I hope all who feel offended by my topic take the time to read through the whole PM I sent to Gregoshi, I tried to rephrase my initial thoughts in a more neutral way.
I have to stress that I did not have anything against Americans, but I rather wanted to state my critical opinion towards their goverment and see if others agree or have other, different thoughts. I did not want it to become a flame topic, I wished for a discussion.
I'm with Ar7. How many times do I have to mention that I don't in any awy support the killing of innocents. People have a warped view of the 9/11 attacks. It was an attack on the symbols of America not it's people(although admittedly they were on the way). Osama bin Laden couldn't care less about the people that were killed. The point was to humiliate the US government. Unfortunatly the same idiots got re elected so I guess it backfired on them.Perhaps when I used the word deserves I was wrong. I merely wanted to point out, that the US doesn't have the right to talk about freeing the world and blaming other countries for sponsoring terrorism, as they were infact the ones who created the threat that the world is facing today. Because most of the largest terrorist organisations are linked to Alkaida or Usama in one way or the other.
...we see a situation where the US continues to endanger its citizens and continues it's politics the same way they did thus creating more terrorism along the way...
I just wanted to point out that the US goverment is largely resposible for what is happening today and that these attacks should have changed their politics and thus the word "deserved" in the topic.
How can you have a warped view of 9/11 when you witnessed it, for the most part, first hand (I didn't witness the actual attack but I did witness the aftermath, clearing the 'for the most part' up)
Why do you hate Freedom?
The US is marching backward to the values of Michael Stivic.
You bring up a good point about about the time setting Redleg. We'll update the description.
I'll open a new topic to set a date: anything earlier than 1945, 1900, 1800? I can see the attempt to do plain history discussion, and anything that happened 1 second ago is history, but it often clashes too much with, shall we say emotions?
Thanks for clearing it up AR7.
