Who has taken direct action against the u.s.?
Which country in the ME?
How many countries have WE taken direct action against in the ME?
What were the reasons?
Are we "winning" the "war on terrorism" by killing people in the ME?
How can you know who are "terrorists" and who aren't? Because the gov't told you so? LMAO...
How long until the "war on terrorism" is over? How many "terrorists" are left in the ME?
After we kill all of them there , should we move on to asia and kill all the "terrorists" there, too?
Let's just invade every country in the world who doesn't like us and who MIGHT have some "terrorists" in them...what say?
What? A president who vowed to "bring the perpetrators to justice" and then was either unwilling or unable to do so?
A president angry over an attack that he allowed to happen?
A president not afraid to lie and bullshit in order to make himself look good?
Come on Jeff, this country hasn't had a REAL president in more than half a century.

It wasn't iraq, was it? Yet we invaded iraq on that flawed premise. We purposely destabilize the ME so we can continue to exert our "influence" there.
Do we need to review the history of us intervention and arming BOTH sides in wars in the ME?
In other words the question makes you uncomfortable because you know the answer but don't want to have to admit it and rather than provide a meaningful answer you resort to smilies...Got it.
I didn't say it was Iraq and we didn't invade Iraq on the premise that OBL was hanging out there and that the Taliban were harboring a wanted man. Besides, I know fairly well of our history and I already agreed that it was/is pretty much crap.

No, in other words the question is irrelevant to the issue of "those who brought these buildings down..." But I will offer my apologies for being the only one to resort to smilies...
Oh wait.

Iraq was part of the "axis of evil" according to bush and they were being blamed for having connections to Al qaeda and bin laden. That is why we attacked after 9/11. No one said bin laden lived there...you exaggerate quite a bit, quite often, I see.
According to bush the coalition mission was "to disarm Iraq of weapons of mass destruction, to end Saddam Hussein's support for terrorism, and to free the Iraqi people."
When they were found to have no connections to the taliban or al qaeda the mission shifted to "WMD"...after none were found the mission became "regime change" to bring "democracy" to iraq (at gunpoint).
My point illustrates the continuously variable excuses/rationalizations for purposely keeping the ME unstable so we can exert our influence.
So in the effort to curtail WMD and to "degrade" a rogue nation's capabilities to use them, when do you think we should attack N. Korea?
How about israel? When should we attack them?
What other nations do you think we should attack?
Weak deflection. I used smilies in ADDITION to a response...You use them INSTEAD of responding...subtle difference there, son...Nice try, though.

Miss Gabby he was far from perfect but he wasn't as bad as you make him out he didn't lie to congress he gave them the same facts he was given and yes people love to say how he went all on his own but the same people screaming that voted to go then screamed how bad it was then when Obama wanted to attack Syria then they where on board again, it is a game played between the two parties and the American people lose.
Never look down on someone unless you are helping them up
That's a great and wonderful line of reasoning to go down to not answer the question. You have quite the active imagination of where I stand.
Unfortunately when your posts, arguing against your imagination for example, are not worthy of actual words; smilies do the trick.
