If a country invades another and rains bombs down on their people killing men, women and children then that country is a terrorist state. The U.S. bombed at least seven countries last year. Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Syria, Somalia, and Yemen dropping over 26,000 bombs. When over 80% of these munitions hit noncombatants you have opened the door to blowback or what we dub as terrorism. Lets say you’re living in one of these countries lets say it’s your country and another countries drops a bomb on your home killing your wife or husband and children. What is your response? It is astonishing that a very low percentage of these victims who have lost just about everything and sometimes everyone they loved want revenge. “List of combatant numbers: (CIA estimate in 2014) 20,000–31,000.” I’ll tell you if you killed one of mine I don’t know if I could live with that? Terrorism is blowback from our endeavors of imperialism and world domination. Starting with the Spanish–American War in 1898 but we can start with the Soviet war in Afghanistan where “Under CIA's Operation Cyclone from 1979 to 1989, the United States and Saudi Arabia provided billions worth of financial aid and weapons to almost 100,000 Mujahideen and "Afghan Arabs.” Lets not forget that Osama bin Laden was also receiving aid from the U.S. He was our man in Afghanistan at one time. Taking out Russians. Then we jump ahead to when the U.S. and the Saudis decided that it would be a good idea to establish a U.S. military base in Saudi Arabia. Osama bin Laden did not care for the thought of infidels in his homeland. The result of these actions was 9/11 and then the war on terrorism began for US. We bombed Afghanistan and Pakistan looking for Osama bin Laden and then Iraq for alleged WMD’s and then Libya, Pakistan, Syria, Somalia, and Yemen looking for what? Yet none of these countries had anything to do with the 9/11 attack. A million innocent people were killed in Iraq alone with millions more displaced. "Fifteen of the hijackers that were involved in 9/11 were from Saudi Arabia, two from the United Arab Emirates, one from Egypt, and one from Lebanon." Most of these people that we killed were not your enemy and probably did not give a second thought about you or yours until we shattered their lives. Now many of them want you and yours and I can’t blame them. The more bombs that rain down on these people the more terrorist we create. The people that gain from this murderous action are the banks, military-industrial complex and a government that wishes to control you through fear. Edited by _g R_, May 5 2018, 11:46 PM.

Probably the most overrated academic there is, and that's saying something. I can't for the life of me understand why people think this guy is smart. |

Probably because your reading skills wouldn't allow you to comprehend his writing, so you rely on the opinions of right wing interpreters whose special interests don't align with the professor's views. |
