Fuck anonymity. We had it coming. We had it drilled into our minds that we would never have a major terrorist attack. Most of us americans are stupid, now were all pointing fingers and starting wars an whoever we blame.

I meant Americas isolationism at times and refusal to do anything until it directly affects the US heartland. Like the Kyoto thing. Doesnt matter until it affects DC.....
 
That and the foreign policy currently leaves a lot to be desired.

A lot of countries have less than stellar foreign policies (including certainly us). This does not mean they deserve an attack like the 9/11 attack. Terrorists are criminals. They attack us because we are a large, mostly rich nation, and they use us as a symbol for all the insults (real and imagined) and bad things that happen. They have a great anger, we are an easy target. I get angry allthe time, but I never think about killing thousands of people (well, one at a time, maybe).
 
I think that 9/11 should never have happened but things had got too lax on the security front over there. Without sounding horrible and nasty to the people affected by 9/11 I think that it is a good thing that it happened as it has been a wakeup call for the government and they have tightened things up after that. There was no need to go picking fights with the rest of the world over it though.
 
we need a clap smiley

Chic what I meant was the way that things have been handled in the middle east. Especially Israel. and dont kid yourself about the economic side its all about religion. Do you not remember Osama bin Ladens ultimatum?

So Hex, which question are we supposed to answer?

"Did America have it coming?"

"Did America desrve what it got on 9/11?"


Those are two entirely different questions, and from my viewpoint at least require two entirely different answers. Sure, we had it coming... deserved or not.

I get so lost with what is what forum that I mainly use the ones hosted on my webspace then I have consistency. The only ones I can rely on working the same on each site are the ones that are the basic ones like : ) and ; ) and : ( after that they all go wonky on the different sites as they all have different coding for them so they never work for me.

At this moment in time I'm only signed into 2. Last night I was signed into 5 + my own forums.

I can be signed into upto 12 at any one time.

And I am always on the lookout for new ones.
 
I have the same user name on all but one as well.

Makes life easier for me to remember whoI am.

At one point I had 6 user names on one site though so that got confusing.

Then we kill you.

Did we deserve it? No

Did we have it coming? more on that when I have more time.
 
I don't think we deserved 9/11. It just showed how easy it was to board a plane with weapons. They did it because they could and knew they could. I honestly think the terorists did it to show how stupid America can be, but that still doesn't mean we deserved what happened
