the IRA never attacked the US because of our alliance with England
I think allowing OBL to get away with that weak justification for 911 is intellectually lazy at best
No but they sure did drop bombs and rained bullets on our boys on the USS Liberty in 1967
are we really going to take the word of a mouthpiece for the Iranian Mullahs?
not that this wouldn't surprise me
But we never messed around with Ireland. When it comes to Israel, we are a very active ally. We're all over the ME, and have been for 50 years.
I don't consider it to be a justification for OBL. I consider it to be information essential to selecting the most beneficial foreign policy for the future.
why single out the US then? Every western power has been meddling in the Middle East, some for centuries
We aren't the only western country who has been attacked by terrorists. We do get singled out and it's because we are much more actively threatening their sovereignty than anybody else. Our CIA created a coup in Iran 50 years ago, and we've been doing similar stuff ever since. Iran hated the leader we installed, and he was in power like 20 years. Not surprisingly, they blame us.
