I feel the same way you do, Jill and find myself between shock, anger and grief. What you mention about the clips of the Palestinians dancing in the streets should not suprise you too much. They are convinced that the United States embodies nothing short of the "great satan". They feel our policies and ties to Israel are unfair and slanted to a Nation who hates them. Just like the Pharisees and Sadducees of old ( who nailed the Prince of Peace to a cross ), they think that by killing us they are doing a service to God.
The cowards who did this horrendous act need to be brought ot justice, swiftly and surely. I just hope we will do nothing before seeking the grace and wisdom of Almighty God before acting.
God Bless the United States of America!!!
