Radar. Wouldn't you say that the fact that Japan attacked us during WWII was because of the trade embargo which can be considered as an act of war.

I've already said they attacked us in retaliation for our actions, but the trade embargos were a result of Japan murdering millions and millions of Chinese people (far more than the number of Russian and Jewish deaths from WWII combined) but America was wrong to make those embargos. We should have refused to trade with them ourselves, but we cut off their oil from Dutch suppliers so there was
some justification for their attack.

Finally, I think it's fair to say that there wouldn't have been a 911 if not for all the previous US interventions in the middle east.

I totally agree with that statement, but disagree on the this one...

There is still no 100% proof that it was Al Quada who was responsible for the attack nor is there any proof that the Taliban fully supported the attack.

Actually there is 100% proof that those who blew up the WTC were members of Al Queda. Some of it was in their own suicide notes left behind, and their ID's. Although 17 of the 19 terrorists were from Saudi Arabia, and we sure didn't attack them.
The Taliban may or may not have agreed with the attack on the WTC, but that is irrelevant. We asked them to turn over Al Queda and they refused, so they were harboring criminals which makes them criminals.
If the American military was doing their ONLY job of defending AMERICA instead of being a huge show of force around the world pissing everyone else off with our military interventionism we never would have had a September 11th attack. In a way all of them died as a result of the foreign policy choices of the Republicans and Democrats.
And the worst part is we have a cowardly, ignorant, traitor in the oval office trying to whip the American public into a frenzy to get support for his own terrorist actions. He's made government larger, costlier, and more intrusive than ever before. He created the unconstitutional "Homeland Security" department which is nothing but a department to spy on Americans.
If the "Homeland Security" department is supposed to defend our homeland (which sounds very close to the fatherland), what's our military for? Defending the Empire?
