Well, it did do a lot to cause the attack. And not by harmlessly distributing Britney Spears videos, either. Some of being targeted was because America was "walking point" for the West in general. But the US has done a lot of selfish things to make other countries mad at it over the years. Like it or not, if your policies make some people angry enough to kill themselves to show their displeasure, you need to rethink your policies. But this is not a very popular thing to say, and the Left does have some political sense.

With comments like these, it's easy to understand why you lost your job as a rape and battered women's advocate. You, sir, are an idiot.

Kevin,
Were you attempting to be ironic or funny? It failed.
This personal attack was *really* uncalled for. Disagree with David all you like, but do *not* attack him. Quite frankly, I think you owe him an apology.
PLEASE attack the argument and NOT the poster.
