    Why are we defending Israel against retaliation for their own stupidity?

    Israel is more important to the American government that American citizens.

    It’s why we still support Israel, despite it being one of the main reasons for 9/11.

        Osama Bin Laden’s letter “To the American People.”

        https://www.dni.gov/files/documents/ubl2016/english/To the American people.pdf

        As for us, our Iraq was invaded in response to pressure from capitalists with greed for black gold, and you continue to support the oppressive Israelis in their occupation of our Palestine in response to pressures on your administration by a Jewish lobby backed by enormous financial capabilities.

        They threw hundreds of thousands of soldiers against us and have formed an alliance with the Israelis to oppress us and occupy our land; that was the reason for our response on the eleventh.

        It’s crazy how few people know this in 2024. It should be a lesson to you all about how much information is being manipulated on all sides.

            That does not mean he was right.

            Soooo… where is the lie, exactly?

            Here?

            you continue to support the oppressive Israelis in their occupation of our Palestine

            Or here, perhaps?

            They threw hundreds of thousands of soldiers against us and have formed an alliance with the Israelis to oppress us and occupy our land;

                You still haven’t pointed out his (alleged) lie, hasbara.

                Will this be taking you long?

                    it embraces Sharia law

                    LOL! That’s the (supposed) lie?

                    criticizes US for not embracing sharia law.

                    Heaven’s to Betsy! Are you saying a Muslim person somewhere on this planet sees the world through an Islamic lens?!

                    Say it isn’t so!

                    Also it accuses Jews of controlling the USA’s policies and economy.

                    Oh, finally - sure took you long enough, didn’t it?

                    Now that you’ve managed one… can you spot one that actually backs up your initial claims?

                  If you don’t know whether a billionaire who used their wealth to convince poor kids to kill themselves in the name of a fake deity was good or bad, it definitely says a lot about you, but maturity is not included in that discussion.

                    If you think he’s bad, why not just say so?

                    It seems like you just wanted an opportunity to spread your propaganda rather than discuss in good faith.
