What I hear from you is that 19 Muslims were justified in murdering over 3,000 innocent Americans on September 11, 2001.
No, not sure where you got that from. My point was the U.S. needs to look critically at its foreign policy in the Middle East and see the consequences of it, one such is motivating a Jihad to attack the U.S. and its interests for the reasons I mentioned in my last post. I am not justifying any of the killings they have done, all I am doing is pointing out why they were motivated to do such horrible things.

The bolded is exactly from where I got your justification for 9/11. You make excuses for terrorists.

No, read the whole post where I explicitly state that I am not justifying the horrible things they are doing. Would call you names too, but I am not stepping down to your level.

Your bolded comments above , as quoted below, are contradictory.
You have a Machiavellian talent for splitting hairs.

As much as you would like them to be they are not. Just because something motivates someone to do something does not mean the action is justified. My post pointed out the motivation, but explicitly stated it did not justify the action that came as a result of the motivation.
It just means the motivation is what it is, a motivation. What is the after result of the motivation can determine the action committed. All I am pointing out is the motivation for the action, not justifying the action.

Pointing out the motivation is justifying the action. A bank robber may have a desperate need to buy heroin in Baltimore, that doesn't justify robbing the bank.
