...understanding yourself.

You post a list of things that the US has done in the region that, you say, gives those in the region a reason to hate us. Do you think that, in this context, that does anything OTHER than attempt to excuse their behavior? Obviously you think you can do one without the other...I seem to disagree.

You also call W a liar...based upon misquotes of his speech....and then tell me I need to comprehend things better.

Wow.
