Where does Hillary Stand? 9-11: Blowback or Hate our Freedom
Has she ever taken that quiz? Have any of our candidates?

1. I consider it a barely relevant point at present
Though I believe it is mostly blowback, I don't believe apologies and packing up and going home will placate them now.

2. It is very relevant
It is a statement of core philosophy. I would hope the question gets asked.

3. Placate who?
Iraqis had nothing to do with 9/11. They just happen to want their country back.

6. "packing up and going home"
implies leaving Iraq.

9. why do you think you can tell me what I've written implies?
Blowback over 9/11 has to do with our presence in Muslim countries, pre-Iraq.

7. The Topic Is Meddling
Iraq is a systemic result of an overall theme that is not unique to any one political party. The basic concept is that some people think it is acceptable behavior to hang around in peoples back yards like some 3000 pound gorilla, waving ones arms and banging ones chest ... while others seem to understand that such actions come with consequence. Its a great core question and it troubles me that of our candidates I am almost certain all would lock hands with Rudy and sing some patriotic song. That needn't be our future as well as our past, if only someone would ask the question.

8. In fact in one way B*sh did placate OBL
by moving troops out of Saudi Arabia.

5. I don't think any of our candidates have taken that question yet...

And it would be interesting to see how much the Democratic Party differs from the Republican Party on this issue. Dems definently support this argument more than the Repugs though.

10. 9/11 was "facilitated blowback" IMO.
The motive* was already there but the means and opportunity were provided by Bushco and their financier buddies in SA, UAE and Pakistan.

*The PNAC crew also had a very compelling motive, which is why I also see it as joint-venture.

11. Exactly - it didn't happen in a vacuum. IranContra, BCCI, CIA drugrunning
made it clear that BushInc was up to no good years ago, along with their international financier friends who were funding the growing global terrorist networks in order to facilitate the emergence of New World Order - BFEE style.
