World War I - a European aristocratic family squabble turned deadly.
World War II - started by a nutter who wanted Europe for his own nation and which provided other imperialist nations an opportunity for a similar economic land grab.
Korean War - still going.
Vietnam War - a complete balls-up.
Bay of Pigs Invasion - a smaller, but complete, balls-up.
Grenada (83) - LAPD SWAT have had bigger firefights.
Panama (89) - whatever happened to assassination to remove a recalcitrant former ally?
Persian Gulf War - you mean the effort to give Kuwait back to the incredibly wealthy family which annexed it from Iraq?
Afghanistan War - unnecessary, should have been a surgical strike and then out of there.
Iraq War - a diversion.

The theory is that 9/11 was a false flag operation. False flag operations are to give the people a reason they will accept for going to war as they would never accept the real reason. When the US goes to war, the reasons given to the people are never the real ones.[/The post a.k.a. what does this have to do with 9/11?]

The theory is that 9/11 was the latest false flag operations in a series that gives the US government a pretext to intervene abroad. This topic looks relevant to me.

Right. And how do you decide what the "real ones" are? I suspect there's a lot of this involved:

Was my post too subtle for you? The OP itself is not on topic. You should request it be moved to the appropriate forum.
