No you didn't.

As for "follow the links", there are none in a direct line backwards in this conversation, until you reach a link by Koan on a different subject. And any links would be someone else making an argument. And from the links I've seen from you, not much of an argument.

The one remotely relevant link which you did post in response to me was a link to your post which in turn linked to
current.com

The page at that link says that OBL said that "it has nothing to do with us being rich and free, and more to do with our military industrial complex abusing unconstitutional powers and liberal nation building and occupying"

Which is not even an attempt to argue that US foreign policy is crazy. And isn't an argument for anything else at all just an assertion by OBL. As for occupying, to the extent that happened it happened after 9/11. (And we were not really occupying powers in either Iraq or Afghanistan past the begining of those conflicts. They each had and still have their own sovereign government. So you have an assertion (not an argument) by OBL (not you), that's also clearly incorrect (perhaps not about the motives, but about the facts in claims behind the motives)
