Nizzle your taking the discussion into the larger spectrum. Not within the logic its not OK that the public is lied to. The flip side of that is would a government that had the same situation as Jim Carey had in the movie Liar Liar where dishonesty was impossible would the US be better off? There are past events in Americas history that create generations of conspiracy theories because of facts or lack there of, and theres events that have taken place that everyone knows the government has lied about (or most), but as always bills are more important, who won the super bowl, that was a good episode of Hannity and Combes--whats up next, and the it eventually disappears into history. THis has been going on for a long time on both sides of the political parties . . . and, is it OK were lied no, yes, ? Grab a gun, picket a store, write a congressman who wont listen anyway? Vote--- no comment. . .
IMO the middle east doesnt hate America because of its freedom (there are many people that come from the middle east **not counting terrorists** to attend American Universities. They are coming here; were not going there; and yet in a general sense they hate America; why? Once you answer that question it goes beyond whether you agree with it or not. At the will of others actions the realization occurs that supporting what may be the truth is most likely going to be against the power that has crafted the progression of where not only America is; but those that now dispise it. THen the consideration becomes an awareness if anything a person or persons were to do that would effectively counter the increasing pace of what I see as "the quickening" they therefore invite they're own safety to be compromised.
What do you want to keep you up at night: the feeling of living in an unsafe environment because of retaliation in methods the attackers deem justified; or let politicians and a few others do actions that no one is going to stop anyway in the name of protection but feel it being wrong?
