Gitmo was not there before 9-11, neither was enhanced interogations. I wonder what the left will think of next that we did to cause those nice guy terrorists to attack us on 9-11. Release all of those memos Obama and we will see who is telling the truth.
The anger and hatred that Arabs and Muslims have for the United States is rooted in decades of U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East.

They don't "hate our freedoms". That was just propoganda. Just like WMD's.

Terrorism has actually grown since Bush invaded Iraq. You can deny it all you want. That doesn't make it not true.
Do you know that the bankers that own our country are trying to take muslim countries over? Same way we are trying to control Venesuela and Chavez said no. We are not very kind to people who don't take our offers.
I'm sure they
