Question for GBH of the 9/11 Firefighter link from the New York Times ?

Question

You answered ¨Freethinker¨ that the U.S. wasn´t in Iraq at the time of the Twin Towers Attack. Of course not. What had Iraq to do with Bin Laden? Nothing at all!
However,we,the U.S.A. have unfairly and unremittently given our full support to Israel for half a century and backed their theft of Palestine from the Palestinians(both Muslim and Christian!!)with our military might and a colossal amount of money for years. Israel can do no wrong;the Palestinians can do nothing right. THIS is why we are hated in the Arab(Muslim) world. Terrorism is NEVER justified but, given our foreign policy of the last 60 years or more,the Arab and Muslim world have NO reasons to either like or trust us. We are reaping what we have sowed.
We are screaming about Iran getting nuclear weapons but Israel has had them for years and we haven´t batted an eyelash. Israel and the Apartheid gov. in South Africa were hand in glove,exchanging nuclear secrets, and we never had a problem with that !

Answer 1

I'm from the US and I share your bitter feelings for the unilateral support of Israel. However, no perceived wrong justifies 9/11. Furthermore, just because Israel is wrong doesn't mean the Arabs are right.

Answer 2

Hear, hear !
