Do you think America brought 9/11 onto itself?

Question

To gumby: I really couldn't care less if it what happened in 9//1 was wrong. Get over it. The US killed 6,750 Iraq civilians in the first day of air strikes against Iraq. That's TWO 9/11's right there.

Answer 1

America's foreign policy very much brought 9/11 upon itself.
And the sympathy that other nations sent to the US after the event quickly dissolved when US troops invaded Iraq. A country that CLEARLY had nothing to do with 9/11.
But it has one thing that Afghanistan doesn't; LOTS of oil!

Answer 2

America thinks its siht doesn't stink.... Its unfortunate but yes the US has been basically swipping its arss with the world and thinks its ok and gets mad when the world complains. If you truly the US real involvement with any country its usually because it will get something out of it. Look at the political leaders they all have benefitted from the war $$$$$. There are tons of information, documentaries, books, etc that show you that its all about profit. It was wrong what happened and how those people died but at the same time it was like mooning someone wanting to get kicked in the arss. The US needs to help other countries and the whole world needs to help each other to make life better for everyone....

Answer 3

yes i believe so. and i agree with u. the amount of people that american soldiers killed in iraq on the first day was two 9/11's....america did bring 9/11 onto themselves....there are so many reasons: i'm not much into politics but I do know that America has always "disliked" the middle eastern countries and that was a major factor in this....even before 9/11, they thoguht iraq has weapons of mass destruction and they wanted to catch osama bin laden. all in all, so many thigs led to 9/11....its just crazy.

Answer 4

Yes, the US government meddled in middle eastern politics, creating alot of hatred. If we had never given Israel the bombs that it used to attack Lebanon, Syria, and Egypt, backed the Shah of Iran, urged Saddam Hussein to attack Iran, or trained Al Qaeda ourselves, 9/11 never would have happened. 9/11 was blowback caused by an irrational foreign policy. The leaders of America put their own citizens in the crosshairs of terrorists by trying to manipulate the middle eastern countries for their own gains. This is exactly why our founders wanted us to be neutral towards all countries and to stay out of entangling alliances, policing the world causes people to hate us. Just ask yourself: how many terrorists have attacked Switzerland, a country that remains neutral in all conflicts? The answer is none, and Switzerland also has a booming economy ad cutting edge technologies.

Answer 5

It's so funny, i remember that day like it was yesterday! The MINUTE that happened, the TV, the RADIO, the NEWSPAPER, they didn't even give the smoke the chance to clear up before the claimed it was an extremist releigious attack by Osama Bin Laden! I was shocked. i was in an Islamic school at the time, and we were evacuated cause ppl were sending the school threats!!!
when we were driving back home, people were throwing things at our car and spitting at us, like WE did it.
This hate still goes on till today, and if it continues, for sure someone's gonna get hurt!

Answer 6

Yes I do. American foreign policy is really bad and they think they have the right to play world police to every other country in the world and it wouldn't surprise me if they were behind 9/11 and the Cuban invasion in the Bay of Pigs. But of course anyone knows that the CIA screwed up the bay of pigs and then denied that it ever happened because they didn't want to admit how much they screwed up. America the CIA, created Al Quedia and Osama Bin Laden. It wouldn't surprise me if the USA government planned 9/11 just to go steal oil from Iraq and invade Iraq & Afghanistan on their happy little quest for conquering the rest of the world. No wonder North Korea, China, Russia, and Iran are taking up nuclear arms to protect themselves against USA. Our allies are going to turn on us if the USA is not careful and keeps invading other countries and forcing their lifestyle on them. Also the USA is responsible for putting Saddam in power. The USA paid billions of dollars to Osama back in the 90s and early 2000 to keep out the Soviets in Afghanistan and they are responsible for putting more dictators like Stalin, Hitler, and Saddam in power because they go and kill the previous dictators. There is no way the Twin Towers could have fallen straight down with just a couple of planes hitting them. At most it would have knocked the floors above off but not the entire building. There had to be missels strapped to the bottom of those planes and bombs in the building to bring the Twin Towers down like they fell. I don't know why people don't use their brain and think. And if you noticed shortly after there were firefighters and rescue crews from as far away as Ohio who were there within 5 minutes of the attacks so what does that tell you? They obviously knew about it before it was scheduled to happen. The USA Government has gone so far from what they originally stand for and far from what the founding fathers wanted for this country in their quest for oil and forcing other countries to accept democracy unwillingly. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see China or Russia attack USA if the USA were to invade those countries and I wouldn't be surprised if our allies turn against us in the near future. Bush is friends with the Bin Laden family and it's a fact that the USA has always hated people who aren't like them and that they hate Middle Eastern countries in particular. Bin Laden's parents were in Texas when 9/11 happened and the CIA smuggled the Bin Laden family out of the USA before anyone noticed. Don't you think that if the USA was so bent on catching Osama Bin Laden that they would have caught him already? They had numerous occassions where they could have caught him yet he mysteriously dissappeared. I think the USA Government is letting Osama escaped capture but that's just my opinion. Back during the first Gulf war Saddam was killing innocent civilians in his country with chemcials and gas and the USA knew about it and did nothing. They let lots of innocent people die. I think that the USA only steps in when it benefits them. Iraq never had WMDS. It was a lie by Bush and the Government of the USA in order for Bush to invade Iraq. Don't forget that the Taliban were fine until a couple of morons changed the ways and ideals of the Taliban. The Taliban was also trained by the CIA and were originally set up to protect Afghanistan and help their people. How do you expect Afghainstan to fix it's country and improve it's economy if it keeps being invaded and attacked. Afghanistan has been fighting war for 19 years most of it with the Soviet Union and now with the USA.

Answer 7

YES, the USA says it fights for democracy but acts as a dictator to the rest of the world.
9-11 killed 3000 Americans now Bush has caused 9-11 to happen again to the USA -- 3815 Military Fatalities with Iraq.

Plus with the war has caused more people to hate the USA for its actions

Answer 8

Yes. We have grown fat and lazy spiritually and forgotten the God who founded this country. How long did we think we could mirror Sodom & Gommorrah and escape judgement? The worst for America has not been seen yet, and when they attack again, God help us all.

The US is in bed with everybody. We feel as if we are the international police, while in the mean time, we treat our own citizens (seniors in particular) like they are sub-standard. We have no regard for God or His standards and yet we still have our hand out to Him with the audacity to say 'God Bless America' When will America Bless God and stop profaning ourselves and each other?

These are just my thoughts.......

Answer 9

America wasn't listening to God. There were prophetic words given before it happened. Jesus manipulated things so many weren't there who would have been there & many were saved just before 9/11 happened (one of the replacement stewardesses was witnessed to a few times before 9/11 & the last time she asked Jesus in her heart.) Then she died in 9/11.

In a way we're guilty in that we didn't listen to God about it. Kim Clement had a vision of it before hand & mentions this in his new book, "Call me crazy, but I am hearing God" and he is going to be on the 'Larry King' show soon, now that he has written the book that reveals what prophesies came true. As a Prophet of the Lord.

I know the Pastor of my child hood church had a vision of the statue of liberty holding up a sword rather than a torch & there were stormy skies & planes. He knew something bad was going to happen, but didn't know what. I thought someone was going to hurt my daughter's horse & my daughter was running away at the time. So? My horse was being hauled to my mothers in OR. The man told me what just happened, that the tower fell. It was in the news. My bible study leader said that God woke her up early to pray for something in Washington & for the President, etc... She didn't really know why at the time.

So? What I have learned is to be attentive to the Lord & to ask God what the dream or vision means & what can I do about it. Or to go this way or that way.

9/11 wouldn't have happened if we (Christians) were abiding in Christ the way we are supposed to. But we are learning the lesson. And getting more observent.

Answer 10

yes.

nothing just happens. there is always a root cause.

" you reap what you sow "...
for every action there is a reaction.

consider striking a table with your palm.
your performed the action. (Striking the table)
you felt the reaction. (pain)
action and reaction are bound together.
It is the way of nature.

Considering world wide events i actually think there is more to come. i hope they are better prepared
