Well, you are a loser if you let religion control your actions. This is not
just with regard to islam, it's also very applicable to christianity, if you
remember the crusades, and the drowning of little children.
No one ever said that America's been correct 100% of the time. But though I
do not condone Hiroshima/Nagasaki, it was an act of retaliation against the
bombing of Pearl Harbor. By then there was a full-blown war going on. I
don't see any ongoing wars on right now (at least not just yet).

The problem is that they are NOT a bunch of losers, but can be regarded
men
even with high status. They are not desperate lunatics, but fanatics who
believes they are doing the right thing! When your religion points out
America as the big evil through all your life, you begin believing it, and
when you are promised 70 virgins after this life, and your family will be
given financial security when you are dead, you get brainwashed into
believing
you are doing the right thing. I am not defending this horrible act, but
just
arguing the point that they are a bunch of losers.
Just remember what a bunch of American losers have done through the
time..
Hiroshima, Nagasaki, raping women and children, skinning koreans alive in
the
Korean wars, using napalm on children and so on..
The problem lies in the systems, and be sure there are more people who
would
do such things for their country or their religion than you`d believe in
your
worst nightmare.
That is why I am an anarchist.. I would not want anything to do with any
of
those systems that can make family fathers become kamikaze mass murderers.
I am sorry for the loss of sivilan lives in any country, regardless of
what
their government believes. Lets not forget that Israel is moving in to
Palistinian territory right now.

I personally wonder how someone could let a bunch of losers with plastic
knives and boxcutters on a plane. Also, knowing how weak boxcutters are
(worst they can inflict is a flesh wound), I'm surprised the lot of
people
on the plane did nothing to stop the hijacking.
Overall, I agree that there was no way attack on the twin towers could've
been avoided. But allowing the hijacking to occur was just because of
plain
stupidity.
Sorry for posting off-topic stuff =)

The problem is these terrorists have proven that it is possible to
strike
anywhere, anytime.
Now I'm not exactly pro-america, and even not pro-kapitalism and
'democracy'. (But lets talk about that later). The people who created
these
insane plans must never get any power of any kind, and should not be
able
to
strike as hard as this again...
/me is going to watch some more CNN.
