Now now... go read your history and get this correct:
We armed and aided the Mujadeen to help them free their country from SOVIET rule. Osama bin Laden was only ONE individual there, and not senior at ALL.
Al Queda was formed in 1991 in protest of US troops in Saudia Arabia (to liberate Kuwait) after ObL was told by the Saudi government that they didn't want to turn the Iraq invasion of Kuwait into a religious war... and by then we were NOT friends with ObL, nor supporting him or his group. Al Queda wasn't repelling the Soviets... they had already LEFT Afghanistan.
And of COURSE we can complain with regards to RUSSIA violating agreements and treaties in arming Iran and in arming insurgent groups. Iran is interfering in Iraq and treatening war.
Use some common sense

No doubt eh? The only thing I have no doubt of is that no matter how ignorant you think the most ignorant person you've met is, there's always going to be someone who's worse, so far you're today's leader.
