You just said they should have invaded Saudi Arabia? Acts of war don't get pursued in court.

In what way are they being asked to upgrade?

It only somewhat mimics automatic weapons. It doesn’t completely mimic them. Automatic weapons still fire faster.

I’m not sure what you’re talking about, but my only point was that helping Afghanistan defend itself from the Soviet Union was the right thing to do, and wasn’t the reason Bin Laden decided to plan terrorist attacks over a decade later.

Maybe. But Al Qaeda was based in Afghanistan. So you’re advocating that Saudi Arabia should have been invaded too? What blowback would that have created?

You’re just repeating yourself. Yep, I get that he felt the US influence in the Middle East was too great. And the support for Israel. But nothing about helping Afghanistan repel and illegal conquest invasion of Afghanistan had anything to do with what he decided to do a decade later. Helping Afghanistan in that situation was absolutely the right thing to do.

Example?

I disagree. I think it's much more than a tendency. Otherwise, homosexuality would be a lot higher of a percentage in society. i don't think we have much of a choice when it comes to what sex we're attracted to. it just is.

Then work to change the rules.

Each party takes their turns on who and when they call somebody a traitor.

Yep, I know all that. None of that is listed as a reason for the attacks. Which was your premise.

But nothing about Afghanistan is listed in the letter to America.
