Quote:Our reaction to 9/11 still infuriates me.  That so many went along so willingly is the scary part.  9/11 was carried out by Saudis and people from Yemen trained by Al Qaeda in Afghanistan, yet we try to colonize Iraq.  You wanna talk about waste, look at the billion dollar embassy we built in Baghdad, by far our most expensive, which could be overrun if ISIS keeps on their pace.  To speak out against that war meant you were "unpatriotic."  I hate that we sent soldiers to fight that farce of a war.

 

You do understand that Iraq was really about violating UN sanctions, and had nothing to do with 9/11, right? 

 

I thought it was idiotic to say it was unpatriotic to speak out against that war, but the same people who felt unfairly targeted for doing so then are the very ones who call anyone who opposes the comical foreign policies of the current administration unpatriotic, or worse, racists, for voicing opposition to dear ruler's mismanagement.
