The reference was regarding Al-Qaeda not the Taliban.
Do you have a point?

Al-Qaeda is a floating colony of the CIA.

The CIA is its own country.

Judging from your posts you have both made up your mind and are poorly read so I suppose it would be impossible to have an intelligent exchange with you.

Look at the School of the Americas, Iraq, Afghanistan.
We are uninvited into the land of others where we kill them.

Terrorist is defined by the oppressed.

What happened to it? It was never true, it is not true now, and it never will be. You'll find that when there's something to be gained, anyone is worth talking to. See: The Contras, the Taliban, Osama bin-Laden, the Taliban again under Bush after the start of the war, various sectarian factions in Iraq under Bush during the insurgency there(we were essentially paying them not to blow us up), Libya under Bush after they agreed to scrap their nuclear program, and his is just the stuff that I can think of immediately for a drive by post.

Anyone who says this is either lying or exaggerating our own power to mythical proportions.

PS: You dimwits that have to make everything about whoever happens to be the current president are missing the broader failure of US foreign policy.

UN authorized invasion of both Iraq and Afghanistan.

School of Americas was a Cold War exercise needed to meet Communist endeavors and avoid sending U.S. troops overseas.

You need to read more deeply into history and international relations.

When you actually make an intelligent point perhaps we'll find out. All I see so far is you apparently believe invading/occupying a country based on lies and imagined associations with countryless groups shouldn't be considserd terrorism.

You might benefit from removing your jingoistic blinders.
And please learn how to quote properly.

Terrorist strikes against the US and/or possessions occured years before the invasions. Otherwise, the U.S. was allowed to operate in Muslim countries.

You also need to read much history and international relations. You are the stupid one here.
