That story has been reported here too. guardian.co.uk Its easy to allocate blame but much harder to accept responsibility. abcnews.go.com As member of the Democratic party & the Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid should be bearing some responsibility for some wars we have been having that I personally think have been unnecessary. He should own up to that and do something about it. Our lot too. Afghanistan was forgivable at the beginning but then we should have pulled out, why the Vietnam style occupation after the successful invasion? My current view is that we have been looking in the wrong country for the terrorists that caused 911. Just think about it, these supposed muslim terrorists can organise and fly a sophisticated passenger airliner into the Pentagon (an outstanding feat even to any skilled military pilot) but still cant kill Salmon Rushtie? His fourth novel, The Satanic Verses (1988), was the centre of a major controversy, provoking protests from Muslims in several countries, some violent. Death threats were made against him, including a fatwa issued by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the Supreme Leader of Iran, on 14 February 1989. en.wikipedia.org Excuse me, does any one still believe the current cock and bull 911 story??? Iraq. WTF was that (still is) about ? We dont need a continuous war to buy oil from Iraq, and just simply buying the oil would be a much cheaper way of doing things. and Libya plus the Arab spring, Mali... why are our countries so hell bent on screwing up every time they put thier paws into something? If we are going to fight wars, its important we have a plan first then go and fight to win. We have a technological edge and that plus knowing what your doing should be all that is necessary. Afghanistan was a winner after the invasion, we already had Vietnam and the Russian experience in Afghanistan to know what to do next.. GTF out. Everyone knew this so there are no excuses imho. So Reid et all, and especially all the politicians in the UK have a lot of blood on their hands. They have caused untold misery and discomfort and its high time they should own up to their mishap and do something about it. If Guidio Fawkes had lived a century or so later, when he got caught, he just to do an "Oliver Cromwell" and say "god told me to do it". This is a righteous judgement of God upon these barbarous wretches, who have imbrued their hands in so much innocent blood. en.wikiquote.org Who knows, he might of got away with it.
