in 1953. History matters, hatreds simmer and violence is all too often the result.
If you cannot see how US history, actually starting in 1948, has had an affect on terrorism today -- meaning 9/11 ("bin Laden determined to strike..."
and Boston and beyond -- then you're part of the problem. If you truly read what I wrote in its entirety, I pointed out how coups, invasions and now drones are all part of the behavior of the US against others.
It is knowledge of history and perspective that will easily connect dots for you:
1948
1953
1967
1991
2003
They are all connected and 9/11 as well Boston are forms of blowback.
Don't get me wrong, I have no sympathy with the terrorists and my heart goes out to the victims. But I can understand how those innocents who have been systematically terrorized by US action(s) would want revenge. And yes, the US history of violence begets violence which is what we have seen in recent events.
