We have been duped into thinking we were needed to police the terrorists- only to find out now that WE were the terrorists all along. From Nixon onward, we have been voting for our own demise and making the rest of the world hate us. Hope that has now ended…

That is the problem with westeners. They love their own MCU Hollywood stink. Everywhere we went secular transformed into barberic, that was the point. Now, most are perplexed we are getting the same treatment!

Europe and the Brits are looters, but so has the US been for the last 80 years. I always have to laugh when current crop of militairy specialist speak about the deserved European karma in today’s world! If one would tally up that death and destruction done by that country full of exceptionals, Europe + USA leaders will be standing shoulder next shoulder trying to get past Saint Peter at the gates of heaven.

Interesting clip. I read a book by an American woman who lived in Afghanistan in the 50’s or 60’s with her husband and taught English there, when George W. Bush started the Afghan War. She described a lovely, ancient country with gardens everywhere. It wasn’t filled with hate-teaching Islamic madrassahs spouting Wahhabi Islam - for that, Saudi Arabia, the Bush family’s favorite Arab country, with whom they were close pals for decades, can be thanked (just like most of the 9/11 hijackers were Saudi).
