Quote:
You keep trying to find a reason to pin responsibility on the US and the first world. It isn't there. Islam in general is not responsible for this attack; neither bin Laden nor the Taliban represents Islam in general, and _both_ have been denounced (the Taliban even BEFORE Sept 19th) by Islamic countries and Islamic religious leaders.

I never said Islam was, as an entity, responsible. Are you seriously telling me there is little or no support in Lebanon, Palastine, Iran, Saudi Arabia and Many other states for the Taliban and Bin Laden? Many want a Taliban style revolution! (interesting naffact: aparantly the footage of Palstinians celebrating shown on CNN was from 1991)
The PLO, Hamas, Hezbolah(how u spell it?)Islamic Jihad etc, support Bin Laden and are closely interlinked, they have mainstream suppot in the Islamic world.
And to assume there is no cultural, economic or political basis for what they did, they why did they?
I stand by what i said, marginalised, often impoverished people a ripe for exploitation by extremist movements, viola Middle East.
