Appropriate action against appropriate enemies is not turning the other cheek. Not a single Afghan attacked us. The thousands of innocents killed and the destabilization of an entire country with absolutely nothing done that made us any safer. Bin Laden may have been in Afghanistan, but his power base was in Pakistan, and Bush et al cozened up the Pakistani government because it in their financial and political interest to do so.
That war was never about revenge for 9/11 - it was about greed, as was the Iraq war. If wanna know the real reasons, follow the money.
