the USS Stark, and the attack on the USS Cole. I would like to believe you are a sincere person, please show respect to all who have given both you and I the right to speak our minds.

It seems to me that you have diminished the sacrifice that so many have made, so that we all may live and prosper.
