Bin Laden brought peace to Ireland, not Blair

[poster342002]

Just a thought about all this:

I wonder how Bin Laden would feel about being credited with bringing peace to a land of infidel heathens ...?

I think all ObL has ever wanted is peace. He just doesn't consider 'peace' to be possible with the empire endlessly impinging on Islam itself, Islamic culture, countries, values. Check out Saudi, Iraq/Iran pre-9/11, Israel/Palestine, more peripherally Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Pakistan, and on and on and on . . . if it has oil, the empire has to control the supply.

Seems a pretty, simple man-of-the-people "Leave us the fuck alone" kinda policy.

*8den, i admit to my own shame and detriment I admit i forgot about the McCarthy's, whose agonizing and courageous struggle for justice, I would concede, did more to pop any romanticized bubble subscribed to on the other side pond than anyone involved in 9/11.





How many active trouble spots do you go out your way to physically involve yourself in to be a man of peace?

9/11 didn't bring peace to Ireland but it certainly helped the speed of which the IRA where willing to decomission weapons.
