i hope you included the words of Osama bin Laden
\nwhen he told us 9\/11 was about our military on Saudi soil
\nand our partisan supporting of Israel
\nwe are like a bad marriage
\nthe left and the right
\nsometimes never seeing before the divorce
\nthere is always a grain of truth on both sides
\nor maybe you have said about JFK
\nthat he inherited the Bay of Pigs from Ike
\nwhich caused the missile stand off
\nand that you mention Eisenhower’s
\n“military-industrial complex”
\nweird
\nOsama chose to hit our military (pentagon)
\nand industrial (twin trade towers)
\non 9\/11 (our emergency code)
\nand yes, terrorists who would blow themselves up are scary
\nand no, there has not been another attack since 9\/11
\non the other side of this coin
\nare a lot of weeping children, parents, grand parents
\nand great grand parents…
\nin America, in Iraq, in Afghanistan
\nto mention only three…<\/p>\n
