Murderous Quixotes

The murderers in France were closely linked to Al Qa'ida.

For over 13 years we have been fighting, but whom have we been fighting?

We have been in Afghanistan since October, 2001, fighting the Taliban, who are:
(1) not Al Qa'ida,
(2) had no role in the 9/11 attacks.

We invaded Saddam Hussein's Iraq. Saddam Hussein was:
(1) not Al Qa'ida,
(2) had no role in the 9/11 attacks.

We have supported civil war in Syria by supporting insurgents, a great portion of which has become the Islamic State. We did this to remove Bashar Al Assad from power, and he is:
(1) not Al Qa'ida,
(2) had no role in the 9/11 attacks.


An ominous pattern takes shape. No Enigma Code here. It is quite obvious.

It is as if every politician in Washington D.C., every member of the Likud, every blow-hard right-wing media mouthpiece was handed a "wish list" soon after 9/11, whereon they could mark down whom we should spend trillions of $ fighting wars against.

Peop-le have spoken for years about focus, and we hear them again, but it is so much easier and rewarding to use the martial ardor of the populace to go crusades like some dim-witted Quixotes of murderous intent.


Oh, and we did kill Osama bin Laden, who was:
(1) indeed Al Qa'ida,
(2) had a major role in the 9/11 attacks.
