America deserved 9/11
Your comment has to be the most disgraceful I have ever read on Pprune.
This is a long way from being the most disgraceful comment ever on PPrune. There are a lot of of people out there, mostly silent, who hold similar beliefs. Are they raving, bomb-making, anti-western lunatics? Unlikely. Maybe they understand that for a country to repeatedly meddle in events occuring on the far side of the globe for no other reason than out of pure self interest, there will one day be a price to pay. Is it terrible that 2500+ Americans died on Sept 11? Yes. Does it rate in historical terms relative to the pain and suffering caused by American intervention in various political events and conflicts throughout the world? Not even close. Iraq version 2.0 has far surpassed it in further US casualities alone not to mention the quarter million plus Iraqi civillians who have died as a result. Perhaps Zhaadum didin't get the point across well but possibly the US had it coming rather than deserved it?
The Comet.
