In their religion the muslims who die will get their 70 virgins and what not. The rest they do not care about. Do you understand Islam?

Would it be fair to say that Iraq declared war on the US when the twin towers got attacked? That's what my mum told me a few months ago.

Asides from the fact that Iraq had absolutely nothing to do with it, yeah.

No, but they whole heartedly cheered about it and got their butts kicked.

And the Saudis who actually did the attack got lots of oil money... I dont remember the Iraqis throwing much of a party either.

Saddam Hussein on 9/11

"If the attacks of September 11 cost the lives of 3,000 civilians, how much will the size of losses in 50 states within 100 cities if it were attacked in the same way in which New York and Washington were? What would happen if hundreds of planes attacked American cities?"
(On the first anniversary of September 11th)

"The simple truth [about September 11] is that America burned itself and now tries to burn the world."

Even Bush denies a link.

During the start of the war there were lots government statements about weapons of mass destruction, eventually denied after finding none there. True the war in Afganistan is more because of 9/11, but Saddam still was an arse. Possibly the whole reason for the war was for Bush Jr to finish his daddy's work. Either way, if we're after stopping WOMD, we need to get going to Persia.

Dont be so naive. The reason was pure and simple, money. Go and read some of Michael Moores stuff, or watch Fahreinheit 9/11, the evidence is in there, albeit presented in a biased fashion.

Money always comes in somewhere, but it isn't the only reason. Those books I'm sure are anti-Bush bias for sure, but to say greed is our only cause puts us on a lower level than the Spaniards-at least they made a missionary effort, but America has blocked missionaries. Other than a few of the soldiers.

The money I suggest was a large chunk of it. It was personal fortunes as opposed to national that were behind it. As an aside, how did you get banned? :P

There is this wonderful thing called the Constitution and it has something called "The Bill Of Rights".

And there is one really important part that says.

Quote:
"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof"


This means the government may not:

1. Fund any sort of religious organization in any, way, shape, or form
2. May not display religious iconography on public land
3. May not engage in religious activities on public time or during their job
4. Interfere with religious worship of any group as long as only consenting adults and animals are harmed in the practice of them
5. Prefer Religion to Irreligion

There are violations of this in some places but we will have them under control soon.

They also shouldn't prevent the excercise of religion either.

That's covered in the fourth bullet.
