Have you seen the footage from desert storm of the phone companys getting taken down with laser guided bombs? Who works at the phone company?
Who works at the pharmicutical factory in sudan or where ever?
They targeted the Pentagon and the White house.
The trade center attacks were formulated to inflict maximum civilian casualitys which is a big difference from current US military stratagies I grant, but you know that civilian casualties will be accepted in any US military action. Yes they honestly seem to minimize those casualtyies. They even degrade thier military capability in pursuit of minimizing enemy civilian casualties while the terrorists attempt to maximise civilian casualties even amongst thier allies...
there are huge differences between the two sides of course. That is why the US has many many allies in the war on terror. But civilians dieing doesnt constitute the litnus test of good vs evil.
Not to a Canadian apparently, one big difference you guys
seem to miss is that Saddam attacked Kuwait first. Then Bin
Laden attacked the US first. Then the US gave the opposition
many many months to cooperate before attacking, plus warning
of what was to come.
Of course these little factoids mean nothing to you because
your hatred blinds you to the "other" side as surely as you
claim ours does for us. I still haven't heard what horrible thing
the US has ever done to the muslim middle east to "deserve"
their hatred. I guess buying oil and supporting Israel is akin
to pitchforking babies?
