Like I said before, disavowing or refusal to acknowledge 50 years of using them as pawns in the cold war is only perpetuating the myth that the US has zero culpability in why terrorism against the US exists.
You, sir, are helping to perpetuate that myth or you're just plain stupid about it. now which is it?
Wait! I think I got a glimpse of what you're saying! You still didn't come out and say it, but I see something in there about the Cold War. I'm "full of shit" for what reasons, again?
Now, if you could talk more elaborately about our Cold War policies in the Middle East, I'll explain my point.
I don't think you see what's going on. You're hardly making any points for me to counter, and when I try, you claim I'm either full of shit, or the figurative noun of bullshit. It is hard to counter a point when no point is given.
I don't believe us supporting Arabs against communism was using them as pawns. And I don't think that is their problem with us, the fact that during the Cold War, we paid little attention to them. Had we not supported dictators such as Saddam, communism would have taken over the Middle East.
