I said he paid families of suicide bombers. Am I wrong? You're not wrong. Just incomplete. He paid the families of Palestinians. The same as many Arab nations and wealthy individuals did. You label them as terrorists, the Palestinians, but they are not Al Qaeda terrorists. They are Palestinian freedom fighters from the point of view of Palestinians and much of the Arab world. Anyone that does not go along with aims of western hegemony is called a terrorist. The implications here are broad and unjust. Are you telling me that no injustices been done to the Palestinian people? Of course many injustices have been done now on both sides. But go back to the beginning...who caused harm first? Who was displaced to create a homeland for the Jews? Are these wrongs to be lost in the time of fading western memories? Or are they still fresh in the minds of people who were thrown off their land and have lost their freedom? Usually people of simple minds hang on to simple sound bites. That's why Rush Limbaugh can get away with trumpeting over and over how "Saddam supported the terrorists". Then by simple word association...the word terrorist...becomes the link to all that is evil. They are the evil doers that are responsible for 9-11. Such twisted logic is the stock and trade of the war mongers. Orca
