Yes, M. Ted, you can do a lot with a little if you wish to, but the governments of Aghanistan and Iraq and the people of Afghanistan and Iraq did not plan, organize or commit the violent acts on 911. Those were criminal acts, not acts of war between nations. They should have been responded to with a full scale internationally organized criminal investigation and with covert intelligence action, not with 2 unjustified wars against small nations by a superpower (and its allies).

Invasion of foreign countries on completely flimsy pretences creates malice, imagination, and determination on the part of many individuals who wish to avenge the devastation wrought upon their own nations. It sows the seeds of many future sorrows, and when those seeds ripen almost ALL the people that get hurt will just be innocent bystanders, much like the 3,000 who died on 911.
