There would be no war, no world hunger, no life taking diseases. Think about waking up and not having to worry about a single thing. Now imagine the total opposite. Living in fear from nuclear warfare, Terrorism, and invasions from other countries. Our lifestyles could mirror this if we do not handle this "Attack on America" properly. We as a country must think of the consequences of our actions well in advance before jumping into battle against the Middle East. .
With our country's emotions running sky high it is very easy for us to wish for a military attack as soon as possible. This sounds sweet and pretty on paper but in reality there is much more we must think about. Invading Afghanistan right now may cause deadly results without the proper research. Bordering countries like Iraq, Iran, and Syria will also be a threat. There are still many of Bin Laden's men in the U.S. and they are very dangerous. We must first investigate further into the terrorist acts and seek out rest of Bin Laden's henchmen. If we attack Afghanistan right now, Bin Laden can easily have his men who are living in our country strike again. Once we know the actual location of Mr. Bin Laden, then and only then should we strike.

This attack was planned to almost perfection and required lots of money. I"m sure there government helped fund this and many other terrorist acts. These countries are our enemies and we should no longer refrain from punishing them.
Our allies will play a significant role in winning this war. Help from Russia and Pakistan will play a key role in our victory. They are in attacking distance could easily aid us in time of need.
