Searle, this the Islamic world hates US "...because we've been f'ing them over" for years argument is hogwash. The same groups that considered siding with Hitler until he started losing and later embargoed the world oilwise now are getting picked on by the US for years? I would say it was Europe who pushed the moslems around the most and drew all the stupid lines that led to wars throughout the ME. But they're not getting bombed much--are they? Now on the Israel score moslems are ticked, but they've had 3 decent chances to defeat a country hardly a few miles wide. They suck. They have no balls to win a fair fight and now they prefer bombing instead. You can postulate US gov involvement all you like in the 9-11, anthrax, and other puzzling cases, but the moslems are the ones who like to run around strapped with explosives all the time...they never stop...so now they get blamed for everything. Whose fault is that? This guy lost all his argument with his "f'ing" comment because it just makes him look like another political hack with a chip on his shoulder. I believe if this stuff is all part of a conspiracy, W is just a pawn--even the US gov. For W to come in and suddenly try to conquer the world and risk a meltdown of everything is absurd. No...he would have much rather preferred to come in and enjoy years of prosperity while sampling the concubine pool like Clinton did. So the real question should be...who wants the US taken out militarily/economically by making US look like a leper to the rest of the world?
