76. wow - that was quite a leap you made there
He never said he "approved of the murder of 3,000"

He pointed out the obvious issue we all should have been addressing - what are the ramifications of our actions around the world. When our leaders bomb countries or get involved in conflicts we have no business in (oh wait except there might oil involved) we put thousands of innocent lives in jeopardy or worse kill them.

Were the terrorists right to attack us? No. Do the civilians of other countries that we have intervened in have a right to be angry at our government? Yes.

We cannot put our heads in the sand and ignore the effect our actions have on the world.
