Still working the Big Lie, eh Gerson? Yes, 9/11 was a tragedy and quite possibly avoidable if your then boss had been paying attention, but it was in no way a Pearl Harbor. It was a golden opportunity for you neo-cons to have the war you'd wanted since the first Gulf war, and to get it you lied. You lied and got your war and then bungled and mis-mismanaged the occupation and so set the stage for ISIS. You lied and hundreds of thousands of people have died, and hundreds of thousands have been forced to flee for their lives. And here you are again, still with the lie that this was somehow all justified because 11 young men carried out a suicide attack, and again, tragic as that was, there was no follow up attack. There was no grand strategy other than provoking the US into a stupid war to unite muslims in a jihadist war against America. And you and your cohort of war criminals, let them get exactly what they wanted. Do us all a favor Michael, have some sense of shame and just shut up.
