nothing radical about that, its about a two hundred year status quo in western history.

the american presence in iraq is based on the same delusional pretenses of spreading progress as the french and british presence in the ME as well as the far east, in some cases over a hundred years ago.

dream on luke.

to assume that no iraq or afgan war would have meant another attack, you would be lacking something called evidence.

to assume that the reason you are safe is because of good ole bush is a see what you wanna see thing. Truth is, more americans have died at the hands of radicals since 9-11 than during it, in the form of military personnel. You should thank them, not bush.
