Remember when those evil empire Soviets invaded Afghanistan and then waged war against the locals?

Remember when the American CIA began funding and supplying the Afghan muhajadeen with millions and millions of dollars and Stringer missiles to blast Soviet aircraft out of the sky?

Remember how those missiles were so effective that they played a magnificent role in neutralizing the air superiority the Soviets once held?

Then remember one of those muhajadeen America backed turned-out to be a dude name Osama bin Laden and that his merry band of jihadists called al Qaeda were created with the approval of America?

Remember when the incumbent American President took personal credit for killing Osama bin Laden and making the point that al Qaeda's head was then severed, too?

And then remember the same American President authorizing the funding and support and providing the military air cover for al Qaeda of Libya in their quest to overthrow Gaddafi?

Did you know that those same al Qaeda of Libya characters are now leading the rebel movement against the government of Syria? And that the CIA is once more equipping al Qaeda with American-made Stringer missiles to fight against the present state of Syrian air superiority?

It has been many times said that the definition of insanity is repeatedly doing the same thing, but expecting a different outcome...

Yup. I also remember that Ronald Reagan and a certain doctrine were involved in funding and arming the mujahideen.

Oh how quickly they forget.

It was also Clinton who first recommended Bin Ladens termination but the Republican old guard shot it down. It is as if they knew ahead of time that he was to be the scapegoat used to attack Iraq so the Bush family and their cronies could rake in millions on war profits.

Bin Laden was a failure all around. I'll believe to my dying day that they let him escape from Tora Bora.
 
Remember how we (the US) gave Iraq WMD then turned around and invaded them because they had WMD?

The weapons given to Iraq during the Iran-Iraq war had nothing to do with the Bush administrations rationale for invasion in 2003; those weapons were made up.
 
A number of strains of Bacillus anthracis, one of which Iraq used for their anthrax WMD.
 
Biological weapons are, in fact, considered to be WMD.

In fact I know.

Let me familiarize you with this, Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production, Stockpiling and Use of Chemical Weapons and on their Destruction, so you stop looking foolish.
 
Oh yeah, silly me, in thinking the US would ever violate a treaty or convention it agreed to.
You got me.
