Re: "Sorry.....your "terrorist" tag on the US does not stick...." >>> Sorry, Ace, I never stuck a 'terrorist tag' on the US. >>> I merely pointed out the objective fact that the US and the Saudis financed, armed, and trained the Afghan 'freedom fighters' (which certainly included bin Laden, and many other laterday al Qaeda members). >>> This was in response to your over-heated generalizations about the size and successes of Iraq's attempts at terrorism... and your ignoring of the secular/fundamentalist divide that has kept the two camps - mostly - apart. >>> (But, if I had wanted to give further examples of instances where the US had knowingly supported terrorists - after all, one man's terrorist is another man's 'freedom fighter' - I would have called your attention to support for the Contra's mining of harbors and car bombings... or pointed to other periods in history. And, as I DID point out, only three weeks ago we signed a ceasefire with a terrorist group because their target - Iran - in not our friend.) >>> You would have to search far and wide to find a country who's hands are totally clean....
