When you point your finger at someone else, there's always three more pointing right back at YOU.

If it weren't for American/European interference and megalomaniac attempts to control the Middle East (and 'all the riches buried there' - as the song goes) for at least the last 5 decades, Sept 11 would NEVER have happened and the current situation would NOT exist today. The terrorists - and their weapons - are a direct result of 'our' own greed and violence in countries where WE HAVE NO BUSINESS (except the business of economic and political exploitation and domination).

I agree with Little Hawk. I mean no offense to the American people, or any individual Americans - but their government's foreign policies (and I don't mean just the current gov't, although it's probably the worst one yet) has brought this on themselves.

I'm ashamed that my own gov't just follows Bush's lead, like a bunch of rats following an insane 'Pied Piper'. And I really resent being dragged into their never-ending bloody attempts at world domination.

Enough already. I'll get back to practicing love-thy-neighbour now. Sorry about the lapse.
