One problem here---if I am reading the note correctly---the one from KatLaughing---I was not the one who wrote what is in parentheses.

That said---I have to say I jave top agree about the U S and Iraq. Not so with Israel---they were the ones attacked by the "state within the state" and that after leaving Gaza and getting attacked there as well.

They (Israel) are not creating more terrorists---they are there.   We, on the other hand, disturbed a balance in Iraq (an artificial nation created years back by the British). Sure, it was a horrible regime--so is Castro, so are many African ones. Problem is they don't have oil so we don't bother with them. Morality never entered into it.
