   I'm a long-time follower of Joan B. and I'm aware of her anti-war   
   stance on just about all levels, but I have to wonder how she feels   
   about a country that harbors the kinds of terrorists who could fly   
   planes loaded with innocent people into buildings with innocent   
   people.  I really don't know what she thinks about 9-11 and how it   
   should be dealt with.
