Too much to write about at one time so I'll just choose this. You
missed the whole point. They want to kill us because of things that
we've done. If I were an Iraqi boy and my parents died because of what
we've done to Iraq, I would certainly try to kill Americans to make up
for it. What we've done makes us less safe, not more safe. And it
wasn't done for any altruistic reason, it was done for profit.

I categorically reject your entire line of thinking on this issue. The
Iraqis were treated worse than cattle under Saddam and his tribal group and
they took it for decades without a peep. We Americans must appear like Santa
Claus to them.

The main thing that is wrong with American foreign policy is our bent for
wanting to do good in the world. I would go for just doing what is good for
us and everyone else be damned. What I fear is that Iraq may want us to stay
in their god forsaken country forever and then clamor to become our 51st
State.

Liberals like you do not have a clue about how the world works.
