Well, at least you acknowledge Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein were our CIA operatives. Could you tell Jlallen? He seems to be having a hard time comprehending these facts.

What I don't understand is is when you say that "our past support of him twenty-some years ago is of no relevance to the decisions our leadership must make today."

I think it has a lot of relevance. It looks like our leaders don't make such good decisions. Maybe they should stop the dirty tricks the U.S. government plays all over the world that usually backfire on us. Maybe our leadership should decide that they are not that good at anything they try in the Arab world and back out, as gracefully as possible. Maybe our leadership should have decided to fight the good fight in Afghanistan until they actually found bin Laden. There certainly are some better decisions they could be making . . .
