Have you given any thought to how many trillions of dollars were spent in the cold war in order to get that Berlin Wall to fall?

How about all the lives lost behind the scenes of the cold war or the enemies we created to fight the USSR in Afghanistan?

The Islamofascists do not want to destroy us because of what we have done only because of who we are.

You might want to think how peaceful the world was in the 1950's etc. Peace was not so kind for all the dictators we have sponsored just because they aligned with us instead of the USSR. Think about Iran, Iraq, Philippines, etc.

Most educated Middle Easterners? Give me a break how the hell would you know. Who do you think is supporting all these terrorists so that these educated people can remain in their power structure?

We have been in the middle easterners affairs for the last 100 years, the only hope of exiting without chaos happens when we leave representative democracy behind.
