our entire involvement in the middle east since the 80s has been a fight we had no business being in
im gonna say something right now that's going to make a lot of people angry but just calm down and look at this from an objective point of view
WE BROUGHT 9-11 UPON OURSELVES
there its said now think about it, how many airstrikes did we perform in the 20 years leading up to 9-11
how many middle eastern people did we kill?
we started that war well over 10 years prior to 9-11 were we really all that surprised that they finally fought back?
was it really a shock that the children who survived desert storm and all the other operations that went on in the 80s and 90s were all grown up and so easily radicalized?
is it really a wonder that the arab people living in other areas of the world America included that are treated like scum and spit on and beaten for no reason other than how they look or what they believe are so easily turned to the other size?
someone who would never have thought of joining isis is now being shunned, and beaten and pushed around and finally decides that's enough
by no means is it right that they do the things they do but stop for just one second and think about this the other way around, what would we as americans do if another country spent 10+ years in America dropping bombs, telling us how to use our natural resources, forcing us to harbor soldiers of the very government that invaded and is occupying our country, overthrowing our leaders (different types of leaders I know but its still about upsetting the balance and making the people in power lose faith, it makes a dangerous situation more dangerous)
how would we as americans respond to that? probably not that much different from how they responded to us
