QUOTE(Ice_Cold @ 10/15/05 4:49pm)  Hes right we helped the now known al qaeda back in the 70s and 80s bu funding them when russia was attacking the now known Afganistan. Al qaeda back then was funded by the CIA. Also we helped buidl the caves in the afgan mountians. thats why we knew where to look for Al qaeda. A little of with the facts Starting in 1979 the US gave funds to bin Laden to help Afghan resistance fighters, repel the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. This funding ended in 1984 al-Qeada wasn't formed until 1989 which is 5 years after the USA stopped funding the Afghan Resistance 1991 Bin Laden is expelled from Saudi Arabia due to his anti-government activities. 1996 The United States indicts bin Laden on charges of training the people involved in the 1993 attack that killed 18 U.S. servicemen in Somalia. 1998 The United States indicts bin Laden on charges of masterminding the attacks on U.S. embassies al-Qaeda was never funded by our government. -------------------- Not a word was spoken to contradict or disagree with S@bot when he called me a....
bully, dictator, snide, hypocrite, arrogant, smartass and lets not forget, according to him the way I act is reprehensible. Yet, you're going to censor my signature because it's inappropriate and might hurt his little feelings??? Sorry. don't think so QUOTE Druid had my admiration and even though he has always come across as an arrogant, snide and very many times a smartass in posts and pm's S@bot aka Little Silver |

Worse than giving them money, we taught them how to harass and bog down an invading army.

It appears that the days of regular army on army warfare are over. That countries like the US, China, Russia have made their militaries so large that there is no one else large enough to present a challenge, which is why you see so many people resorting to guerilla/terrorist tactics to, not defeat but annoying their enemy into quitting the fight. An intelligent tactic but one that will not draw the favor of others. The only way to really combat it is to become more guerilla/terrorist like ourselves. For example its the same as saying the best way to kill a sniper is with another sniper.
