Just a little coment on the "America`s faulf for being attaced" thing. Teroirsts have reasons ,yes. They claim to have some ideal to which the fight for . But is there realy an escuse for the killing of inosents?! they are caliming to fight in the name of God ,so I`m asking -WHO MADE THEM GOD TO TAKE THE LIFE OF OTHERS?!?!?!
As far as America`s fault... it`s rediculous! is it America`s fault that these people choole to live a primitive life (And by prmitive I mean their barbaric ways of fighting and killing -NOT the fact that they`re poor. that`s not their fault ). They`re jealous of prograssion, technology, it`s powerfull and they`re not a part of it ,it`s quite clear. BUT...Taking a plane and...eh!
There is a reason for the killing ,YES! is The USA guilty?! NO NO NO!
If they`re guilty of things surely 9.11 is no "punishment"! If they weren`t so primitive they`d find better and more human ways to make their point!!!

As for Yoda- HE ROCKS!
First off, I have already appologized for leaving that statement so open to interpretation. Thusly, I am unsure whether this was just an attempt to argue me down, or whether this was a statement of opinion... However, it is filled with uninformed comments and I feel I should clear a few things up.
They live a primative life of fighting and killing because that is their way of life. Their religion is based around the principles that women are to serve men, men do the work, if someone attacks you then you have the right to attack them back, if someone steals something from you, you are entitled to exact revenge. An eye for an eye, hand for a hand. Granted, in Osama Bin-Laden's Afghanistan, there was a great deal of seperation from the true islamic type religion, there was a great deal of corruption, propaganda seeded into their 'bible', propaganada such as 'kill all americans and our god will be happy'. Now, the afghan way of life is subsequently corrupt automatically against the US. But, remember, they are not offered education, everything that went into their lives was controlled by the dictator, they did not have a choice to be so barbaric. If you sympathise with the US, then you are a traitor to your country, your religion, and your god. You would have to question the word of your god in the first place to even realise that the US was not an enemy, and if somehow you came to the realisation that the US wasnt even around when their religious text was supposedly written, then you would try to validate it, but there are no un-tainted copies around, there is really no way for them to learn anything but hatred. The funding of terrorism by the US, the abandonment these people felt when they no longer had use, no longer had funding, the plights of whom were completely ignored by the US - these things caused, in one way or another, Im not precisely sure how, but these were causes for the biblical mis-representations/propaganada that became present.
Also, this is not a christian or catholic God, this is a completely different religion. As for who made them God, gave them the right to kill people, the answer is noone gave them that right, they never have had it. However, the powers that ran that country facilitated it, again, feeling that the state of their war torn country was fault of the US. So they facilitated the propaganda from which their God says how glorious it is to kill others in the name of their country.
The whole conflict is deeply seeded in the western ideals. That, and the funding of terrorists 50 some odd years ago which has caused most problems of today. The US helps 3rd world countries back on their feet, sure, but in turn places the capitalist/democratic systems into these countries, at the cost of exponentially increasing debts in these countries because they make no money off the industrys the US places there, they have to sell nigh all their food just to pay off a small portion of the debts, and if you look to situations like somalia, its US interference that caused most of the problems - but in the case of somalia, it dates back further to the imperialist domination of britain, france, etc, in Africa in the 200 years prior to WWII. The West's ideals conflict directly with the ideals of the East. To call them jealous of the US and the technology is complete bullshit. What you have to realise is that they do not think like us Westerners. They have a vastly simpler way of life. They do not need technology to exist. Where western culture has been around since Greece, Rome, the enlightenment, Eastern civilization has been around for thousands more years. The West are the ones who desire progression, the ones who desire advancement, and in the short time western civilization has been around, our technology quickly became vastly superior to theirs. The end result being, in the simplest terms available, you will be like us or we will kill you because our technology of the ways of destruction far exceed yours. The idea of the East wanting progression is an idea imposed on them by the West. If you just look at China, they existed in seclusion from all the world until the British tried to colonize them, addicted the nation to Opium to gain power over them, and corrupted them. The West, although in some ways superior to the East, is also in some ways inferior. However, the corruption of the East was inevitable, since it would just be a matter of time until the West said 'hey, we need what you have' and tried to take it from them in one way or another. The reason that these countries want the West's technology now is so they can defend themselves, and if you look at it, the US pours money into these governments to be spent on food, social services, health care, education, but where does the money really go? Into buying weapons and equal technology. Ultimately, whatever they do, whether refuse to pay these countries, or continue to pay them, the money will be spent in the wrong ways or the country will see them as more of an enemy because just as before with others, they are being abandoned by 'an arrogant country who only aims to improve itself'. Regardless of the truth of that statement, thats what happens.
Id type more, but I have 2 assignments due tomorrow, and I really need to finish, plus I need to organize my thoughts on the issue a little more - since some of that is a little incoherant, and I appologize.
