    Europeans have very little room to make any comments about anything America does, because take what we do, multiply it by 1000, then you might get close to the fucked up shit going on in Europe during most of last century.
    Especially coming from someone who must have be 12 years old, because they are a bit clueless about the events of the past decade.
    A history lesson:
    America sent special forces to Afghanistan to assist the Northern Alliance depose the Talaban in October of 2001. This was to disrupt the Al-Qaeda network, who attacked Washington and New York on September 11th, 8 years ago today. During the attack Osama bin laden slipped into the tribal areas of Pakistan, and we have not been able apprehend him there, fearing destabilizing a nuclear armed state.

    Bush sardonically exploited fears of terrorism and weapons of mass destruction to Invade Iraq in 2003, (9-3=6, btw). For a history of this, and how it was indeed a total clusterfuck, visit the film "no end in sight". The website http://www.iraqbodycount.org currently holds the tally for total deaths as a result of the war at 101,539, not half a million.
