It's never been about the U.S. with bin Laden. It's always been about Palestinians and getting the Jews out of there.

""Palestine cannot be retaken by negotiations and dialogue, but with fire and iron," he said."

Then he urges the Palestinians to come join the fight in Iraq:

"Bin Laden added that Palestinians who are unable to fight in the "land of Al-Quds" — a Muslim reference to Jerusalem — should join the al-Qaida fight in Iraq.

"The nearest field of jihad today to support our people in Palestine is the Iraqi field," he said."

"Palestine will not return to us with the negotiations by the submissive rulers, their conferences, nor by demonstrations and elections," bin Laden said. "Palestine will come back to us if we awaken from our ignorance and adhere to our religion and sacrifice our lives and means to it."

It's always been about the Palestine issue and getting those nasty Jews out of the Middle East!!

I really wish you'd stop lying. I blame the U.S. government. The government and the country are not the same thing. Now please stop lying.


No, I'm merely adding further specifications because you are trying to weasel out of your position. You were the one pretending that France wasn't obligated by alliance to attack anyone who attacks the U.S., and vice versa.

The U.S. government did indeed fund Bin Laden and turned him into what he is today.



Yes, it is something a wise person can foresee. You will lay no blame at the feet of the U.S. government for ANYTHING. You would absolve them of everything and hold them responsible for NOTHING. One can look at Switzerland's foreign policy and see that Switzerland does not go around creating enemies that come back to attack them. It's not rocket science, but it does require one being intellectually honest.

The Soviets never could have afforded to hold the country anyway - just as we cannot afford to hold Iraq - and we are far richer than the Soviets ever were.

No, I didn't support his actions. Because he kept funding dictators and regimes in the Middle East that oppressed their people, like the Saudis. He kept giving weapons and money to other countries, and he kept troops in the Middle East. Bin Laden cited all of these things as reasons required for his jihad.

Again, with your Straw Men. No, this group would have to be composed of an EQUAL number of troops from all countries, or it won't work. If the U.S. is overly involved in it, it will fail. It must be seen as a purely international force for international crime.


There won't be another attack if we completely leave the region and stop giving money to other governments there. They are attacking us precisely because of the reasons Bin Laden gave in his fatwa. No more, no less.

Now here's where you just trapped yourself. You want to accept a formal declaration of war from a non-nation state - yet you don't want to consider their offer of truce or the reasons they cited for the attack. I'd say this clearly makes you a disingenuous fraud concerned solely with getting revenge and fomenting as much hate and death against them as possible. You're a war cheerleader. You want to sit in stands waving your pom-poms shouting "kill! kill! kill!" "Slaughter them all!!! Rah, rah, rah!!!" "Go team go, bomb the women and children too if we have to!" "Their lives don't matter!!!" "Kill! kill! kill!"


ROTFL. The 9/11 commission was a complete and total fraud. They still refuse to answer over 70% of the questions posed to them by the surviving family members of those killed on 9/11. Some commission...

He and his terrorist organisation has already, amongst others, taken the freedom of 3000+ people on 9/11.

The aim of Al-Qaeda is to introduce fundemental Islamic States across the World by force if needs be.

The only reason for you not to be afraid is because the Bush administration has committed the US and supported by many allies to actively fighting against the Al-Qaeda terrorists anywhere they can be found.

But although I say you should not be afraid - you should remain concerned. You should support your Countries attempts to help protect us personally and the systems that we depend upon from the terrorist threats. Al-Qeada is currently on the run, but not yet defeated....
