(10,558 posts)did nothing to piss anyone off at us.
Tell you what, can you Google depleted uranium YouTube and spend a little time on those links? Look at all those malformed babies, look at those mothers, sick with grief over their born dead monstrosities, WHO FUCKING DID THAT TO THEM!
Their land was poisoned and will remain poisoned for millennia and then Bush Jr. doubled down by reinvading Iraq after poisoning Afghanistan.
Now Afghanistan has reason to hate us too. Have you seen this:

No, Obama bin Laden did not use our use of WMD as a reason to attack us, he just wanted us out of Saudi Arabia, he wanted sanctions lifted against Iraq and he wanted us to stop supporting Israel.
You are right that we did not deserve the nightmare that was/is 9/11 if you argue from his reasoning. The Geneva Conventions deal with such war criminals, bin Laden was arguably a war criminal or at the very least an international mass murderer.
From what reasoning did Iraq, Bosnia and later on Afghanistan deserve a much much larger nightmare and why haven't the War Criminals or mass murderers who did this to them been brought to trial?
No, folks in the Middle East have no reason to be pissed at us. Should another attack like 9/11 occur, there will be many, FAR TOO MANY here who will say that we did nothing to deserve it.
I have a saying: Those who would bury their head in the sand present their ass to the world. Maybe the world would like to chat with them face to face.
