Falwell is taking it from the left and the right. Also, I guess Ron Paul sealed any infinitesimal chance he had at winning the primary with that comment. Boy.

The ironic part is I just had an argument with one about the same subject earlier today that almost ended in a brawl. But that's what happens living close NYC.

I know three close friends who lost their fathers in the attacks, so maybe I just can't look at this objectively. All I know is that no one but the terrorists made up their minds to take innocent lives that day. I don't really care what we did over there. A war doesn't justify attacking civilians, especially under the concept of Jihad. The meaning of <a href="http://collegecritic.net/2007/04/25/the-misconceptual-jihad/" rel="nofollow">Jihad</a> is widely misunderstood. I just don’t see how you can blame anyone else for 9/11.

I'm a bit slow today. If not, pills are readily available. I checked out your blog after and realized I'm a moron. By the way, if that was sarcasm Kevin, disregard. I’m a bit slow today.

Do you really think that all of the hijackers suicide bombed NYC because of Osama's prostitution ring? Do you really think Osama would be so pissed off at America for ruining his whore business that he would make himself the world's biggest fugitive and the focus of a multi-country man hunt? The guy had a fortune, I hardly think that he would have missed a couple of cheap prostitutes. And why the Pentagon? Did he not like the shape? As for Mark, you beat me to the punch. Impressive knowledge. History is the key to understanding every event that occurs in this world. Action -> Reaction. Vicious cycle.

And some of the adults, too, maybe, who don't know any better. To me it's not much different than rescuing children from a mentally and emotionally abusive father. How can his (Phelps) beliefs become so twisted from what they're supposed to be? I feel like I should do some research on him to understand him better, but it feels like trying to do research on a years-old moldy corpse.

I have a printed copy. You obviously read the Cliff Note's version from the Washington Post. That is to say that your opinion has absolutely nothing to do with the truth. Bradford C.: The 1993 bombings were a direct result of a radical Jihad declared against the a "Paper Tiger's attempt at Globalization" --- straight from the mouth of the man responsible. Bin Laden's reasons were widely reported, and his personal interviews clearly blamed us *not* for attacking Iraq (who Bin Laden himself has stated that he despises because as a "false" religious state), but rather for the "the Jewish state" which he believes is a direct result of the United States. Like many zealots, he also clearly doesn't remember History, as it was the United Nations, not the United States, who created the Israeli state... He would've been closer if he's blamed the UK, who'd been subverting the region for hundreds of years... History rules. Buddyw:
