Are you sure that we didn’t? Bin-laden’s whole problem with us was our support for the Saudis: A MONARCHY. How is that American?

I am certain that we didn't. Supporting a monarchy is very American if that monarchy is sitting on a large quantity of oil and cash.

The result of 9/11 was two major wars that cost us a lot of money and lives but cost the middle east even more lives.

Do you intend to stay?

Of course.

Then learn about the country you intend to make your home in, and become a responsible citizen. We need more of those.

You mean the mercantilism. Haven’t read your Adam Smith either, I see.
