1. The united states deserved what happened 9/11 2001?

   F–U–C–K YOU!

2. If you want to suck a mullah’s di*k please feel free. All our fault….your a MORON

3. I agree to an extent, no one deserves anyone killing them over a religion, but be prepared for a rash of responses that don’t with a lot of insults.

   Peace.

4. I was at 9/11, no one deserves that kind of hell.

5. This is the United States of America. The best country in the world to live in. If you don’t like it, get out.

6. The reality is that theres more than meets the eye here, people are being lied to by the govt.
   Theres more going on then what we think…

   For instance the plane in PA. was shot down by a military plane, a source on the inside told me so

7. You make some good points. However- terrorism is a poor response that is rarely (if ever) met by anything other than full scale military action. Revolution on the other hand has a much better track record. With the onset of globalization it is much more efficient and profitable to go through less violent channels.

   “There are no shortage of voices now saying the war in iraq was a mistake.”
   That doesn’t make them right.
   “Now that it is clear the reaction was wrong”
   Poor timing for the continuation of something we should have finished a decade ago.
   “The u.s. was never threatened by the middle east.”
   This statement is kinda inaccurate.
   “Israel should not top our news”
   agreed! but you can thank the media for that.

   TECHX69- if you’re going to debate with adults try acting like one. Changing your s/n would probably be a good start.

8. hmhmh i lost a relative and friends in 9/11 and i do no think any one should condone that???!!! however i agree with you , the USA needs to balance itself , before we have another terrorist attack…. I know that we got a taste of our own medicine with 9/11 yes we felt the pain that every mother and father feels in the middle east , i can not get the picture of Mohamed el dorra out of my mind …. But still we did not deserve this … we did not strike war on Palestine it was Israel .. but our support might have costed us thousands and thousands of Innocent souls in 9/11. I still do not know who did this 9/11 massacre, Arabs , Israelis, chines … my god we are surrounded by so many conspirators. And yes media is focused on israel and not other countries i agree and it is not fair

9. I respect your opinion, but…you’re wrong. Here’s why, and this is going to be a long one. Do you know when the war on terrorism should have started? How about a timeline?
   -November 1979: group of Iranian students attacked and seized the American Embassy in Tehran. Then-President Carter ordered a counter-attack which failed.
   -April 1983: a large vehicle packed with high explosives was driven into the US Embassy compound in Beirut. Upon explosion, it killed 63 people.
   -October 1983: a large truck heavily laden down with over 2500 pounds of TNT smashed through the main gate of the US Marine Corps headquarters in Beirut and 241 US servicemen were killed.
   -December 1983: another truck loaded with explosives was driven into the US Embassy in Kuwait.
   -September 1984: another van was driven into the gate of the US Embassy in Beirut.
   -April 1985: a bomb explodes in a restaurant frequented by US soldiers in Madrid
   -August 1985: a Volkswagen loaded with explosives is driven into the main gate of the US Air Force Base at Rhein-Main, 22 are killed
   -November 1985, a cruise ship, the Achille Lauro is hijacked; an American in a wheelchair is singled out of the passenger list and executed.
   -April 1986: Two civilian jetliners were bombed: TWA Flight 840 which killed 4 and
   -1988: Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, killing 259.
   -January 1993: two CIA agents are shot and killed as they enter CIA headquarters in Langley, Virginia.
   -February 1993: a group of terrorists are arrested after a rented van packed with explosives is driven into the underground parking garage of the World Trade Center in New York City. Six people are killed and over 1000 are injured.
   November 1995: a car bomb explodes at a US military complex in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia killing seven service men and women.
   -June of 1996: another truck bomb explodes only 35 yards from the US military compound in Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. It destroys the Khobar Towers, a US Air Force barracks, killing 19 and injuring over 500.
   -October 2000- The USS Cole is fired on while refueling near Yemen, which killed 17 servicemen.
   Then September 11th happened.
   Yes, war is horrible, and it’s sad. But think about what happened the last time a country dared attack us (Pearl Harbor): We dropped a nuke on them! Nothing we could do to Iraq or Afghanistan could be as bad as that. Not only that, but our war was never with the Afghanis, or the Iraqis.
   With that timeline, do you HONESTLY still think this is about OIL?!
   As for your second question, yes and no. What’s going on in Israel is the biggest thing going on in the world, besides the heat wave, the North Korea missile crisis, and the Iran nuclear technology crisis. We’re fighting man AND nature right now, and so is everyone else.

10. Dude, no matter what side of the aisle we’re on, we can all agree as Americans on one thing: The people inside the Pentagon, the Trade Center Towers, and those planes did NOT deserve their fate. The terrorists were retaliating against a governmental ideal and decided to kill innocent people because of it. The civilians had nothing to do with what the hijackers were fighting agaist. So no, we didn’t deserve what happened to us. And the media is doing it’s job by reporting the news about Israel. So no they shouldn’t limit their coverage.

11. The news on Israel as with anywhere should be balanced.

    We all know something is not quite right. The dice are loaded, the game is fixed.

    We with our growing advancements in technology & science should not have petty things like violent wars to distract us from doing the lofty things.

    Common Citizens are expendable, cannon fodder,a buffer zone for commercial concerns that run a nation, ANY nation that has a war. The little children of today and possibly their children are the cannon fodder of tomorrow.

    In combat the chances a common citizen fighting next to a judge, lawyer, politician, or corporate executive is nonexistant. Somehow their patriotism does not extend to going to the fight. These individuals have the most material to gain or lose in war, yet manage never to volunteer for the frontlines. The judge & lawyer, have relatively extensive knowledge of the constitution, the polititian takes an oath to uphold and defend the constitution. Somehow one does not see these individuals volunteering for the frontlines. The individuals with the most knowledge, most affection, and those who have the most material to gain from a war, are all too willing to send others to be low paid hit-men.

    If one truly Loves something one will fight for it, regardless of the odds.

    Going to Afganistan and Iraq was like shooting the cow because the mule kicked you. It is a good thing that it was not rumoured that Mr. Laden was hiding in Wisconson. Oh the horror! What am I talking about? Oh the Cheese!!

    Pres. Eisenhauer upon exiting his office warned of the growth Military-Industrial Complex. The symbology of the complex was attacked 11-Sept-2001. Not the statue of Liberty! This could make the list of suspects very long.

    The USA contains near 1/8 of the world population, yet consumes near 80% of the planets resources. Its number 1 export is garbage. Garbage which is buried in impovershed countries, which for some reason have these strange disease problems. When I say garbage, this includes industrial waste, hospital garbage, syringes and other bio-haza rds.

    Assinations of governmental officials of other nations, planned overthrow, ruining business of competing commercal interest, manipulation of markets, interference with policies because their commercial interest have been compromised, and bullying are just a few reasons why the attack tragedy could occur.
    The common citizen has been the most generous philantropist in any country, especially in the USA. He has also been the most gullible. He sacrifices his family, health, home, personal advancement, Life, Liberty, & Pursuit of Happiness for confidence men. Con men with large mechantile interest convinces him to enslave his body, mind & soul to protect their interest. The common citizen is much like the house slave described by Malik al Shabazz al Haj “who says massah we sick.”

    Common citizens have been distracted into an ignorance that prevents them from reading into, and analyzing world history and the patterns that shape events. These patterns are not by mistake. Common citizens are distracted by being separated by religion, arbitrary definitions of race, ethinicty, culture & economic class.They have forgotten the saying “divide & conquer. Historically they have been divided & conquered. They do not consider commercial interest.

    Commercial interest is what has made USA great. Commercial interest caused the 13 colonies to expand to the 50 colonies by using genocied on the native population while stealing the land and remanding them to land areas less thatn the original 13 states. Commercial interest continued intentionally its inheiritance of slavery, which had a genocidal component included. Commercial intersest that is the super-rich are the smallest minority in the world & in any country. Citizenship means nothing to those who can afford to buy it.

    Commercial interest are run by a pirate brat-like mentality. A brat must have now, his way, at whatever his whim might be at the time, or else a temper tantrum will occur. Temper tantrums with weapons that will destroy common citizens and their libeties.

    Kim IL Sun said nothing that USA history does not corroborate. It is a nation much like other great nations throughout history a “gangstas paradise.” England was finally conquered by a gangster from France (Normandy) named William the conquerer. His progenny has been conquerring eversince. Its subjects, not the common citizens, but the commercial interest of the time caused a rebellion which gave them control of 13 colonies, which became overtime 50 states and possessions from “gangsta action,” including but not limitted to buying stolen prooperty, mass murder, child abuse, spouse abuse, lying & &cheating. Where is this guy going child & spousal abuse is quite a stretch? If a people are dominated especially where slavery is concerned, then any notion including these abuses are obtainable. This is the part of moral fiber that is not analyzed even by most historians, philosophers, psychiatrist & psychologist. Thinking about these types of issues seems to make some peoples heads hurt. The Common citizen is condition NOT to think for himself. Their thinking is fashioned, manipulated, and conditioned. There are people who have employment to control how you think, or process thought.

    Common sense is not being employed by the Common citizen. The common citizen does not ask the proper answer, therefore cannot obtain the proper answer. There is an arrogance of ignorance among their ranks. The common citizen does not look inward as much as he should. They distracted by non-issues at the expense of real issues.

    If the nations nearest Iraq had no problems with it, then why did a nation a half a world away have a problem with them? Why go bomb a nation with innocent civilians to get one man? Why lie about WMD and spill the blood of common citizens and other innocents ruining their lives as well as their ability to contribute to to the greater good? We tell our children to not be led into fights by others, why is not the same value applied to the “grown children,” who have commercial interest?

    We tell children not to lie because a liar, will cheat, steal or kill and lie about it. Some children who did not take such vaules seriously, become adults.

    There is also a distinct possibility that the attack of “911” was born in the USA. Remember money talks, anyone from anywhere can be hired to do something and a double-cross changes the outcome he expected. Remember that Winston Churchill sacrificed near 50,000 of his citizens to bombing, supposedly for tactical and strategic advantage.

    It is unknowned to this writer who is responsible for the “911” trajedys. Investigation & analysis are necessary. Any good detective will tell you, when dealing with mentalities of criminal gangster types, it is always wise to follow the money.

    Example: The much gold mined the Americas starting 500 years ago is in Great Britain and the Vatican.

    The common citizen must free his thinking by developing himself. He must purge himself of the mental slavery that he has inheirited from his forebearers and will pass to his decendents. This is important because the common citizen if not purged will replicate the mistakes of past tyrrants. Remember the Britts were once slaves. They have a song indicating this:

    Rule Britannia, Britainia rule the waves,
    We shall never, never, never again be slaves.

    The sun does not set on the commercial interest of this empire.
    There is no good in being liberated if oppression of others is in the works.

    Common citizens needs to analyze everything taught or told them in areas that affect their thinking and morals. This includes especially religion, history,& philosophy because these setup the mental construct for thought processing. It is foolish to think that colonizers(commercial intersest) with dubious motives will educate the common citizen. The common citizen is the competiton of commercial interest. The errosion of the most powerful entity on the planet is taking at the behest of commercial interest. That most powerful entity is the family. Families, make communities, make societies and individuals make up families. The individuals must take this charge seriously. Remember particularly in the USA the 2 official documents and the 1 unofficial speech that state whom the government really is supposed to be…The PEOPLE. The government administrators are like maids,butlers, and chaufers; servants, public servants, but just servants none the less.

    “You do not always get what you pay for, but you always pay for what you get.”

    What we Demonstrate in our everyday behaviour defines our moral code. Not what we say but what we do. Talk is the cheapest thing anyone can do. We must take the responsibility. It is crazy to let crazy people ruin your life.
