    Let me ask you a question. Would you say the US is completely responsible for why they hate us or do you feel that Muslims, specifically radical fundamentalists and corrupt regimes such as Saudi Arabia's, are also responsible for this animosity.

    I'm not saying america is completely responsible for anything i am saying that when you look at the facts you can understand why things happen the way they do.

    There are corrupt regimes out there without a shadow of a doubt one of the worst being Saudi Arabia which you guys are in bed with. Doesn't that worry you.

    I think to much time is spent pointing the finger and getting angry at what is happening outside of our countries. When the real big issues and the biggest threats to ourselves are in fact what is happening inside of our own countries.
    Keep on rockin in the free world!!!!

    The economy has polarized to the point where the wealthiest 10% now own 85% of the nation’s wealth. Never before have the bottom 90% been so highly indebted, so dependent on the wealthy.

    I agree with you. If you have read any of my posts on this message board you would know that I am constantly criticizing our relationship with the Saudi's and how the Saudi government is a huge source of recruits and funds for terrorist organizations. I don't know if you have read it but I would suggest reading Sleeping With The Devil by Robert Baer. It discusses exactly what we have been talking about here. How our foreign policy has screwed these people over for decades. How corrupt governments have used that animosity to their advantage. How fundamentalists have used it to help spread their perverted interpretation of Islam and spread jihad.
