Way OT:

Unk, you're being completely irrational and irresponsible. The Unabomber was a terrorist who killed innocent people because he was a luddite and he somehow believed that killing those innocent people would help free us from technology.

There are lots of luddites, but that does not make them "apologists for terrorism."

I think your mistake--and it's a very serious idealogical error--is confusing Ends with Means.

If you want the CIA to stop putting the likes of Hussein and Noriega and the Taliban in power, that's political position. It's an End. Terrorism is a military tactic. It's a Mean. The two are completely independent.

You have irresponsibly labeled Lars an "apologist for terrorism" because he stated the undeniable fact that lots of people hate America. You made yourself look foolishly intolerant in the process.
