Hello? This is news?
Right or wrong, of course US actions led to the attack -- otherwise al Queda
would have gone after Peru or Sweden or someone else. This news report isn't
saying that 80% of Canadians think the attacks on the US were JUSTIFIED, it's
saying that US ACTIONS LED TO THE ATTACK.
US bases in Saudi Arabia, cheap oil, mass dissemination of Western culture .
. . we may not think these things are wrong, but someone does. Those are some
of the "US actions (that) led to the attack."
Shit. I had promised myself I wouldn't get into this . . .
