Being an idiot and being insane are two different things.
Your title of this thread said he was insane. You have given
no proof or even viable dialog to back up that claim.
Also - your 'I don't care what anyone else thinks' has no
place on this site. If you don't care what anyone thinks
then go pontificate somewheres else.

US has managed to kill way more people than died
in the towers bombing.

So what? That's the point of war. Kill the bad guys in greater
numbers than they have killed your own. Make it hurt THEM
so badly that they won't ever be able to hit you again. Anyone
who talks 'measured response' is just inviting the terrorists
to continue to strike. 'Measured response' gives terrorists
hope of committing more murders. 'Hit 'em hard' kills terrorists
and makes it very difficult for them to murder more people.

In a world that screams we want peace why did
this war happen?

#1 - The world IS NOT screaming for peace. The radical muslims
don't want peace with the West. The appeasers in Europe don't
want peace, they want appeasement which is different from
peace. That mentality is - 'I'll give you hoods what ever you want,
even if it means our downfall, just make sure to kill us last!'.
And frankly, the Palestinians don't want peace. Arafat had a
real opportunity for peace with Clintons Camp David Accords but
he turned it down. Why? Because peace would put the terrorist
overlords out of business. When September 11th happened the
Palestinians were literally dancing for joy in their streets and
having a party. Sick.
No. The world is not screaming for peace.
#2 - The war happened because those radical muslims (who are NOT
screaming for peace) have been attacking innocent people for many
years. They have declared anyone who doesn't worship God like them
to be infidels and not worthy of life. This includes the soverign
country of Israel, along with any and all Christians, as well as any
moderate or liberal muslims who don't behave 'properly'.
Also - this war happened because Saddam was MASS MURDERING
Iraqis. He was causing wars with his neighbors that mass murdered
them as well. He mass tortured and mass raped. He is a meglomaniac.
The UN refused to do anything to save human lives because they
were too busy taking billions in $$$ in payoffs to look the other way.

Innocent men getting killed every day and I am
talking US soldiers ...

That's what happens in war. That is also what happens in
'peace' when terrorists murder people and nothing is done
about it. Sometimes the price of lasting peace is that of
heros giving their lives now so that in the long run the world
will be safer and better off.
The innocent US soldiers who volunteer to bring us that peace
are heros. They know the risk, but they also know the goal
and the are willing to risk all to bring it to us ... God bless 'em all!
