If more people stopped and asked why does the US have so many enemies they would realize the government has landed them in alot of trouble. They have done enough damage and while what is happening in Iran and Syria is wrong i think they need to learn from their mistakes and stop trying to "intervene" because they really do not have all the answers and in the long term only create problems for themselves. Not to mention the soldiers who they have sent to their death for nothing.

It's funny that when they were fighting communists they were refered to as "freedom fighters" and today they are labelled terrorists, despite the US funding and training them. As for 9/11 Bin laden has said himself he was angered by the US support of Israeli and before the invasion of Lebanon he had no intention to attack the US. I am not supporting terrorism in any way but the US government have made extremely poor choices this las century and it seems US citizens paid the price for it.

At the exact same time the Russian army was being deployed in Afghanistan because of a rebel uprising. The US sent in CIA agents to fund, arm and train the mujahideen freedrom fighters. Essentially the rebels were fighting Communism on behalf of america. The rebel forces divided into different faction lead by different war lords, and despite the Pakistani president warning the US was creating a "Frankistien". After the war several of them them included Bin Laden formed Al qaeda

In the 1940's UN divided palestine giving elitist zionist jews the majority (even though muslim and christian arabs had lived there for the past 2000 years) They believed because of what their invisible deity said that is it their promised land they can occupy it and ethnically cleanse it of anyone who wasnt jewish In 1982 the Israeli army invaded Lebanon, they were funded by the US and supported by US navy. The war claimed the lives of tens of thousands of innocent muslim men women and children

What is left of the international system and the United Nations and the Security Council of the Syrian regime and Iran's terrorist is still killing the Syrian people in genocide, and now they are using helicopters to attack peaceful demonstrators and used by the terrorist Hezbollah sniper hired to hunt demonstrators inside Syria Stop the injustice and genocide and the silence of the international crime because it would impact negatively on international unity and regulations

Its always Mujaheddin when alive, civilian when dead, that's how you turn a defeat into a propaganda win.

@toddisin26 Quoting you: "and they still say why araps and muslims hate america??? just look what you have done to them,and it all work only for israel's favor."

And now your screaming for NATO and the West to save your asses in Syria, Libya, Bahrain, Iran, etc., etc.

Get your own act together, and quit blaming the West, NATO, Zionists, Jews, Israel, and the West for EVERY ONE OF YOUR OWN fucking problems, like your idiotic Supreme Council of Mullahs charging people of sorcery..

@radimaida Thease people where not drug dealers illegally in the US either. They where in there own hood unarmed. I am a Vet. Now days they send Troops to fight other peoples battles. There is so much wrong that is never reported in the news. They have a right to be mad. We do to, but not at thease people here. Mad at the Government who allows drug dealers from Mexico in our Country and who sends our troops to fight others battles, also who has border patrol armed with bean bag guns.

[shinnob]

I want for our President to bring home all our Troops. A lot of Americans want our Troops home!. Our media is controlled and does not tell this. Your People must help us! Tell Barrack Obama to take American Troops Home!. He will listen to the Muslim people, they will not let him hear us. Send him letters please, tell everyone there to send our President letters. We have to stop this blood shed. I am just one Woman.
