What FC (which I have a good idea what it stands for) conveniently omitted was that this was a reply to the post by mnchiefsguy who said, "There is nothing that the United States has done that warranted that attack." I was explaining that there was not one big thing but a total sum of many smaller things that added up big. Hence the "Pounds" and "Ton" reference.
This was just a statement of a sad fact. And if anybody does not think that the West, especially the US did not partake in the looting of the Middle East over most of the 20th century he/she either has his/her head up his ass or is in total denial.
AGAIN: I did not say the US did something like a military attack that provoked the 9/11 attack. I said the US policies in most of the 20th century was definitely a major contribution to it.
MC58 also failed to mention that I, as most Iranians and former Iranians have, have condemned the 9/11 attack. Mine was even repeated several times in that very thread.
I don't expect bigoted idiots like MC to understand what I just said. But most of the rest of you should, unless you wear ignorance as a badge of honor.

There is not one thing that justified the attack of 9/11. Nor is there any combination or any total sum of things that would warrant said attack period. Add up all the pounds and tons you like Frankie, but the spirit and words of your post were clearly saying that the US had a responsibility for the attack. There is no summation of US policies that justifies what happened that day, no matter how you try to spin it.
FC58 owned you, just admit it.
