You mean 9/11/2001 isn't enough? Or the paucity of oil in Afghanistan?

Can you guarantee to me that the U.S. government did not kill over 250 000 civilians in the Gulf War. For that they were convicted of 19 War Crimes charges by the International War Crimes Tribunal ie using illegal weapons such as napalm on civilians and instigating the war in the first place.

I'm guessing the US does not recognize this body, therefore was unrepresented. It's fairly obvious that the US did not instigate the Gulf War, unless you consider the Iraqi seizure of Kuwait to be a fait accompli at the time, and then the re-invasion to be an entirely separate act -- which is a rather idiotic way of looking at it.
