A Response

In response to the action of U.S. troops last night, I borrow words from a man I dearly admire and respect:

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" -- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
