[Historical] 18th Anniversary of 9/11: When America trembled

On this day in History, 17th years ago, 19 Al-Qaeda militants hijacked four commercial planes. Two of the planes hit the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, located in Manhattan, New York. A third plane hit the Pentagon and a fourth plane, presumably heading against the White House, hit the ground around Shanksville, Pennsylvania, thanks to reported passenger-uprising.

Around 3000 people, of up to 70 different nationalities, died in these attacks. The September 11 attacks rendered huge economic loss in Stock Exchange market, that closed for the rest of the week, and led to a huge crash in Airline and Insurance sectors. It economically harmed the Manhattan area, with the loss of office-buildings.

The September 11 might be one of the most significant events of the beginning our century, having led to the so-called War on Terror, that culminated in the Invasion of Afghanistan, the Iraq War and the stiff-up attitude towards countries like Iran and North Korea and can also be connected to the ever-growing intervention of the US and the western world in the Middle East, further destabilizing the region, to some extent.

This particular historical event still causes ramifications today, having originated an over-interventionism by the US and its western allies, destabilizing and polarizing the Middle East up to this day.

It was the starting event-point for the though up of anti-terrorism laws and regulations.

(Honestly, the Arab Spring would have never happened with the magnitude it had, had it not been due to the actions of the US & NATO in Libya for instance, as Khadafi was perceived as a terror-supporter, which he was, with the Lockerbie attack..)

It was the deadliest terrorist incident (so far).

They didn't do it because they wanted something. They did it because they were either at war with them or because they had to. Al Qaeda was and is a terrorist group, and does it to many other countries. The United States doesn't slaughter people either. Don't go around saying shit like that, the US doesn't kill innocents nor does it attack people without reason. Nor did the US come up with a shitty excuse of "supporting this and that, which is against my religious beliefs"

Yes, of course, America murdered innocents in wars like Vietnam. But in all fairness, it's a war (many of the cases for the innocents murdered there was because some Civilians themselves were helping fight the war against the US and American soldiers, did go wild at times, despite orders. American Soldiers, like Vietnam soldiers as well, go insane in a while and can't hold back. much like in the Middle East today, where they have children and wives and husbands, attach bombs to themselves and go on a suicide mission). And that's still in reason. Al Qaeda, on the other hand, did not have a valid one.

In what way does it make it right to kill people for SUPPORTING something?

America invaded Iraq in 1990 and then sanctioned them for 10 years, then meddled in Afghanistan during their civil war, and bombed Libya in 1987, collecting muslim hatred in the process. It is logical to conclude that at one point, one way or another the enemy will do or try to retaliate. None of that would happen if America didn't went full colonialism.

I've read articles on the mistakes that happened in Yemen. Intelligence told the opposing side that specific thing was what they were looking for and simply in the end, had mistaken it for something else. In the end, it's war. The People of the earth, are free to do as they wish. They can migrate to other places. Everyone on this planet knows, if you're in the middle of a war, you have a chance of being killed even if you're not involved. The Yemeni situation, proved that to be correct. Even if the opposing side meant it or not. Same goes for the Iraqi civilians. Fighting a war is hard and confusing. I have met many soldiers who fought in Iraq. Some said they went searching house to house, looking for people that needed to be killed. Sometimes, they got the wrong person who looked like them or got the wrong information. The US doesn't intentionally kill innocents. There are reasons behind it.

Syrian Troops were killed by a US-led coalition, not the US. The US does not have total control over any country, so they could carry out their own strikes if they very well wanted to.

America invaded Iraq in 1990 because they invaded Kuwait. They defended Kuwait. The Sanctions were to get Iraq to leave Kuwait originally, and grew into to pay Reparations and to get rid of weapons of mass destruction via economic downfall.

The US also meddled in Afghanistan during the civil war (which I'm assuming you're talking about Operation Cyclone, which was during the USSR Military Intervention of the country) because it was backing the side against it's greatest enemy, the USSR.

And the bombing of Libya in 1987 was in retaliation of the West Berlin discotheque bombing which killed US Military Personnel.

The only thing that accuses the US of kidnapping Moro, was a claim on a book. A simple claim. Nothing else (from what I can find)

As for for Congolese Prime Minister Killing, it has been proven there a possibility of the CIA conspiring to kill him, but it's a possibility. Other countries too have looked into this, and could not find a direct link. Though the PM was thought to be a potential communist by the US and went to the USSR for aid, it was potential.

for South Korean's killing Pro Communists and Pro North Koreans, I have searched and cannot find anything on it. Maybe you can give me an article. Though I can tell you it's illegal to support North Korea in South Korea. Same thing for Bodo.

Just as America is terrorizing many countries.

-> Repression in Czechoslovakia back then
-> Hungarian Revolution repression
-> Communist-backed coups throughout the world
-> Support for terroristic groups of marxistic inspirations in Angola, Mozambique and other African nations
-> Moral and Supply support to North Korea, a terrorist-regime that holds concentration camps and enforces forced-labour, coined as the last Stalinistic country
-> Support for radical groups of marxist inspiration in Europe and Latin America, namely Colombian guerrillas for instance or corrupt governments like Venezuela.
-> Some link-threads to radical marxist terror groups in Indonesia-Malaysia
-> Support to China until the Sino-Russian schism of the 60's.

And due to fact you're debately-inept to fully aprehend an argument without hitting with propagandistic-rethoric, just as a disclaimer: By pinpointing the terroristic/interventionistic actions of another country (that coincidentally you love and praise), I'm not denying the actions of America, who has, indeed, over-interviened in affairs exclusive to other sovereign countries. But then again, there's no way in how you can deny the repression on the Hungarians and Czechs and the Political-Military support given by the Soviet Union to the Eastern Bloc communist governments (and other african countries) who repressed on their people. That counts for terrorism too, little Andy, In an argument, try for sure to pinpoint your focus, but don't dish out on your own (major) flaws.

Getting your information from Sputnik and RT and close-politically aligned journals does not make it correct. 1 million civilians? Do you even know how to count? I'm not denying America hasn't committed civilian deaths, infact, America has a considerable secret war-logistic that allows them to stealthly blow up encampments if required and buildings, but they are never done without the heavy ponderation of the probability of having civilian presence in those sites. For sure America has caused the death of thousands of civilians, directly and indirectly, but not in the stake of a million, or even half a million, should I say..

It's quite funny that you're referring that way of America doing politics or fetching casus belli to intervene in other countries. It reminds me of when Stalin's Russia just steamrolled through Europe and installed the local communist parties in power by resorting to terror and military occupation, forced the establishments out and destroyed national politic institutions like the Monarchy in Romania or State values in countries like Czechoslovakia or Poland..

Russia did exactly the same thing with the Eastern Bloc, forcing governments in and out if they weren't as pro-soviet, even trying to do it with Tito's Yugoslavia..

Andy, we understand you've been for years brainwashed and instrumentalized to hate everything that comes from the Western Hemisphere and praise your own terf as sacred, but enough with your double-standards.
