". – I voted against the resolution for several reasons. I believe that bringing to justice those responsible for the terrorist attacks in the United States should not mean suffering and terror for other innocent people. It is vital that any action taken in response to these atrocities does not trigger more attacks like it or even worse. The international community has a duty to seek to understand what may have led to these terrible crimes. It must try to understand because to refuse to do so will contribute to the likelihood that much worse lies ahead.
I believe that the United States, and the coalition of countries that has been formed, must be sensitive to global security as a whole. If the US responds with attacks on Afghanistan it too will be killing innocent people and two wrongs never make a right. I strongly feel that we, as politicians in the democratic world, have a great responsibility to uphold the principles of non-violence and to ensure that such unjustifiable violence does not escalate."@en1
